Outdoor Training

Outdoor Training – Be Prepared for All Weather!

Melbourne's weather can be unpredictable, so please ensure swimmers come prepared for all conditions when training at Croydon Memorial Pool!

What to pack:

• Extra towels to keep warm and dry.
• Warm clothing to wear before and after training, such as a deck coat.
• Dry clothes to change into after swimming.
• Appropriate clothing for cooler, wet or windy conditions.

A reminder about outdoor pool operations:

• The pool remains open in all weather conditions, including rain and cold weather.
• Training will only be interrupted if there is thunder and lightning, or if lifeguards cannot clearly see the bottom of the pool.

Parents - Young swimmers feel the cold quicker - remind them to towel off quickly after training, and take a quick warm shower if needed. 

Thank you for helping our swimmers stay warm, comfortable and ready to train, whatever the weather!
