Junior Activities
The Junior Surf Life Saving Australia program (also known as Nippers) services more than 40,000 young surf lifesavers and their families Australia-wide.
The program is open to all boys and girls aged 5 to 14 and aims to teach children all there is to know about keeping themselves, their families and their friends safe at the beach.
The Junior program is a great active way for children to learn more about the beach while becoming involved with a community based surf-lifesaving club.
The program runs between October and March and provides age-specific activities for children that are both fun and educational.
In particular the program aims to teach children:
- Surf awareness and safety
- Surf sports skills
- Personal development
- First Aid Training
- Team Work
All while having fun!
The West Beach Surf Life Saving Club Junior program works to train tomorrow’s life-savers, encouraging all children to take part in all aspects of the junior life saving program. Saturday Training sessions and Sunday Competitions are both key aspects of the Junior program.
Competitions
Competitions are held on Sundays and run all day. There are six Sunday competitions held over the summer season. West Beach Life Saving Club encourages all children from the Under 9 age group and onwards to be part of their competition team.
West Beach Life Saving Club Community
West Beach is always looking for parents to assist with the running of the club; to help with the children in the water or at competitions; or just to contribute to the social atmosphere of the club. Any feedback or ideas are welcome – just see a committee member or age group manager.
