Here are a few rules, which we expect all swimmers to
follow
Arrive on
poolside 5 minutes before the start (where the session allows). Find out what the warm-up is and have your
hat and goggles on ready to start the session.
At this point flexibility exercise can commence.
Swimmers may be refused entry to a session if they
are late. This is in the interests of Health & Safety of all swimmers in
the pool.
Swimmers are expected to complete a full training
session. Swimmers are not permitted to
swim for an hour where the session is a two-hour session etc. It is important the swimmers complete the
full session and finish with a swim down.
Bring everything you need onto the
poolside. No one should need to get out
during a one hour session – for the toilet or any other reason. Go to the toilet before the start. If you get out without a genuine reason, you
may not be allowed to continue the session.
No walking at the beginning or end of swims and no
diving under the water halfway down the pool.
If you continue to do this you will be sent out.
All starts should be from the wall, all finishes
should be on the wall. Make room for
the incoming swimmer to finish. Proper
turns should be attempted at all times
Get into your proper order for the swim. Swimmers
cannot give maximum effort if they are being held up be another swimmers
If a swimmer from behind catches you up, let him/her
go before you in the next swim. Do
not pull on swimmers feet, this is dangerous and may drag them under. Only overtake when safe to do so. At no time should a swimmer stop and
bob up and down in the water to let someone pass as this is dangerous.
These are the Club Training
Rules
(If there is a problem – see
the Coach before the session)
