BULK Request
If you are submitting a large list of activities at once (for example, your Club’s Dive Season for the year), please enter all of the details as requested in the individual activity form but in an Excel document, with a separate line for each activity.
Use the Bulk Sanction Request Form provided below.
OUC Member Clubs must adhere to the event / activity sanctioning procedures. Please review the Three Levels of Protection from OUC and the OUC Liability Insurance Policy.
All bulk sanction requests must adhere to the same requirements as the single sanction request. If an activity/event on your Bulk Sanction Request changes in future, please resubmit.
- Member Club’s Executive must approve all activities before they occur, including dives, training sessions and club meetings.
- Only the duly-authorized Executive may submit an OUC sanction request.
- Activities cannot be sanctioned retroactively (i.e., after the event).
- Member Clubs must submit sanction requests online at least 5 business days prior to the scheduled activities. The OUC will respond with a sanctioning decision (e.g. sanctioning approval or sanctioning denial) in a timely manner. Under exceptional circumstances, Member Clubs may apply for sanctioning in less than 5 business days. Please note that BULK sanction requests may take longer than a single sanction request.
- All members, parents of minor participants, non-diving volunteer workers and non-diving participants at OUC club activities must complete the OUC Online Liability Release and/or the Indemnity Agreement for Parents of Minor Children at least 24 hours prior to the scheduled activities.
- The OUC Online Liability Release requirement is exempted for non-member participants to non-diving events that are open to the public.
- A Member Club’s Executive is responsible for ensuring the completeness and correctness of Releases and Indemnity Agreements.
