I coach at a YMCA pool (built in 1956 and is a 20 yard pool) where the air temperature ranges around 92-95 degrees and the water temp is usually around 88 degrees. Also, there is poor ventilation because the ventilation system is not working properly. Lately I have come home after coaching with terrible headaches. I worry about our age-group swimmers too because they are working out in such warm temps. The maintenance dept and Y will not lower the temp and have not taken our complaints as a priority. Is this a dangerous situation or do I need to just grin and bear it. Please advise if anyone can help or tell me who we can alert. Thanks!
How much of the asthma is due to kids who have asthma being steered towards swimming? I seem to recall at least a handful of stories beginning, "X took up swimming when her doctor suggested was too hard on her asthma..."
