Beloit Memorial High School
Beloit, WI
The Beloit Memorial High School pool, built in 1968, had reached its physical obsolescence. Because the pool failed to meet current industry standards and could no longer host meets within the WIAA Big Eight Conference, the student athletes’ competitiveness was impaired.
The grand opening in August 2013 celebrated the new natatorium designed to meet the growing demand for life safety swim instruction and swim programs for both high school and middle school students in Beloit. The new pool and seating capacity within the natatorium will also allow the district to host large swim meets and thus bring in revenue for both the district and the city.
Aquatic amenities include:
4,700 sq. ft. Competition Pool
- Eight 25-yard lap lanes
- Starting blocks with side rails and wedge
- Two 1- meter springboards
- Zero entry ramp ADA access
- Water basketball and volleyball for physical education classes and recreation
- Timing system with video matrix display
- Fully automated pool cover system
- Retractable bleacher system and mezzanine seating to accommodate up to 800 spectators
