Prerequisite Test: To be eligible to participate in the Lifeguarding Review Course, each participant must hold a current American Red Cross Lifeguarding Certification. Proof of current certification must be emailed to Aquatic Operations Coordinator no later than one week prior to the first day of class. Failure to provide proof of current certification by this date will result in forfeiture of class fees. All participants will be confirmed or tested on the following prerequisite items at the beginning of class: 1. Swim 300 yards continuously, using these strokes in the following order: 100 yards front crawl, using rhythmic breathing and a stabilizing, propellant kick. 100 yards breaststroke using a pull, breathe, kick sequence. 100 yards front crawl and/or breaststroke (the last 100 hundred yards may be a combination of front crawl and breast stroke). Note: There is no time requirement for this swim. Each participant must show only that he or she can swim the entire 300 yards using the above strokes without stopping (the participant may use goggles for this part of the test ONLY). 2. Starting in the water, swim 20 yards using front crawl or breaststroke, surface-dive to a depth of 7-10 feet, retrieve a 10-pound object, and return to the starting point with the object and exit the water without using a ladder or steps. This specific test must be completed in its entirety within 1 minute and 40 seconds. Note: When returning to the starting point, each participant must be able to hold the 10-pound object with both hands, placing it on his or her chest, and keeping his or her face above water. Each participant must exit the water using his or her own strength (participants may NOT use goggles during this skill). 3. Tread water, using only the legs, for two minutes.
