The Rec Center I occasionally swim at has starting blocks. I am aware that is a swim device that I am supposed to use once in awhile. The pool is very deep and used for daily swim team practice and some meets. Yet, there is always a bright yellow cone placed on the blocks during lap swimming hours. No one may use the starting blocks at this time. I find it irritating. No one could possibly get hurt unless they were especially idiotic. I guess they're worried about lawsuits. I saw someone doing backstroke starts once, but who wants to do those? This practice will discourage me from ever entering a non-OW event.
Ah the pool *** and their arbitrary and capricious rules.
My son took a clear bottle with sports drink in it and the lifeguards said he couldn't have with him during swim team practice. "No drinks allowed. But water is okay".
Huh! Did I miss something?
I told him to use an opaque bottle and tell them it was water.
