South Lake Dolphins SupervisionThese supervision requirements are outlined below:
- All South Lake Dolphin athletes 11 years and younger must be accompanied and supervised by a guardian at all times whilst in the ARC facility. This is in addition to the coaching provided by South Lake staff.
- All guardians must be 16 years of age or older
- A guardian is able to supervise a maximum of six athletes 11 years of age and under
- All junior athletes under the care of any guardian must enter through reception at the same time as their guardian
- All guardians must be present throughout the duration of each training session, at the specific pool location that the junior athlete is training in
Checking in at Reception As of Monday 11 July 2022, all junior athletes will be required to check in at reception with their guardian instead of scanning through the turnstiles. This will assist our team to better ensure the safety and wellbeing of all swimmers at the ARC and reduce any confusion that has previously occurred in this area.
SLD Times SLD members 12+ and their guardian can scan through turnstiles during the following training times -
- Weekdays - 5.30am to 8am and 3.30pm to 7.30pm
- Saturday - 7am to 9.30am
- Club night Thursday until 8.30pm
11 years and under- spectator can access the facility each time the SLD child enters (due to the ARC supervision policy).

Outside lesson times the spectator of the child over 12 years would be required to pay relevant entry fees. * Please note if the child is 11 years and under the spectator will need to be present and enter with them.

SLD members and account photoPhoto required.
The SLD membership like other memberships cannot be shared with anyone else. Because of this we require a photo of the child in Links to monitor any potential band breach. Also if the child forgets their FOB we can identify it is their membership by the photo on the account.
SLD children with visit passesIf the child has visit passes the parent does not get in free of charge. it is only SLD members
