Diving Officer's Report
Following some questions about my comments
on dive sheets at the AGM I would like to
suggest that it is only compulsory to hand
in dive sheets for club trips.
Officially a ‘club trip’ is one that has
been organised by the club or one in which
club equipment is being used. We
are responsible for people on club trips
and the BSAC 3rd party
insurance covers those. The sheets might
be needed to refer to if there were an
incident, they provide information that
could be needed if e.g. a log book were
stolen, they are the club’s records. It is
important for us to have a record of all
club trips. In the past the instructors
using sites like Capernwray with trainees
have been extremely good at handing in
sheets. We are also pretty good when it
comes to St Abbs, the Clyde, Scapa etc. I
want 100% on all club trips. Over and
above that – whether it’s just friends
going for a quick dip or holiday diving,
it’s up to you. Remember, if you go for a
dip, if you use any club stuff at all,
even just an air fill, it’s a ‘club trip’
and you must do a sheet. You can send me
them electronically if you prefer. Just DO
THEM. (available online from
