Using regular cement based grouts made for flooring tiles will not last very long, there are special grouts made to withstand the discoloring effects caused by chemicals used in pool maintenance. Also swimming pool tile grout is made to have a waterproof matrix in the cement that minimizes the staining. There are a few companies who specialize in just cement based products made for Swimming Pools. Also if you are going to make a repair I would suggest one of the pool tile repair kits because they come with a bonding agent to help the grout last longer as well.

A sport wall is a temporary wall or boom that is placed in the swimming pool to shorten the length of the pool to make it regulation length for a swimming competition.
