We find 104 Swift clusters with a &gt;3{sigma} galaxy over-density. The remaining targets are potentially located at higher redshifts and require deeper optical follow-up observations for confirmation as galaxy clusters. We present a series of cluster properties including the redshift, brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) magnitude, BCG-to-X-ray center offset, optical richness, and X-ray luminosity. We also detect red sequences in ~85% of the 104 confirmed clusters. The X-ray luminosity and optical richness for the SDSS confirmed Swift clusters are correlated and follow previously established relations. The distribution of the separations between the X-ray centroids and the most likely BCG is also consistent with expectation. We compare the observed redshift distribution of the sample with a theoretical model, and find that our sample is complete for z&lt;~0.3 and is still 80% complete up to z~0.4, consistent with the SDSS survey depth. These analysis results suggest that our Swift cluster selection algorithm has yielded a statistically well-defined cluster sample for further study of cluster evolution and cosmology. We also match our SDSS confirmed Swift clusters to existing cluster catalogs, and find 42, 23, and 1 matches in optical, X-ray, and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich catalogs, respectively, and so the majority of these clusters are new detections.</description><source format="bibcode">2016ApJS..222...13G</source><referenceURL>https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJS/222/13</referenceURL><type>Catalog</type><contentLevel>Research</contentLevel><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/TAP">TAP VizieR generic service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource>Conesearch service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>related-to</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/IX/43">IX/43 : 1SXPS Swift X-ray telescope point source catalogue (Evans+ 2014)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/VIII/91">VIII/91 : Planck Catalog of Compact Sources Release 1 (Planck, 2013)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJS/218/8">J/ApJS/218/8 : Swift AGN and Cluster Survey (SACS).
