SWIM SQUAD LANE ETIQUETTE
Lane Discipline
Keep Right - Swim as close to the right lane rope as possible to allow for anyone faster to overtake you. This means you don't swim on the black line, but keep the black line and the lane rope as your boundaries.
​
Overtaking - When overtaking ensure you continue to swim within the right side of the lane (never swim so wide that you swim into an overtaking swimmer from the oncoming lane). If you are the swimmer being overtaken, remain to the right of the lane as much as possible. Hold your line and maintain speed.
​
Turning - As you approach the end of the lane and the wall, move left so you turn as close to the left side of the lane as possible. This prevents pushing off and colliding with the person behind you. Avoid making a pass during a turn.
