Entry

Please do not attend the facility if you or a family member are unwell.
Ensure you have a pre-booked session to gain entry.
Please download the App and use the access barcode to reduce contact.
If you intend to swim for less than 1hr we request, you attend 5/10 min after the hour entry time to help reduce queue times.
Please do NOT congregate with other customers pre/post swim or turn up too early for your session.
Please sanitise/ wash hands pre and post swim.
Please come ‘beach ready’ i.e. wearing your costume or swim shorts under your clothes. Limited changing rooms available at your facility in our opening phase.
Please bring a bag to store your clothing and belongings which will remain on poolside as lockers will not be available.
When you see a green card at the poolside, it is safe to leave your belongings here. Red cards mean the area has been used and needs cleaned.
Do not bring any valuables into the centre.
Please bring a towel to dry off and be prepared to go home in your swim wear and clothes over the top if changing rooms are not available.
Bring a filled water bottle with you.
Bottles can be left at the end of a lane for rehydration if needed.

All members must ensure that you have read and understood the pool operation during this time.
All members and visitors must always maintain social distance rules and follow all instructional signage and requests from poolside staff.
You must swim in the same direction.
Please do not overtake the person in front of you and remain a good distance behind them.
Please choose the lane that suits your ability or preference.
If you need to stop at the end of a lane, please keep near a lane rope so you can avoid swimmers turning at the end of the lane.
Please do not have more than two people at the end of each lane who are resting and keep at least a 1 metre apart.
Please ensure you bring your own float as these will not be available for you at the centre.
Please keep front crawl leg kick under the surface to avoid splashing the person behind you – you may go faster too!
Keep an eye of the time and exit the pool with 5 mins to go to the end of your hour session. This will give you time to dry off and move away from the entrance before the next session begins.
The centre may blow a whistle to let you know you have reached the 5 min marker.
Please leave the pool promptly by the designated steps at the end of your session.

Showers will not be available in any area of the building so please plan to shower when you get home.
If there are no changing rooms available, then please dry off on the deck and if you have a modesty towel then please use this to towel off and re dress.
When you finish, please turn the green card around to let the staff know to clean this area before the next customer arrives.
As you leave the facility please Wash/sanitise your hands as you go.
Please follow the exit route that has been marked for you to enable a social distance between customers.
