10 DAYS TO GO

It’s been an eventful week with lots of little bits and pieces finally going in to place.

At the start of any season there are many newcomers across all age groups, and I’m sure we tried and true members can all remember starting and being very unfamiliar with Surf Life Saving practices so if you see anyone looking lost or not sure what to do next reach out and lend a helping hand.  Semaphore Surf Life Saving Club has long been known as a Family Club and we want to ensure that that tradition continues.

 

Nipper Facebook Group

The SSLSC Nippers will have their own Facebook Group this year, which will hopefully launch with the start of the season, making it a one stop shop for all Nipper related information. Keep a look out for more news here.

 

Attire Requirements for ALL Training Sessions

The required mandatory attire for all training sessions are Broad Brimmed Hat, Long Sleeved Rashie /Training Top as well as;

Hi-Vis Top 
Accepted colours are Yellow / Pink / Combination Pink-Yellow purchased from last years State Titles.  Green will not be accepted as per Surf Life Saving SA guidelines.

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Thank you to all of those who either volunteered or made items for the Club’s SAPSASA Cross Country BBQ and Cake stall.  As in previous years it was a huge success with the hungry runners.  Parents and teachers also sneaking a sausage or two and cupcake.  An extra thank you to Brad and Trudy Tunbridge who organised the event.  Our Club is a success because of its members.
