Diving is the leading sports-related
cause of spinal cord injuries. Most in-ground backyard
and hotel pools are unsafe for diving. A “deep end” that is
too shallow or short to prevent people from striking their heads on
the bottom of the pool is unsuitable for diving. The
Lifesaving Society’s Standard for a minimum safe water depth for
diving entries off the side of a pool is 2.5 meters (over 8 feet).By: Troy Lehman
