They’re pushing back against plans to add poolside changing cubicles, warning it could ruin the venue for competitive swimming and water polo, and raise safeguarding risks for junior swimmers. The club fears the cubicles would crowd out space for officials and coaches, and even let unsupervised adults access the pool during training. While Edinburgh Leisure promises safeguarding is top priority and is actively seeking public feedback, the club’s concerns over the pool’s moveable floor—critical for water polo—are also mounting. The final design could reshape the future of competitive swimming at this iconic venue. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
