Lap Lane Etiquette

  • Please acknowledge the swimmer already in the lane before beginning your workout.
  • Please limit your workout to 30 minutes when others are waiting.
  • Please don’t swim through the water fitness classes.
  • When passing a fellow swimmer, please be careful.
  • When sharing the space, please swim on the right of the lane in both directions.
  • Lanes are only for lap swimming unless reserved for other programs.
  • UFC strives to maintain 2-4 lanes for lap swimming during all hours of pool operation. Lanes will be restricted to only three when group fitness classes are occurring or more than 15 open swim participants. Only ONE will be available on Saturday mornings from 9:00am-11:30am and Sundays from 1:00pm-4:30pm. Please refer to the monthly Aquatic Exercise Schedule and Facility Schedule which directly influence the number of lanes available at specific times.
