16.01.2022 Update I have added our first training session to the Team app! And I am expecting a big turn out, so I will probably need to break into a few groups... so please bear with me this first week back as I scramble to get things organised. Just remember you may not be starting at the normal 6:30AM for 7:00AM times. Team App is going to be a learning curve for us all, some are new to this app and others not, and it will take time for things to work smoothly. But please, try ...to remember to RSVP at least 12-24 hours before training so I have time to split us all into groups of 20. And please remember that if you do not RSVP, and show up expecting a seat we could break our pre-approved capacity putting everyone's training and health in jeopardy. I want to be as inclusive as possible but under current the circumstances the club's number one priority is the health of all our members. Team App is available here: Apple Users: https://apps.apple.com//team-app-your-team-you/id625607532 Samsung and Android Users: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details Sunset Bay Team: https://www.teamapp.com/clubs/457232 Again, thank you all for your patience and I'll see you on the water Cheers, Kim SBOCC Club President

04.01.2022 2019 season has started. Most Saturdays we are getting 4 canoes on the water. Interested in giving outrigger paddling a go? Send us a message for more info.

03.01.2022 Dear Members, Last week I promised to provide you an update regarding the roadmap for the relaxation of restrictions imposed on our sport. AOCRA has been provi...ded with the following Guidelines from Paddle Australia which distils all the information provided by authorities and gives practical general advice as to how your Club can comply with its responsibilities as sport resumes over the coming months. A staged approach will be taken when it comes to returning to all sporting activities, taking into account factors such as the local presence of COVID-19; and various risk mitigation strategies. Any resumption of paddling activities must be within the context of social distancing and the overarching aim of minimising the risk of the transmissions of COVID-19. Clubs are requested to take a common-sense approach in applying these Guidelines Appendix A; https://paddle.org.au//upl/2020/05/Update-6-Appendix-A.pdf Clubs are requested to follow the governments 3-Step Plan- Appendix B https://paddle.org.au//upl/2020/05/Update-6-Appendix-B.pdf The red line symbolising the position at the date this guidance is provided. In addition to the above advice, all Clubs are asked to keep themselves continually updated regarding their own State Government announcements, guidelines and requirements. If a Club sees that something may be permissible according to a strict reading of the Guidelines yet recognises that undertaking the activity cannot practically happen without breaching the intentions of social distancing of 1.5m, it should not proceed with that activity. Similarly, exceptions to social distancing should also be considered. For example, while paddling in a two-man canoe may not be allowed, social distancing is not required for members of the same family who are already in contact. The Guidelines at Appendix A require Clubs to undertake a Risk Management and Mitigation Process prior to re-commencing Club Operations. AOCRA is working to create a simplified version and Clubs will be required to complete all sections of the Clubs Checklist before recommencing full operations. A gentle reminder also the AOCRA insurance policy does not cover COVID-19. Our priority remains the health of our paddling community and minimising the risk. We will continue to liaise with the relevant authorities to keep you updated on next steps. Keep healthy and stay safe. Yours in paddling, Katherine Cole President, AOCRA
