Idea Fair
Club Safety
How has this idea enhanced your club's operation, etc.?
The innovative approach of using humorous safety videos has significantly enhanced our club's operations, transforming the often tedious task of communicating rules into an engaging and effective method. Acknowledging that rules can be challenging to articulate and communicate, we adopted a fresh strategy by creating entertaining safety videos. Using a safety manikin, we replicated real incidents that commonly occur at our pool and on our course. The primary objective was to inject humor into the educational process while ensuring that the underlying safety messages were effectively conveyed. This creative initiative not only made the communication of rules more enjoyable but also resulted in heightened member engagement and improved understanding.
How was this idea implemented, and what have been the club members' reactions?
The implementation of this idea involved the production of funny safety videos featuring a safety manikin and reenactments of common incidents at our pool and course. The humor injected into the videos aimed to make the delivery of safety messages enjoyable while emphasizing the importance of adhering to rules. Club members have responded positively to this approach, finding the videos entertaining and educational. The innovative use of humor has not only captured the attention of members but has also proven to be an effective tool for better educating them on safety protocols. The success of this approach highlights its impact in enhancing both member engagement and understanding of important rules within our club.
