Free ]Press photo THE FUNNY FLOAT, supporting several water loyers, has become a popular attraction at the pool at The Brooklîn-Wbitby major atom - selects partîcipated in tbe Goulding Park Tounament March 16 and 17 at Maple Leaf Gardens. Tbey first deleated Hillcrest 10-2, to reacb the championship side of the tournament. They won their second gamne by defeating Willowdale 6-0. In the final game Whitby played a strong defensive gamé beating QueerlswaY 3-2 and Select s play at Garde ns winning the A championship trophy. Ed Wood is»manager and Bob Burgess and Hon Lanegger coaches at p A Tarzan rope and a 'funny' float are part of a trial test>now under- way at Aune Ottenbrite Pool ' in Wbitby. And botb pieces of new equip- ment are making the grade as tbey prove very popular with swimmersj enjoying the pool once more after montbs of renovation work. The rope and huge- floating1 devices are ail part of the "leisure pool" concept, until now only adop- ted at a few pools in Canada. Carolyn Ailan, director of1 aquatics in Whitby, and Barry O'Neill, deputy director are studying swinimer interest in the leisure pool concept, whicb, if fully1 adopted, means a change in thei usual pool structure itself. They will recommend, probably1 sometime next year, what kind ofr pool facility should next be built in Wbitby to meet growth. The choice is between the stan-1 dard rectangular pool and the new E type 0fpool which may not be rec- tangular and which features, at theî sballow end,-zero depth at tbe edgei gradually increasing in depth intoi the pool, not unlike a beach.k O'Neill says it's not oniy good fori young swimmers but also for seniors and bandicapped. The, leisure pool concept. alsof ool features winding siides into tbe water rather tban the standard diving board. However, the new pools can accommodate swim club competitions. Maximum capacity bas been reached at Aune Ottenbrite pool. There are now more than 700 people receiving instruction. Some private instruction classes have even been cut back. The new equipinent is the rope, a large floating device and water basketbail, purchased fromn Swimmer's World for about $2,500. It's been popular with the kids - tbey pile exc *itediy on tbe float when it bits the water and line up for tbe, rope. About 275 kids turued out at the pool lasi Monday, another 220 on Tuesday 'during Marcb break. Usual attendance is 120 a day. "If it works out well, we won't besitate to get more equipinent," says O'Neill. He points out that there is always a question of safety when swim- ming fun is augmented, so that more specialized training will be given to pool supervisors should more equipment be added. Allan and. O'Neill will also con- sider safety wben they report on a future second pool for Whitby. iroquois Park. It's one of the new activities gradually being introduced to community pools in Ontario. Free Press photo of the team sponsored Dy Bridlewood Heating and Air Con- ditioning.
