Swimming lessons exempt from restrictions

At Water Lilies Swimming School we feel extremely blessed that we are able to welcome you all to your swimming lessons and carry on with our sessions. Water Lilies swimming lessons and aquatic fitness sessions are NOT affected by the 'rule of 6'. Thank you all for your support and co-operation with the new systems in place.

Here's a useful update from the CEO of STA following the Prime Minister's announcement on Tuesday 22nd September:
 
"Swim schools you will be relieved to hear that following on from the Prime Minister’s announcement today, we have received a positive update this evening that swimming lessons will not be classified as ‘indoor team sports’ at this present time. Therefore, learners can continue to take part in organised swimming lessons (including baby and pre-school and adult swimming) and aquatic fitness classes at indoor venues that adhere to COVID secure guidelines.

To clarify – swimming lessons and aquatic fitness sessions:
• Continue to fall into the ‘organised sport’ category, so are exempt from the ‘rule of 6’
• Are not classified as ‘team’ sports

Additionally, the Prime Minister did also confirm today that leisure organisations will now have a legal obligation to follow government guidance – and the good news here is that we’ve already done all the hard work for our members by amalgamating all the government guidance relating to swimming pool / lesson management into one easy-to-read living document https://www.sta.co.uk/.../swim-school-re-opening-guidance/
I think we can all breathe a sigh of relief today, and whilst I appreciate some swim schools are still struggling, this really is welcome news for our part of the sector.

Should further information arise, we will keep you updated."
Dave Candler
STA CEO
