WHAT Equipment & Apparel

Team Suits, Gear & Apparel

WHAT offers families an easy way to purchase all the suits, gear, and apparel needed for both practice and competition. As an Arena-sponsored team, we’ve partnered with B&R Pools, a local Pittsburgh swim shop, to provide high-quality products at an exclusive discounted rate for our members.

What's Required?

• Competition Suit – Swimmers must have a suit for meets. If families do not wish to purchase the official team suit, swimmers may wear a plain black or blue suit for competition. (Please note: team suits should not be worn to practice, as this shortens their lifespan.)
• Training Gear – Swimmers should have:
• Kickboard
• Pull buoy
• Paddles
• Snorkel
• Fins
• Goggles
• Caps
• Mesh bag to hold equipment

Optional but Encouraged

While not required, we strongly encourage families to purchase team apparel such as warm-ups, parkas, and swim bags. Presenting a unified look on deck helps build team pride, confidence, and a strong sense of community. A spirit wear store is also coming soon, giving families the opportunity to show their WHAT pride throughout the season!

How to Order

Families can order items for the 2025–2026 season as follows:

• Required training equipment (kickboard, pull buoy, paddles, snorkel, fins, goggles, mesh bags) can be purchased through the Team Store link or directly at B&R Pools.
