Club Notes for March / Team Apparel

Team Apparel:

CMA (Jinny) has introduced an updated design and color for the team sweatshirt and T-shirt for 2025.  Mock-ups are shown at the bottom of this page.  The prices are:

T-shirt: $15

Hoodie/Crewneck: $32

The color shown on the mock-ups are approximate but the shade is called "denim blue" and appears to be lighter for the T-shirt and darker for the hoodie.

The shirt is 100% cotton, and the hoodie is a poly/cotton blend.  The sizes range from S - 5XL.  Any size above XL will have a fabric fee. The pricing follows suit with the size (for example 2XL- $2.00 extra, 3XL-$3.00 extra, 5XL-$5.00 extra).

 

You can email swimcma@gmail.com if you are interested and/or communicate your interest to Rhonda at practice. We are looking to satisfy the vendor minimum (12 of each) for the order.
