Chapter 3.6
Updated 23 Sep 2026 · Rochelle
We are committed to creating a safe and supportive environment for all participants and their families.
Nippers must always stay with their Age Group Manager, unless handed over to a coach or parent/guardian
Parents and guardians must remain on the beach during all Nipper sessions and training — your children remain your responsibility
Kids only enter the water when instructed by their Age Group Manager
Nippers must be signed out by a parent or guardian before leaving at the end of the session
Hi-vis vest and age group cap are compulsory for all water activities
Safety tip
If your child needs to leave early — a bathroom break or heading home — let the Age Manager know, so everyone can be kept safe and accounted for.
Trigg Island SLSC is committed to providing a safe, fair and inclusive environment for everyone involved in the Club. The Club's obligations, the SLSA policies behind them, and how to report a concern are set out in Member Protection.
If you are volunteering with Nippers in any capacity, start with Working With Children — it covers whether you need a WWC Check, the parent exemption, and how to apply.
