The incredible efforts of a select group of volunteers, known as the North Coast Roving Patrol team, have helped the regional Branch to maintain a high standard of lifesaving on local beaches throughout the season.
Mia Jamal of Avoca Beach SLSC and Max McDermott of Warriewood SLSC have been named the 2025 NSW Junior Lifesavers of the Year after three days of team building and leadership development on Sydney’s Northern Beaches.
There may not be a truer definition of ‘beyond the flags’ lifesaving than that of Greg Tuchin’s first aid assistance rendered some 8,000km from his home club of Woonona SLSC and, perhaps more interestingly, more than 30 degrees Celsius below what he’s used to in the peak of summer.
22 of the state’s brightest young lifesavers will come together on the Northern Beaches in April for the Junior Lifesaver of the Year (JLOTY) Program.
Surf Life Saving NSW would like to congratulate a host of surf lifesavers who have been awarded the National Medal, as well as Second Clasps and First Clasps for their sustained service and commitment to Surf Life Saving.
It was a call Sawtell SLSC’s Amy Hannaford was more than happy to take and led to the most incredible day on the water for some volunteer surf lifesavers on the North Coast.
Congratulations to members of SLSNSW who have been awarded various honours in this year’s Australia Day Honours list.
We are saddened to advise of the passing of John Reeves OAM – a valued member of Cooks Hill SLSC and a Hunter Branch and Surf Life Saving NSW Life Member.
NSW members and clubs have once again shone on the national stage, winning several awards at the 2024 Surf Life Saving Australia Awards of Excellence – including a Central Coast Patrol Captain earning the state an incredible third straight DHL Surf Lifesaver of the Year title.
