ROOKIES
Our Rookie Program is co-ordinated by Barry Tuddenham and assisted by Julie Nusdorfer. It is targeted primarily at our senior nippers who will turn 13 prior to 31st December - essentially our Under 14 years. Rookies undertake training to obtain their Surf Rescue Certificates and will split their Sundays between regular Nipper activities, Club Champs and Patrol duties. They will mainly be allocated to Patrol 11 (Darren Hutton) or Patrol 8 (Issy Nusdorfer) to ensure they receive consistent training. This program will be completed by Christmas.
CADETS
Our Cadet Program is targeted at the age group following Rookies through to 18 years. This tends to focus on the 14-16 yrs age group once they have completed nippers and until they gain their Bronze Medallion at age 15. There is a Youth Committee for this gruop who focus on events designed particularly for the Cadets - with fundraising activities, competition, communications and patrols/training. These members patrol with either Patrol 11 or Patrol 8 and must complete a minimum of 25 hours throughout the season. Once Bronze Medallion has been awarded, these members will then be assigned to a full time Patrol (40 hours).
DUKE OF EDINBURGH PROGRAM
We are running a Duke of Edinburgh program at Bronze, Silver and Gold Levels throughout the season. We currently have approximately registered members in all Groups. If you wish to apply for this program please contact:
