When should swim coaches conduct facility inspections?

Swim coaches should conduct facility inspections before training sessions and after major events to ensure the safety and readiness of the environment for swimmers. Regular inspections help identify potential hazards, confirm that equipment is functioning properly, and ensure that the pool area is clean and safe for use. Conducting these inspections before training allows any issues to be addressed immediately, reducing the risk of accidents or injuries during practice. Following events helps to assess any wear and tear that may have occurred, ensuring that the facility remains safe for future use. This proactive approach to safety is essential for maintaining a secure training environment for all athletes.
