TRAINING 

Would you like to get more involved and give back to your Club? Our Club does not exist if we do not patrol - so our volunteers who assist with the beach are the backbone of our Club. You do not need to be a sporting hero.  We have 3 courses starting in November: 

• • Observer - no swimming required: This is the starting Award and gives you a taste of Surf Life Saving, once you have obtained this you can complete Radio Operator, First Aid and Advance Resus. Members with Observers can join our Patrol Groups.
  • Surf Rescue Certificate - this will allow you to assist with Water Safety and Patrol. Entry requirement: 200m pool swim in under 5 mins.
  • Bronze Medallion - this award will allow you to assist with water Safety and Patrol. Once you have your bronze there are many pathways that open up - from competing to getting competencies to allow you in the IRB. Entry requirement: 400m pool swim in under 9 mins.
    
    How does it work? 
  • • You need to be a financial member of Eimeo (or if you are already a member you need to have a Members Portal Account) 
    • Your Bluecard has been processed and linked to your profile  
    • Complete online requirements of CYRMS (Child protection elearning - this is quick) Register for the Course (you will need a USI)  
    • Complete your swim  
    • Complete the course: undertake the eLearning for the course at a time that suits you & the practical will be at Eimeo
