"As with anywhere else used by the public, pools will have to comply with a strict cleaning regime and make sureSo far in the UK, more than 44,000 people have died from the coronavirus and the lifting of restrictions can only be done if they are at the highest standards, which ensure public safety.This includes people arriving swim ready in their kit, and restricted use of changing rooms and shared facilities.Swim England has issued guidelines as to what your swimming experience might be like post lockdown...Making sure the pool is clean - and stays that way - will be one of the top priorities for leisure centres once pools reopen.It comes after one health expert said most pools would need at least three weeks notice before opening to the public.Head of facilities for Swim England, Richard Lamburn said most pools have never been completely closed down before and that this would have an impact on how long it takes for them to get up and running again.He said the water used in pools will have to pass a microbiological test before they can reopen and added that the water will need to be reheated, this has to be done at an increase of 0.25C an hour.This is while chlorine, which is used in pools to keep it clean, also inactivates most viruses.Any equipment used in pools will need to be cleaned in between use, while capacity will have to be limited to allow each swimmer six square metres of space.During swimming lessons, teachers will need to stay outside the pool, and only one parent will be allowed to take a child to a lesson.As with other places such as supermarkets, strict social distancing measures will also have to be adopted at pools.Chief executive of Swim England Jane Nickerson said: “Some pools may request that there are fewer non-swimming individuals dryside to help them comply with these guidelines”.The guidelines state that wide and slower strokes like butterfly should be avoided when lanes are busy, according to the recommendations.Swimmers should also move to the edge of their lane and keep their distance from others while resting.The rules could see a five-lane 25m pool with just three lanes in use to allow for social distancing.Swimmers would be asked to keep moving in a clock-wise direction in the lanes, and lanes could be limited to around five people.While many wild and open swimming areas have remained open, lidos and other wild ponds such as in Hampstead, London, had to be closed due to fears of overcrowding in the warmer weather conditions the UK has been experiencing.Ms Nickerson said facilities would be limited for those attending the pool.The guidelines stated: "Showers may be available at the facility but by arriving wearing your swimwear under your clothing and showering at home pre and post swimming you will help minimise time spent in the changing rooms.
