General Pool Rules

We would like your visit to us to be as enjoyable as possible, but for your safety, there are some guidelines that we would like you to follow:

Due to Texas safety regulations,
we do NOT allow children to swim who are not fully "potty-trained"!

1) If you hear a whistle, look at the lifeguards - Lifeguards blow their whistles to get someone's attention.  Please pay attention to see if he/she needs your attention!

2) Always walk on the pool deck at all times - The deck is a textured tile that is always wet and therefore extremely slippery.

3) Always enter feet first - Diving is only permitted from the diving boards.

4) An adult MUST accompany any non-swimming child in the water - This applies even if the person has a flotation device!  Please hold the child in front of you instead of on your shoulders or back.

5) Please stay away from the bulkhead (the bridge that crosses the water) - Sight can be obscured around the area, while going underneath is dangerous.

6) Lap lane lines are for lap swimmers only!

7) Follow the coach's or lifeguard's instructions on the diving boards - The boards can only be used with permission.

8) Diving board rules:
(Note:  There are no diving boards at the 1604 NISD Natatorium)
--> Walk when leading up your dive
--> Only forward dives permitted
--> All flips must be controlled
--> Only one person in the diving area at a time.  The diving area includes the ladder, diving board and water space around the board.

9) The lifeguards will correct anything that is deemed unsafe or inappropriate.

10) HAVE FUN and ENJOY YOUR VISIT!!!
