Swimming Pool: Family Swim Admission Policy<br />
1. Background<br />
The Institute of Sport and Recreation Management<br />
has recently reviewed the <strong>admission</strong> <strong>policy</strong> for<br />
children using <strong>swimming</strong> pools.<br />
The purpose of a Child Admission Policy is to help<br />
safeguard children who historically are most at risk<br />
of drowning in <strong>swimming</strong> pools. It is not intended<br />
to prevent children from having fun and enjoying<br />
the exercising and socialising aspects of <strong>swimming</strong><br />
and its benefits in health terms. Nor is it intended<br />
to make life difficult for parents/carers.<br />
By following the guidelines herein we believe that,<br />
with the help of parents/carers we can provide<br />
the opportunities for children to learn to swim,<br />
develop <strong>swimming</strong> skill, and have fun in the safest<br />
possible environment.<br />
2. The Policy<br />
2.1 The Institute strongly recommends that all juniors<br />
should be accompanied by a responsible person when<br />
attending the <strong>swimming</strong> pools.<br />
2.2 A responsible person, aged at least 16 years MUST<br />
accompany all children under the ages of 8 years. They<br />
must go into the water with the children they are<br />
accompanying. Whilst in the pool the responsible person<br />
should maintain a constant watch over the children<br />
and be in close contact with those of their children who<br />
are weak or non-swimmers. The responsible person<br />
may be responsible for<br />
(i) one child under the age of 4 years or<br />
(ii) two children aged 4-7 years.<br />
2.3 All non swimmers must be restricted to designated<br />
safe areas of the pool.<br />
2.4 Non swimmers and weak swimmers must not go<br />
out of their depth with the exception of the very young<br />
who by virtue of their size are out of their depth in even<br />
the shallowest area of the pool.<br />
2.5 A non swimmer or weak swimmer is defined as<br />
someone who is unable to achieve the following standards<br />
to the satisfaction of pool staff:<br />
(i) jump from the pool side into water 1.5m or more<br />
(ii) tread water for 1 minute<br />
Did you know?<br />
3. Family Swim Admission<br />
To try to maintain a family friendly environment we<br />
only allow access to groups which <strong>inc</strong>lude adults<br />
and children, up to the maximum capacity of 35<br />
people. Please Note that due to consistent<br />
behavioural issues no participants under the age of<br />
16 will be allowed access to Family Swim sessions<br />
without a responsible adult.<br />
4. Children’s use of the changing rooms<br />
Responsible persons accompanying children under<br />
8 years old to the <strong>swimming</strong> pool will be able to<br />
take them into an ‘opposite sex’ changing room if<br />
there is no other responsible person with them to<br />
take them into the ‘same sex’ changing room. This<br />
is because it is reasonable to assume that a child<br />
too young to swim unaccompanied is too young to<br />
fend for him or herself in a changing room<br />
5. Code Of Conduct<br />
It is the responsibility of every swimmer to respect<br />
the rules of the pool and their fellow swimmers:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Always listen to Lifeguards.<br />
Shower before you swim.<br />
Follow Pool Rules.<br />
Swim in an appropriate manner<br />
Use appropriate language<br />
All public swim sessions <strong>inc</strong>luding Adult Swims, Family Swims and Ladies Only Swims are free for all<br />
All participants must collect a ticket from reception. Tickets are allocated on a first come first served <strong>policy</strong> from 30 minutes before the session is due to start. All swims have a maximum capacity which can not be exceeded. Access to the <strong>swimming</strong> pool will not be allowed without a ticket.
