    Overall, far less than impressed. It's a new-ish facility but already showing its wear and built…read moresmaller than its current capacities dictate which planners should have realized when it was planned. The dive well has only 1m boards and a 3m could have been included, but wasn't. Locker rooms are absolutely tiny. I've been to an aquatics center in Lewisburg, West Virginia which is a town about the size of Lake City or smaller that pool is better than Cecil and is about the same size. For Jax-area, this needs to be much larger. Then there is my personal experience. I called ahead to ask if I could practice water polo here and the lady on the phone said, sure, of course. I show up with my polo ball and another girl is like "no, you can't take that ball in the pool". I explained other staff said I could and this was standard practice for water polo. She said "the other person must not have known what water polo was and that it involved balls". Sorry, you should not work at an aquatic center if you don't know what water polo is, period. Train your staff, Cecil. Also, face masks for underwater swimming which cover the nose are not allowed--these are standard training gear for swimmers. The lifeguard didn't know why and agreed the rule is stupid but said that's the rule. I'm a licensed USA Diving coach. I'm also very versed in high school and collegiate swimming and water polo. I also happen to run a youth sports program at another institution and per all this I can validly say the rules here and lack of staff training/knowledge are pathetic and far below national or World Aquatics or even FHSAA standards. Get it together, people. I gave two instead of one star because the pool itself is alright for lap swimming at the least.

    I live on the westside and was looking somewhere for my nephew to take swim lessons while he stayed…read morewith me this summer. He had some a few years ago but needed a refresher now that he is older. I signed him up for two weeks of lessons. A total of 8 lessons for just over $60. This was a great price! I was able to pick evening lessons which was good for my schedule. By the end of the first week, he has learned the freestyle and back stroke and was very excited to go each day. The facility is nice, the pool is well maintained and my nephew was super excited for the diving boards. They have changing rooms so that he was able to change each evening before leaving. The coaches were great and very patient. I like how they ended up with about 4-5 students per coach which was great. My only issue was that out of the 8 days, three days ended up being postponed due to rain. I am sure they have their reasonings but I didn't quite get it as the pool is indoors but maybe it's because it's in a metal covering? I don't know but that was just a tad frustrating, also we were called about 25 minutes before lessons started when we had already left to get there on time. Either way, I would sign him up again if needed and the facility is better than I anticipated. I do wish there was some more airflow inside as well as it did get very warm while parents sat through lessons and even some jokes were made as the male parents were able to remove shirts for some relief but women could not! It was super warm!
