200m Safety Badge

200m Safety Badge

All junior members who wish to use foam or fibreglass paddleboards and/or swim beyond waist depth must pass their 200m safety test. This is a mandatory safety requirement which demonstrates that junior members are confident in the ocean and capable of returning to shore if they are separated from their equipment.  Junior members must have the badge fixed to their togs or beanie and they must also wear their high visibility safety vest.

For children aged 10 and above, you must have your 200m Safety Badge to be able to compete in competitions.
