New Surf Rescue Quarter Zip Jumper

The club is excited to promote our own club Surf Rescue Patrolling (Quarter Zip) Jumper! These jumpers are to be worn by patrolling members when on patrol or conducting water safety throughout the season.

These jumpers are excellent for those cold, windy, inclement days on the beach. We are hoping to purchase stock into the future however for now, please click on the button below to pre-order your jumper.

Sample Sizes

We were lucky enough to grab a few samples for members to try on before purchasing. These samples have been left in the training room under the TV. Please DO NOT remove these or wear them around as they are purely just samples.

Quarter Zip - Medium

Hoodie - Extra Large

There will be some wriggle room to swap sizes in the future when we stock the product.


Presentation Night ~ Save the Date!!

The club is happy to announce that we have booked Silverwater Resort for the second year in a row for our presentation night on Saturday 20th May 2023!

Presentation Night is a night where we come together to celebrate all our members achievements throughout the 2022/23 season. This is one of the clubs biggest events and we would love to see as many people make it for this special occasion.

Further details and tickets to the event will be emailed and posted in the near future.

Bass District Development Workshop/Board Paddling Session

On Sunday April 23rd, Venus Bay SLSC will be hosting Harriet Brown for a workshop and board paddling session. Harriet is a World Ironwoman Champion, 2 x Nutri-Grain Ironwoman Series Champion, and 3 x Molokai to Oahu Paddleboard Champion & Record Holder. She started her Lifesaving career at Ocean Grove in Victoria before moving to QLD to compete
professionally.

Harriet's workshop will focus on nutrition for female athletes and discuss how female athletes can fuel their bodies for training and to
race at their best. As food is so intricately tied to body image it can sometimes be hard to see the positives food can give us. In this
presentation, Harriet shares her journey with food and focuses on how to develop a positive relationship with food. The workshop will commence at 2pm and run for approximately an hour with questions at the end. Following this she will run a general Q&A session
plus a practical board training session for any club members (male and female) who would like to attend. The day would then conclude approximately around 4:30/5pm.

Date: Sunday, 23rd April 2023
Time: 2pm - 5pm
Location: Venus Bay SLSC

If any member is interested in attending please contact Terry Aslanidis - memberdevelopment@woolamaibeach.asn.au. If there are a few members interested, we will be able to car pool together.
