During swim team practice all lanes in the competition pool will be closed. Swim Testing In order to ensure the safety of each swimmer, children under the age of 12 must be swim tested by Aquatic staff prior to entering the family and competition pools. Each child will receive a neckband that will designate the area of the pool they are able to able to swim in. Please be sure that your child wears their neckband each time they come to the pool. If a child loses their band, a replacement can be obtained from the gatehouse. YMCA of Greater Richmond swim test Swim Test: For anyone under the age of 12 who would like to go off the slides or diving board. Jump in, tread water for 15 seconds then swim one full length of the pool (GREEN). Jump in, tread water for 15 seconds then swim ½ length (YELLOW). Those that do not take the swim test, or do not pass the swim test must be in a lifejacket and within arm s reach of an adult at all times. GREEN BANDS - A child can swim wherever they like without a parent in the water with them, slides and diving boards allowed. YELLOW BANDS A child can swim where they can stand (shoulders out) but need to be accompanied by a parent when swimming where they cannot. They have access to slides and diving boards as long as they are required to exit the deep water after use. LIFEJACKET POLICY A child who is unable to obtain a green or yellow band must always be supervised by an adult. Any child wearing a lifejacket must be within arm s reach of an adult in the water at all times. Birthday Parties For your convenience, we will host your child's birthday party at the pool. Please contact the Nancy Melzer, (804) 419-8564 or melzern@ymcarichmond.org for more information. Children Page 4

Parents are responsible for the behavior and conduct of their children. Children, under the age of 12, must be accompanied and supervised by a guardian (16 years or older) at all times. Please remember, lifeguards are on duty to prevent and respond to emergencies/accidents. Adult Swims The lifeguards may call a 10-minute adult swim each hour, during peak times. During adult swims all sections of the pool including the shallow section by the steps and the slide well are closed to those under 16. Small children may sit by the side of the pool, but not in the water (this includes putting feet in the water, etc.). Adult swims allow parents a relaxing period in the pool while allowing children a break from the constant activity and exhaustion that pool play may elicit. Adult swim is an excellent opportunity to make sure small children use the restroom. Children under the age of 2 with adult supervision will be allowed in the separate baby pool during adult swims. During adult swim, swimmers MAY NOT move to the baby pools, unless they are infants or toddlers in the care of their parent. PLEASE DO NOT PLACE THE LIFEGUARDS IN THE POSITION OF ASKING YOU TO REMOVE YOUR CHILDREN FROM EITHER POOL DURING ADULT SWIM. Pool Furniture While the pool has hundreds of pieces of pool furniture, there may be times during peak usage when a chair may not be available. We also ask that you be considerate of others and follow the one person - one chair rule. Please refrain from using chairs, tables, or picnic tables as towel hangers and bag holders. Pool Rules To provide for a safe pool environment for all, the following pool rules will be enforced: Children under the age of 12 MUST be accompanied and supervised by a guardian 16 years of age or older at all times while in the pool area. Only US Coast Guard approved flotation devices (lifejackets) are allowed during open swim; any participant requiring a personal flotation device MUST have a guardian within arms reach while in the pool. Lifeguards will be glad to check your floatation device to see if it is Coast Guard approved (water wings are not CG approved). **Please note this rule is strictly enforced** No flotation device (including those that are Coast Guard approved) will be allowed when going off the slide or diving boards. Parents will not be allowed to catch children from the water slide or diving boards. No diving in water less than 9 feet deep. Mask, fins, snorkels, kickboards, and pull buoys may be used ONLY by lap swimmers. Only approved water toys are permitted in the recreational area. Because of potential injury to others there is no throwing of hard objects such as frisbees, footballs, etc. in the pool. Toys are not permitted in the lap pool. Page 5

No breath holding techniques ( dead man s float ) are allowed in YMCA pools, as these techniques may cause patrons to become hypoxic and lose consciousness. Swimmers of questionable swimming ability may be asked by a lifeguard to take a swim test if they wish to swim outside of the shallow section. Children must wear the Little Swimmers diapers under a regular bathing suit if they are not potty trained. Running, pushing, pulling, dunking, and general hazardous play is unacceptable and will not be permitted at the YMCA. Band-Aids and bandages must be removed prior to entering the pool. Persons with open sores will not be permitted to use the pools. Front or back flips, back dives, twisting jumps, and inwards are not allowed from the side of the pool. Swimmers must enter the water feet first. Only one person will be allowed in the slide area at a time. All slides MUST BE FEET FIRST AND FACE UP. Head first slides are not allowed. Once a slide is completed, the member is to exit to the side of the pool at the ladder. Then once the slide area is cleared, the next slider may begin a slide. Goggles may not be worn on the slide or diving board, as impact between the water and face could cause eye injury if goggles are worn. Proper bathing attire is required. Cut-off pants, jean shorts, cotton cover-ups, etc. are not permitted in the pool. Please use discretion when selecting bathing attire for the pool. Remember, the Y promotes a family environment for all ages. No food is permitted in the swimming pool (actual swimming area or pool edge). ALCOHOL AND SMOKING ON YMCA PROPERTY, INCLUDING THE PARKING LOT, IS STRICKLY PROHIBITED. The lifeguard has the authority to enforce all rules, restrict any behavior deemed to be unsafe or inappropriate, and to ask those not in compliance of policies to leave the pool area. Diving Board Rules Only one person is allowed on the diving board and ladder at a time. Each person must wait until preceding diver has cleared the area before diving. All divers must dive straight off the end of the diving board. Divers must swim directly to the nearest ladder and exit the pool. Page 6

Only one bounce is permitted on the diving board. Cartwheels, handstands, inwards and reverses are prohibited. Goggles and flotation devices may not be worn when using the board. Running, pushing, causing undue disturbance, or other dangerous conduct is prohibited at all times in the diving board area. Rules and policies may change without notice to ensure the safety and comfort of all members. Rule changes will be posted at the gate house. The YMCA reserves the right to suspend or expel any individual who violates the pool rules/policies. Thank you for reading this packet and have a great summer at the YMCA Outdoor Pool!
