Dear Members of Lifesaving SA,

Lifesaving South Africa encourages all members to take advantage of this upcoming TAFISA webinar focused on safeguarding in sport.

Safeguarding is not only about having policies and procedures in place. It is about creating a sporting environment where everyone feels safe, respected, heard and protected.

The webinar will explore how sporting organisations can build a strong safeguarding culture and ensure that safeguarding measures are understood and put into practice by everyone involved in sport.

Title: Safe on Paper, Unsafe in Practice: Building a Culture of Safeguarding in Sport for All
Date: 22 September 2026
Time: 12:00 (UTC+2/CEST)
Registration Link: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_TJ1mhXxBQOigPOTxRloqPw

The webinar is open to all members of the lifesaving community, including athletes, coaches, officials, volunteers, club administrators, provincial representatives and anyone involved in the sport.

Participants will also have the opportunity to submit an anonymised “What would you do?” scenario from their own sporting experience, which the panel may address during the live webinar.

We encourage our members to make use of this valuable opportunity to learn, engage and strengthen safeguarding within our lifesaving community.
