Competencies include both Swimming Proficiency Tests and Surf Education Modules. To understand the required competencies please speak to your Age Group Manager.
RnR State Championships – Semaphore SLSC
RnR State Championships for Juniors and Seniors will be held at Semaphore SLSC on 22nd January 2020 from around 9am to 4pm, with clubs from around the state visiting our club to compete.
There’s lots of things to organise before hand and we will need lots of help on the day to pull off this event. We will be looking for volunteers to assist in several different areas. Breakfast cookers/servers, beach working party for event setup and pack-up and first-aid tent staff, just to name a few areas where help will be required. Please e-mail juniorsec@semaphoreslsc.com.au to indicate if you can help.

The events will be varied with Surf Life Saving events and fun events and will include all, even our littlest Nippers.
Teams will be named after club stalwarts bringing together our history and our future. If available, they will be invited to be there on the day as team captains.
Presentation of the Brian Donnell Perpetual Trophy, and bragging rights until season 2020/21, will be made afterwards upstairs at the club.
