Basic Swimming Kit At least two towels Costume for the warm-up A seperate costume for racing Goggles plus a spare pair in case your race pair breaks Club hat plus spare Poolside shoes - e.g. trainers or flip-flops Club T-Shirt plus spare Shorts or tracksuit bottoms
Food & Drink Eat plenty of carbohydrates over the competition period, before/during/after Typical foods, which increase the body's energy stores, are: Rice, Pasta, Bagels, Breakfast Cereals, Cakes, Bananas, Pineaple, Popcorn, Pizzas Don't rely on feeling thirsty as a reminder to replace fluid loss The trick is to drink little and often Fizzy drinks are not advised. Water, diluted squash or sports drinks are the safest bet
Other Bits Remember your race entry cards if needed Ensure your cards are posted at the correct time Swimmers must report to their coach before and after each race Swimmers should behave in an appropriate manner at all times Team Managers will have responsibility for the behaviour and safety of all swimmers during the event At longer meets swimmers may wish to bring reading material or a personal hi-fi for which they are responsible
