BCAB is pleased to share that we will be broadening the Stadium Safety and Rescue Training Provider requirements to enable more paddlers to deliver the training and therefore, support safety at stadiums.
The Stadium Safety and Rescue Training is designed for individuals wanting to provide safety cover at an artificial, white water course.
The objective is to provide underpinning knowledge and introduce simple and safe practical skills that can be applied appropriately, improving an individual’s awareness of the risks and safety skills required in an artificial, white water environment. The course is open anyone looking to provide safety cover at an artificial course including parents, volunteers, event safety teams and officials.
The training will cover the following UK artificial, white water centres –
- Lee Valley White Water Centre
- Cardiff White Water Centre
- Pinkston White Water Centre
- Nene White Water Centre
- Nottingham White Water Centre
- Tees White Water Centre
