Physical Readiness is the level of health, strength, stamina, fitness, mental and emotional capacity necessary for a participant to be able to undertake an activity without suffering harm or injury caused by the activity itself. Whether or not a person has the necessary level of Physical Readiness may change according to the personal circumstances of the individual at a particular time.

Cancellation Policy:
From the moment SLSGB begin to organise an event, we start to incur costs. Member’s entry fee is invested into the cost of staging the event, hiring facilities, hiring and buying equipment. In short, organising any event requires a considerable amount of forward planning, risk and expense. Once you pay your entry fee that money is spent and with it SLSGB aims to provide you with a race. In open water competition, adverse weather can create extremes in heat or cold, storms, dangerous surf or swell and associated dangers for competitors. Man-made disasters such as pollution of the water and beach cannot be discounted.
If an event must be postponed or cancelled for safety reason, including inclement weather, concerted effort will be made to notify those who have pre-registered and have provided a contact phone number or e–mail address. If an event is to be rescheduled, all members will be notified of the new event date (if time scales allow). If an Event cannot be rescheduled or run later in the day there will only be a percentage of entry fees refunded after all running cost have be calculated.
