The pool availability is a little different from our other facilities,” Brock said. “For example, on Mondays, it’s hard to get into the pool because it’s a city facility.

Brock said the ideal candidate to have multiple years of personal swim experience — such as in high school or college. Additionally, the individual would need to have completed certain National Federation of State High School Associations requirements, though he emphasized that can be taken care of once the right person is selected for the role.
