Answers For [Forecast Q1-2025] - Swimming Program

Good morning. How can I help you?

Good morning. I’m new in Bradfort town and I want to find out information about the swimming pools here.

The weather’s getting hot, I really want to go swimming.

Maybe I can sign up for swimming lessons to improve my skills.

My swimming skills are a little rusty.

Sure. There are three pools in town.

I’m sure there will be one that suits your needs.

What are they like?

1The first one is called Happy Summer which is mainly for young children.

It was opened this May, so it’s quite new.

Oh, how big is it?

The pool is about 50 meters in length. So it’s big enough.

2There’s a café, too. You can have a cup of soft drink when you finish swimming.

It all sounds quite nice.

I have to tell you there is no parking lot nearby.

So if you drive there, you may spend some time looking for a parking location.

Right. That can be a problem. I don’t want to do on-street parking. It’s kind of expensive. What are the other options?

Blue Ocean is quite good. It opens to swimmers of entry level.

Oh, I guess I might belong at this level. How deep is the pool?

They have areas where the water is quite deep, about 3 meters in depth.

3And they have changing rooms for you, so it’s quite convenient.

You don’t have to change in the bathrooms.

Good. When does it open? I only have time in the evenings.

In the evenings? I’m afraid it opens from 9 am to 5 pm every day.

4That’s too bad. Their timetable doesn’t work with me.

My daily business meetings finish at 5. And it usually takes me half an hour to get there.

How about Water Bay? It opens from 2pm to 9pm. 6And it provides free lockers for your stuff.

Is it open to beginners?

5Yes, actually it’s only accessible for adult learners who enroll in the swimming courses there.

Oh, I might consider that.

I don’t feel comfortable if I have to learn swimming with a group of kids. Are there any drawbacks?

7Usually, a lot of people take part in their training program, so the pool gets a little crowded, especially in summer.

But if you take the training in winter, the situation is much better.

I guess it’s not a big problem, and I really don’t have much of a choice.

So, as I said, you have to sign up for their training course, if you want to go swimming there.

Yeah, I understand. What is the course like? Do I get a personal trainer?

8Yes. Their trainers will train you 3 times a week according to your schedule.

You can pick three days of a week, but you can’t change the scheduled days.

Currently, there are 8 personal trainers, remember to schedule with them at least one week in advance.

I see.

9The training sessions start at half past five on those days. So, arrive early to warm up.

I will keep that in mind. How much is the course?

Hmmm, it’s $1000 for a 2-month program.

With their membership, you can get a discount.

10And if you need a transportation service to pick you up, there’s an extra cost for this.

But, their membership will cover it for you.

I don’t need that. My house is just three blocks away from Water Bay. I can ride a bicycle there.

Alright, if you need further information, you can call Water Bay’s hotline, which is 99087668.

Thanks for letting me know.
