**Members can only be authorised for attendance at the ASSA Intra & Inter Service Carnival.
Sports which are not directly approved by the DI(G) may, however, still come under the coverage of the SRCA if they meet the criteria already listed, i.e:
- Approved for that individual member in Routine Orders or equivalent; or
- Clear and identifiable connection with a fitness program where that activity clearly promotes fitness (e.g. orienteering, gym work, jogging or swimming) or improves skills relevant to the member's Commonwealth employment (e.g. rifle shooting).
