Pool Rules Overview

The Wave Aquatics Pool Rules are designed to ensure a safe, clean, and welcoming environment for all guests. Whether you're attending lap swim, family swim, lessons, or a special event, all participants are expected to follow facility guidelines while on deck and in the water.

Pool Rules

Before you enter the pool area, please review the following important rules:
  • Everyone must take a cleansing shower before entering the pool.

  • If you have a communicable disease that can be transmitted by water, or have been ill with diarrhea or vomiting in the last two weeks, do not use the pool.

  • Bathers with seizure, heart, or circulatory problems are advised to swim with a buddy.

  • Bathers who are not potty-trained must wear swim diapers with tight-fitting protective coverings. Diapers must be changed in the designated diaper changing area or restrooms.

  • Do not use the pool while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

  • No running on deck or horseplay in the pool.

  • No food, drinks, or gum are allowed in or around the pool.

  • No glass or glass containers are allowed on deck.

  • No hanging on lane lines.

  • Diving is only permitted in water 10 feet deep or greater.

  • The use of starting-blocks and pull-up bars is restricted to private training times, under supervision of a coach.

  • The use of cell phones and other photographic devices in the locker room is strictly prohibited.

  • Persons failing to follow the rules are subject to removal from the premises.

Children Supervision

  • Children ages 6 and under must be accompanied in the water by an adult, within arm's reach, at all times. Up to 3 children may be supervised by 1 adult.

  • Children over the age of 4 must change in the appropriate gendered locker room. Restroom and locker room access aligns with gender identity, and reasonable alternatives are available upon request.

Swim Test Requirements

  • All children ages 13 and under must take a swim test before entering deep water.

  • If your swimmer needs extra time or help with understanding and performing the test, you can request a Special Accommodation Swim Test by contacting a Head Guard or Manager via the website contact form or at waveswimschool@waveaquatics.org.

  • Once your swimmer passes the test, a note will be placed on your account to ensure no further swim tests are required.

​​The rules for the swim test go as the following:

Jump in and fully submerge
Swim 25 yards on your stomach
Tread water for 1 minute
Exit the pool without a ladder

Goggles are allowed

Additional Information

  • Closest phone for emergencies is located in the Pool Office.

  • AED and First Aid kit are located in the First Aid Room.

  • No private swim lessons are allowed during public swims unless an agreement has been reached with the Rentals team. For lane rental inquiries, email rentals@waveaquatics.org.
