REMINDERS

LOCKER ROOM REMINDERS

As we continue the 2024-2025 AGUA season, we want to take the opportunity to remind our athletes of locker room policies and best practices:

  • Locker rooms are shared spaces at both BPC & UES. All AGUA swimmers should speak and behave in alignment with our team values of respect, accountability and discipline.
  • There are absolutely no photos or videos permitted to be taken inside the locker rooms, both on campus and during travel meets. 
  • Swimmers should lock their belongings in a locker during practice. 

REQUIRED ID CARDS

All swimmers must use their ID cards to access our facilities. Swimmers are not permitted to enter the facilities without their ID cards.
