Oh this is bad…. Aren’t public swimming pools for the public?  All the hours avail to working adults appear to be taken up by private groups…

Exactly. It happens even on weekend where the public pools are all packed. I can understand swim instructors need to make a living but there should be some rules and regulations of blocking out the pools, right? I feel better actions can be taken to mitigate pool closure.

Anyone going to YCK or Serangoon to swim today at lunchtime? I'm a 30ish, skinny guy looking for a swimming buddy

Heard from a friend of mine that there's a possibility that Kallang pool may be the next one to be permanently closed. When that would happen is still unknown. If that happens before the new Toa Payoh Sports Hub is opened, then the other pools will even be more crowded. Right now it's insanely packed at Geylang East pool as they close half the competition pool at 7pm for waterpolo training and on some days the entire competition pool can't be used as the other half is also allocated to those people doing water aerobics. It's crazy that they close the other half for just 10 aunties doing water aerobics.

Time for a letter to Straits Times forum. It is indeed getting very ridiculous.
