SKABC carries Commercial General Liability insurance to a max of $5M.  This is often needed to rent facilities such as picnic shelters, public pools etc. We  advise our insurers of most planned events and some events like the recent Big Brothers/Big Sisters paddle could not be covered by our policy, but separate insurance was bought for it.

Depending on how the risk is perceived by our insurers, (which might in turn depend on life-guarding arrangements etc) it might be feasible to make frequent use of a community pool for our practice sessions.  It is definitely worth looking into.
