Army Sports Fitness Aquatics

We care about our patrons. Safety is our top priority at MWR aquatics facilities.

All pools have health and safety rules that we ask everyone to understand and follow. The lifeguards are responsible for enforcing these rules in order to PREVENT accidents from occurring. We realize that during low attendance, some of the rules may not seem appropriate. However, in order to maintain consistency between the staff and pool users at our pools, the lifeguards are instructed to enforce the rules at all times.

  • Always follow lifeguard directions.
  • Shower before entering the pool.
  • No running, dunking, pushing, or horseplay.
  • Only Coast Guard–approved life jackets are allowed. Inflatable toys may be restricted.
  • Non-swimmers and small children must stay within arm’s reach of an adult.
  • Swim diapers are required for children not yet potty-trained.
  • Proper swimwear must be worn.
  • No glass containers, alcohol, tobacco, or vaping.
  • Photos and videos should not be taken without consent.
