No parents or spectators will be permitted behind the starting blocks or on the deck area behind the starting blocks. No swimmer will be permitted to swim in any heat or lane other than the one they are listed for.
Safety: No diving from the blocks or the sides of either pool except for designated sprint lanes during designated times, or during competition. Jumping into either pool is not allowed. Enter feet first from a seated position.
