Sindelfingen outdoor pool: Summer heat drives conflicts to the extreme!

In the past few weeks, outdoor pools have once again been showing their double page: While people are looking for refreshment at almost 40 degrees in the water, the conflicts in many facilities increase. The outdoor pool in Sindelfingen is particularly affected, where reports on violent attacks and clashes among visitors are increasingly circulating. According to Kreiszeitung Böblinger Boten "Clientele that causes problems".

The past few years have shown that riots in outdoor pools are not an isolated case. Again and again violent conflicts occur, which makes the need for solutions even more urgent. The German Society for the Bath (DGFDB) also discussed last year how security in outdoor pools can be improved. For example, a security concept was presented to serve as a guidance for the bathing businesses, reports RP online .

The challenges in the outdoor pool

The challenges in front of which the outdoor pools are facing are diverse. In addition to the violent attacks, many institutions also have to deal with a shortage of skilled workers. Less qualified staff are presenting the operators with major challenges. These problems are particularly urgent in the summer months when the number of visitors rapidly. The heated temperatures and the associated crowds do not make the situation easier. The visitor flow provides additional stressful situations that can end in conflicts.

• limitation of the number of visitors
• Sales of online tickets
• input management to avoid stressful situations
• ban on regular violations or crimes
• training measures for employees

Furthermore, it is recommended to use private security services, especially in urban areas with a social problem. Stuttgart news reported that the police cannot always be and temporary Forays could be a helpful addition.

Together for more security

The managing director of DGFDB, Christian Mankel, emphasizes the joint task of security: "A cooperation between the bathroom operators, the police and other actors is essential," says an interview. Common efforts are necessary to offer the outdoor pools a safe environment that is pleasant for all visitors.

Currently it is to be hoped that those responsible quickly draw the right conclusions and implement suitable measures. This is the only way to become a relaxed pleasure for everyone in the outdoor pool - without cattal conflicts and violent arguments.
