Rules for Pools Slides

o Slides should be at the deep end of the pools so that the entry is into water least
eight feet and away from diving areas.
o Go down feet first in a sitting position. (Going down headfirst is dangerous-you
could injure your head, neck, or back.)
Rules for Water Park Slides, Flumes and Wave Pools
o Be sure all areas have a lifeguard.
o Position yourself carefully before you start down.
o Don’t get pressured into a stunt.
o In a wave pool be sure you know how deep the water will be when the wave pool is
turned on.
Rules for the Beach
o Know where the nearest lifeguard stand is.
o Be sure you know the surf conditions before you enter the water.
o Check for warning flags.
o Observe danger signs.
o Swim well away from piers, pilings, and diving platforms.
o Be on the lookout for dangerous marine life.
o If you swim out from shore, remember you must swim back.
o If you are caught in a current, do not try to fight it or swim against it. You can
make it back to shore by swimming gradually away from it.
o Don’t let anyone pressure you into a dangerous stunt.
Basic Skills in Swimming
o Breath Control
o Kicking
o Strokes
o And make sure you are relaxed!
The Basic Strokes
o Butterfly – The swimmer must remain on the breast at all times with synchronized
arm and leg movements.
o Breaststroke – here arms and legs follow a circular motion and must remain
synchronous at all times
o Backstroke – swimmers must remain on their back at all times, except for when
performing a turn.
Swimming is a good all-round activity because it:

o Builds endurance, muscle strength and cardiovascular fitness.
o Helps maintain a healthy weight, healthy heart and lungs.
o Tones muscles and builds strength.
