Cancellation of remaining SLSA Wales Sports Events for 2020
With the health and safety of our lifesaving community being an utmost priority, and in alignment with current government advice on events in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic, we can confirm that the SLSA Wales has taken the decision to cancel all sporting events for the remainder of 2020.
In what has been a continually evolving and challenging time globally, we recognize that this decision due to the above-mentioned unforeseen events may come as a disappointment for many but we always have to act in the interest of safety for our competitors, members and spectators.
SLSA Wales have sent out a COVID-19 response focusing on ensuring sea safety with the reduced paid lifeguard service we may face across our Welsh beaches. This was sent to all club secretaries. With the cancellation of sports, I would encourage all of our members and clubs to look at developing their response to this to ensure the lifesaving community thrives and we maintain our focus as a humanitarian association with the aim of reducing lives lost at sea.
Sports Chair,
SLSA Wales
