This will be a multi-clu b collaboration\, and so signups are being done on a google spreadsheet: h ttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1mNa_fgxMpq39W8kGxgALKf3oQEJekQ3H0sw G6Qq7oTA/edit?usp=sharing\n\nYou still have to sign up on the website to b e covered by insurance Please state in the comment that you have signed u p on the google spreadsheet AND paid to the details in the google spreadsh eet\n\nWhen: Wednesday 13 August 7:15pm (Check spreadsheet for date)\n\nWh en to arrive: Please arrive 30 minutes early for setup\n\nWhere: UNSW Fitn ess and Aquatic Centre https://maps.app.goo.gl/Qzs7x9SEB88vB57u9\n\nPrice: $10 for UNSWOC members and  $15 for everyone else\n\nWhat to bring:\nYou r club may be able to provide you with some/all of these\, please discuss with someone in your club\n\n Boat: please bring the smallest boat you ha ve i.e. a play boat if possible\n\n You must thoroughly wash your boat in side and out before coming to the pool\n\n\n Paddle\n Helmet: knocking y our head is a real risk\, helmets are a must\n Spray deck\n Life jacket/ PFD\n Swimmers\n\n \;\n\nWhat to expect:\n\nThe pool session is a cha nce for paddlers in the community (new and old alike) to learn and practic e rolling from other more experienced paddlers. There won’t be 1 single instructor standing in front teaching everyone. Instead\, it will more so be a matter of approaching a more experienced paddler and asking for some guidance and lessons for learning what you want to learn. As such\, if you have a friend who is experienced\, it is worth asking them to come along (for free) to be able to help teach you. Learning to roll is a fairly 1 on 1 task\, and so an experienced paddler won’t necessarily be able to ded icate their entire 2 hours to just you.We will have 3 lanes to use for lea rning and practicing rolling in the shallow end\, but only so many boats c an actually fit into the shallow end. As such\, please expect that there w ill be times where you aren’t able to be in the shallow end where a help er can stand and guide you. Instead\, you can spend time practicing other techniques such as hip flicks\, T rescues\, or paddle techniques.\n\n  \;\n\nFAQs\n\nQ. I am a skilled paddler and want to help teach\, do I need to pay?\n\nA. No\, it is FREE for helpers/rolling instructors. If you wou ld like to come along and help teach\, you can come for free. Please put y our name at the bottom of the spreadsheet in the relevant section for help ers.\n\nQ. I can no longer attend\, what should I do?\n\nA. You can give y our ticket to a friend and have them pay you back. If you don’t have a f riend who wants to go\, please contact Adam Riesel (via mobile or facebook ) and a refund can be organised IF the space can be filled from the waitli st.\n\nQ. I have an experienced friend who can teach me to roll\, can they come?\n\nA. Yes definitely\, your experienced friends are absolutely allo wed to come FOR FREE to help teach you (and anyone else they want to teach ). Please put their details at the bottom of the signups excel sheet\n\nQ. I don’t have a boat or any gear\, can I borrow from a club?\n\nA.
