The Fox 40® Electronic Whistle delivers a loud, consistent signal with a single button press — no breath required. Trusted by swim coaches, water polo referees, and sports officials worldwide. Hygienic, simple to operate, and ready to use straight out of the box.
No Mouth Contact. No Hesitation. Just Signal. Traditional whistles require breath control and mouth contact — not ideal when you're managing a busy pool deck, a water polo match, or a full squad training session. The Fox 40® Electronic Whistle removes all of that. One press of a button delivers a loud, clear, consistent tone every single time.
3 Tone Functions for Different Situations The 4-position switch gives you Off, Tone 1, Tone 2, and Tone 3 — letting coaches and referees use distinct signals for different commands. Start a race, call a foul, or signal a drill change — all without ambiguity.
Built for the Pool Deck Whether you're a swim coach running distance sets, a water polo referee managing physical gameplay, or a lifeguard needing an instant alert signal, the Fox 40® Electronic Whistle is built for humid, high-demand environments. The sound can be aimed directionally — point it where you need it heard.

FAQ

Q: How many tones does it have? A: The whistle has a 4-position switch: Off, Tone 1, Tone 2, and Tone 3 — giving you three distinct sounds for different signals.
Q: Is this suitable for water polo referees? A: Yes. The push-button design is ideal for water polo officiating — clean, instant, and hands-free compared to a mouth whistle. It's used by coaches and referees across swimming, water polo, and other aquatic sports.
