WELCOME

The Stillwater Starz is a developmental summer swim team and a member of the Naperville Swim Conference (NSC). A volunteer-driven 501(c)(3) nonprofit, our mission is to develop confident, capable young swimmers and foster a love of competitive swimming in a safe, supportive, and fun environment.

Our swimmers range from 4-18 years of age, and most are residents of the Stillwater subdivision and other nearby communities in southwest Naperville, Plainfield, and Oswego. For our youngest swimmers, their time on the Starz is often their first experience with competitive swimming. It’s also where many of our returning swimmers, some of whom now swim year-round in club and school programs, got their start. Join us this summer, and find out what fun you can have when we shoot for the Starz together!

Good Afternoon, Starz Families!

You can can take care of registration right now by CLICKING HERE.

 

APPAREL & INFORMATION NIGHT IS TUESDAY

This Tuesday, April 8, is Apparel and Info Night at the Stillwater Clubhouse. From 5:00 to 7:00, families can drop in at their convenience to order suits, caps, spiritwear, and other essentials with the convenience of in-person payment and personalized try-on for sizing. If you're unsure what size is best for your swimmer or how competitive swimsuits should fit, please stop by. If you're unable to join us on Tuesday, our swim and spirit wear provider, Eich's Sports, has convenient brick-and-mortar locations in Plainfield and Lemont that allow easy follow-up for families who register later in the spring or who aren't able to make Apparel Night. 

Orders placed at apparel night will be delivered to the Stillwater Club and distributed to swimmers during the first week of practice.

 

TEAM STORE NOW OPEN

Suits

Official team suits (for meets), caps (required for girls), and other Starz apparel for kids AND adults can be purchased from our official team apparel provider, Eich's Sports. 2025 team suits are Speedo brand in navy blue with red trim, prominently emblazoned with our team logo.

Starz team suits are required for meets. If you don’t wish to order a team suit this year, any one-piece navy blue suit is acceptable for meets. If your swimmers' suits from previous Starz seasons still fit, they're more than welcome to wear them again!

 

Caps

All swimmers receive one latex cap with registration, but ordering extra caps is always a good idea. Additional latex and personalized/non-personalized silicone caps are available for order online NOW (see below).
