For all junior activities and member training, it is compulsory that aquatic activity participants in SLS water events be clearly identified with a standardised high visibility vest as a means of easy identification. The purpose of using high visibility safety garments is to increase the ability to identify/locate participants above the water by water safety personnel during daylight hours. Please refer to Water Safety Procedures 1.1 Section 2.3.1 and 2.3.3 for more detailed information.
