Domestic Camps may occur frequently throughout the year (2-5 times approximately), and International Camps and Competitions occur very infrequently (1-2 times approximately). This role includes development and ongoing review of individual care plans relevant to these teams and activities and identifying risks to health and safety as well as other supportive duties within reason for the team while away.
