**Attire**
We follow IGA dress code, it is designed to safeguard the participants and coaches. The following are the basics points for the dress code and should be adhered to during training and events:
• Participants wear appropriate tightly fit clothing which covers the torso. Such as; unitard, leotard, t-shirt & shorts or leggings.. Loose clothing can be a hazard to participants and coaches.
. • The wearing of clothing of raised adornments or items with buckles or clasps, zips or loops are dangerous and are prohibited.
• If hair is long enough to be tied up, it should. Hair should be kept out of the face.
• Participants should work in bare feet or gymnastics slippers or non-slip socks.
• Fingernails should be no longer than the end of the finger.
• Participants should be aware of the risks associated with wearing spectacles and minimise the risks by wearing flexible frames, an elastic sports band or contact lenses to ensure safety.

**Body Piercing and Adornments**
Jewellery must not be worn. If it can be removed, it should be.
If it is impossible to remove a piece jewellery or adornment then they must be sufficiently covered with protective tape.
Newly pierced stud earrings need to be covered with protective tape but must be removed as soon as possible (normally after six-weeks).
We understand that there are certain items of jewellery that are worn for religious or medical reasons. These items need to be covered by a sweatband taped in place to ensure the jewellery is covered. Certain items may be deemed unsafe by the coach in charge.
