What is the age limit for Participants?
Currently the minimum age limit for participants in Adult Fitness Squad is 16 years of age. There is no maximum age limit for participants however we do encourage all participants to assess whether this class is right for them and their needs prior to enrolling.
Will the Program run at other times during the week?
Enfield Aquatic Centre is always aiming to extend our timetables across all programs. As this program is only being introduced for the first time in term 2 we are currently only trailing the above schedule. If you would like to participate in the program but cannot attend the current times please place a Waitlist request with our customer service department to acknowledge your interest. These requests are used by the programs team to track interest in the program and to extend it on desired days and times.
Is the Program run Indoors or Outdoors?
At Enfield Aquatic our Squads Programs run in the Outdoor 50 meter pool if the weather permits during the summer season. In winter, Squads are moved to the Indoor 25 meter pool that is heated to between 29-30 degrees.
Can I book for the full year in advance?
Unfortunately like the School terms these programs are bookable only for the 10-11 week program. Participants are required to rebook themselves each term during enrolment periods.
Can my child also attend the lessons with me?
If your child is 16 years and older and meets the swimming requirements set out in the criteria they are more then welcome to attend the class with you. The class is not catered towards children under this age and therefore are not permitted to join.
Can I leave my child unsupervised while I am in my class?
Children in the Centre must always have a responsible Parent or Guardian who is actively supervising them, regardless of whether the student is in a class of their own or recreation spaces. This means that if you book for an Adult Fitness Squads Program and you are the only supervising Adult you cannot have children swimming in lessons or anywhere else at the same time. Please be aware that all children in the facility require constant supervision as outlined in the national Royal Life Saving Keep Watch Policy. In some cases you may be asked to vacate your class if children are unsupervised during your lesson.
