Tips for a Gala: What to Take

It is important that you are always prepared at every gala you go to. So here’s a quick checklist to make sure you have everything you need:

  • Towels for poolside
  • Towels to get dressed with
  • Costume/trunks for warm up
  • Costume/trunks for racing
  • Goggles (BRING SPARES)
  • Hat (BRING SPARES)
  • Team Kit (T-shirt and shorts)
  • Shoes for poolside
  • Drinks
  • Snacks for poolside
  • Lunch if necessary
  • Dry clothes to change into

Because a lot of swimmers often lose their hat and goggles, we ask that they keep their hat in the pocket in their shorts and wrap their goggles around their wrist, so they should never lose them because they always have them with them.
