Just curious. I know there are good reasons for having a water fountain at the gym, but I've heard some good arguments for not having one as well.

I've heard people say they're unsanitary (not sure I agree...). There's also the issue of a whole team of kids lining up at the fountain and taking up valuable practice time when they could easily have brought a water bottle instead.What arguments have you heard why it's not good to have one?
I wish our gym did so I don't have to hear kids begging for a dollar because they forgot their water bottle.
Same here. :) The water is really clean and tastes just fine. There is a vending machine so if someone forgets their water bottle they can buy one there.Well we practice in a big multi sports facility, so if you need water you can just run to your dressing room and refill/drink from the tap. Swedish water is so clean and well purified if you had to you could drink from the toilet lol.

Respect to New England.. thought bubbler was just a Wisconsin thing :)current gym has a water fountain (or bubbler, in New England terms) and also has vending machines that sell drinks and snacks.
It's public, whether it is sneezing, coughing, using the restroom, touching mats, vomiting (sorry), etc. there are multiple people touching the water fountain button and my guess is they aren't cleaned all that often. I like the fact they're provided but, I usually buy my kids water if they forget theirs.
Someone needs to swab a water fountain, toilet and a spring floor and report the findings. I bet those spring floors are growing some pretty good nastiness, too. Gyms aren't for germophobes.
