Youth Involvement

The Youth Involvement program is run for any interested 13-18 year old members and is designed to assist with the retention of this age group.

Participants complete levels in:

Lifesaving
Development
Competition
Administration
Junior Activities / Nippers
Youth Activities
Club Activities

This program encourages participants to sign up for activities they want to be involved in and earn points for their work.

There are three levels of recognition:

Bronze
Silver
Gold

and a club clothing award is presented at the completion of each level.

For example:

for the Bronze award, 10 compulsory hours of patrol are required plus other club activities such as Nippers and Club activities.

Each participant in the program is given a mentor from the club who is responsible for overseeing the activities and signing off any hours or tasks completed.
