At the schools we visited (indoor pools), the coaches have their offices right next to the pool, and they can see who comes in. Dry land training is still allowed out of season and that is expected.

One team also has a club team using their pool year round and some swimmers join the club team for practices. At the other, pool times are set by the coach and that school set aside lanes and times for the swim team even outside of official practice times for their use.

Trust me, they’re watching. We all know that this is not a sport you can drop for 5 months and pick back up in September. The expectation is still there for mostly year round swimming, at least at the schools we visited.
