Glamour for our events? Whether you want to winch it up or let it flow in small, medium, large, or extra-large, in either color on white or color on black, you can’t go wrong because who doesn’t need options for our events? T-shirt, tank-top, for event or two, you decide. We are here to save you from last years colors, even on the latex stretch cap for a better look. This is where you’ll be able to order it all, including your event tickets, if you get here in time.

Volunteers

Whether you just want the best seat at the pool behind the blocks with a stopwatch in your hand or you want to reach deeper and help us serve up a great time to all those flying, driving, or trucking to the desert for IGLA 2022, we can figure out how you can help welcome the swimmers, polo players, and exhibitionists out in the sun or under the stars. Join us here.

Sponsors

Thank you to those who make it happen and those that label our sleeves, logo butts, trademark our foreheads, copyright our towels, sign our lanes, trick out our swag, serve up our eats, beam up our drinks, name our signs, give us fly, chill us out, and hunter up a great time as we cruise on down the road. Yes, we understand and remember that life happens between the euphoria of victory and the crushing agony of defeat, and you must know that even when we say that was dreadful as we crawl out of the water, we will be back for more, because who doesn’t need more. PS we love you!
