It came out in an email from our team coordinator. She sent an email from the league.

6 ft of distance won’t necessarily be a component of pools reopening.
True, but that’s the recommendation. What? You think it’s suggested it be 6’ on 6/9 and it’s safe closer than that on 6/11...despite raising numbers, insufficient testing, no proof there is immunity once you have it, poor tracing, still highly contagious, with no vaccine, etc...?
I don’t accept your premise that 6 ft will be a required social distance at outdoor pools at the point that they reopen. Maybe it will, or maybe by that point we will know more about seasonality and the power of sunlight to kill the virus, and it won’t be considered necessary.

Club swimmers could do this. It would be very hard for everyone else.
I think the guidance is really focused on club teams anyway.
