General rules of residence
The purpose of these regulations is to maintain the safest possible environment for all athletes and guests. We wish to avoid any dangers that may arise from allowing free access to visitors to the site. Some degree of inconvenience to athletes and guests is inevitable in order to achieve an acceptable level of security.

Late night access to AIS Halls of Residence
- At all times a security swipe card is required to move from the AIS Halls of Residence reception to your accommodation.
- The front doors to reception are locked from 10 each night through to 7:30 the following morning ( 9 am on Saturdays and Sundays). Residents entering or leaving between these times will need their security swipe cards.
- A security guard is permanently stationed overnight at the AIS Halls of Residence. Any instructions from the security guard should be obeyed. The security guard is often patrolling the AIS site, and residents requiring after hours access may alert the guard by pressing the button located beside the main door.
- Doors to each block are locked at 10:30 each night and can only be opened by a key to a room in that block. Residents should note that they will need their room key to gain access to their block after 10:30 pm . This is to ensure that the blocks are secure, quiet and free of unwanted visitors. The security guard will not access blocks or rooms for residents. We expect athletes to be thoughtful and responsible in carrying their security swipe card and keys for after hours access.
- The gate between the laundry and residences is automatically locked overnight from 10:30 pm to 6 am . Your security swipe card will not allow access to the AIS Halls of Residence through the gate during this time period.

Access to the dining hall

How to use the dining hall
The dining hall has a colour-coded system to highlight the different categories of food available (such as low fat, high carbohydrate).
Camp participants are requested to take small serves of food and return as frequently as desired to limit food wastage. Wasted food is not only costly, but reduces the variety for those eating later.
Athlete supervisors
Athlete supervisors monitor behaviour in the dining hall. Please respond to any requests made by these staff members.
Dress code
All camp participants must be appropriately dressed when in the dining hall. The guidelines are as follows.
- Tops must have sleeves.
- Brief clothing and training gear is not permitted.
- Footwear must be worn at all times.
- Athletes must not come straight from training to the dining hall without showering.
- Athletes/officials are not permitted to wear caps or hats in the dining hall.
Anyone not observing these conditions will be asked to leave the dining hall and return when suitably attired.
Dining hall conduct
The following conduct must be adhered to:
- Residents and visitors must not sit on tables, or place their feet on chairs.
- It is the responsibility of each person to return all his or her plates and utensils to the wash-up area, where they must scrape their leftover food into the bins provided.
- At certain times there may be congestion in the dining hall. In these situations, non-resident guests are requested to give AIS resident athletes priority whenever possible.
Food is ordered to meet anticipated needs. Dining hall guests are permitted to eat as much as they wish within the dining hall, but wastage is strongly discouraged. Please take what you need, remembering that you may return for extra serves.
