The Rules

SWIM TEAM & GENERAL POOL RULES

In recognition of our wonderful, state-of-the art aquatics facility, please respect the following house rules—in order to better preserve and maintain the clean & safe standards that we enjoy now. Failing to adhere to the rules below will result in reduced privileges for the entire swim team. Please be sure to discuss each of these rules with your children prior to the first day of practice, in order to eliminate future problems. We plan to have another exciting summer in our TURBO fast, super-sized pool, so lets show our gratitude to the City of Fairhope by displaying our utmost respect and a genuine concern towards the continued & successful upkeep and maintenance of our valuable facility.

Thank you!! Your cooperation is highly appreciated.

Let’s have a safe, enjoyable summer for our 14th season in our beautiful aquatics facility!!
