Sub-aqua
Who we are :
Andy Procter, BSAC National Instructor
and GSL at 1st Dinting (Glossop), plus an increasing number of snorkelling
and Suba instructors who are able to run sub-aqua activities for Scouts.
What can we do:
- Land-based Snorkelling Activities shuch as Underwater
Kim's game
- Pool-bases activities. Either by putting Groups in
touch with local diving clubs who are willing to provide this on their
club night with or without extra intructor support from us, or if
a suitable pool is available running the activity ourselves as part
of a Group activity such as a camp.
- Try snorkelling - recommend a lower age limit
of 8.
- Try SCUBA - recomend a lower age limit
of 12, medical disclaimer is required.
- Put Groups in touch with local clubs who would be wilcoming towards
Explorer Scouts doing sub-aqua activity towards DofE.
- Facilitate Leaders, Network and Explorer Scouts accessing Snorkel
Instructor Training.
- Eventually, run diving expeditions for qualified divers in scouting
