And they are certainly NOT deep enough for real water swimming, water polo or any water sport tha actually requires one to know how to swim. Sadly the sports pool get overrun by nonswimmers, walkers, water aerobics, water volleyball, and others who just want to play in the water because it's cool and they can splash. Those of us who would like to REALLY swim are pushed to the fringes or out altogether.
No rules against swimming in deep 5 to 6 foot end. bobblers don’t rule the swimming pools, now maybe they do in hot tub….
