*The Welsh ASA/IoS encourages all clubs and swim schools to have
appropriately qualified Coaches and /or Teachers covering all
sessions but also recognises that from time to time both clubs and
swim schools may have difficulty in finding volunteers with the
appropriate qualifications (especially in the smaller disciplines)
and therefore providing the sessions are operated within the
standard safety framework and in line with the procedures laid down
by the Pool Operator the insurance policy is valid.
