This pool, has the policy that nobody outside of
a diving club environment should use the boards,
on the basis that a missed dive off either height
must be treated immediately as a major spinal
incident. i.e.if diving clubs want to book them
then fine, but Jo Public has no chance! Incidentally
there is no current diving club that uses this pool,
or none that I am aware of. Maybe if a club is
established there then it might thrive?

The Stevenage Swimming Centre apparently had a
major facelift a few years ago. What have they done
that's so different? I first started swimming here over
30 years ago, but I see no difference to the pool from
then! Surely with a town becoming so densely
populated, the people in charge of the so called
redevelopment could have done a better job! How
about some slides for the youngsters? Why are we
not allowed to use the Diving boards? Need I ask
more?

What's the point in having a diving board if we're
not allowed to use it? All the younsters want to
use it.

It might be worth noting that despite the presence
of a 1 and 3 meter spring board at Stevenage Pool,
there is a policy that they are never to be used.
Apparantly, I was told they were not safe. This is
a terrible shame, as they appear fine, and so the
Pool loses a major attraction to local youngsters
