Default Sports pools

as promised, below is reply from Recreation

We swam at Laurel Manor yesterday at noon - five lanes in, two people doing laps. Maybe the secret to avoiding the crowds is to skip the "lap" swims and do open or combo instead

Thank you for your email regarding the Sports Pools in the community.
One of the reasons the Sports Pools are resident only with an age limit
is residents wanted a pool for residents only to go to swim, water walk
or take classes. The organized classes do tend to fill up and therefore
residents did not want to have the class full with a few guests
attending. We schedule activities at different times throughout the
community to allow for the open swim times in various locations which is
why you may go to a Sports Pool with few residents during that time. If
the age limit or use by guests were to be changed the request would have
to go to the District boards for approval, the Amenity Authority
Committee and the Sumter Landing Community Development District board.
The three types of pools were designed to fit each purpose, a resident
only pool (Sports Pool), a family pool (Guests allowed) and a
neighborhood pool (resident and guest over 30 year of age). If you need
more information please feel free to contact me by email or call me at
750-2488.
