Swimming etiquette Ballysillan

Swimming etiquette

Help us keep your pool clean

  • Shower thoroughly from ‘top to toe’ with soap before entering the pool to remove deodorant, cosmetics and perspiration.
  • Use the toilet facilities before your swim and remember to wash your hands thoroughly with soap.
  • When it comes to babies, go for tight-fitting waterproof baby trunks while swimming rather than nappies.
  • Please dispose of nappies, trunks and sanitary products in the bins provided.
  • You are advised not to swim if you have consumed a meal within the last two hours.
  • Never swim if you have consumed alcohol or are under the influence of drugs.
  • Please do not swim if you are currently suffering from a cold or flu.
  • Please do not swim if you have suffered from food poisoning or diarrhoea within the last 14 days.
