The SCF Paddling Code of Practice sets out the minimum safety, operational, and environmental standards for all paddling activities on Singapore’s reservoirs and open waters. It applies to all clubs, coaches, organisers, and individuals, and compliance is mandatory for participation.
The Code defines clear roles and responsibilities, enforces safety measures such as risk assessments, supervision, and mandatory use of approved equipment, and outlines rules for both reservoir and open water paddling. It also establishes guidelines for weather conditions, vessel standards, and incident reporting.
Overall, it ensures safe, responsible, and consistent paddling practices while protecting participants, waterways, and the wider community.
