SLSWA and the Life­sav­ing Advi­sory Com­mit­tee are per­form­ing a sur­vey on our front line life­savers to bet­ter under­stand patrols and what is pre­vent­ing mem­bers from up skilling.

We have pro­duced a short 10 ques­tion sur­vey (should take less then 5 min­utes to com­plete) that we would like as many vol­un­teers to answer as pos­si­ble.  A review of the results will be dis­cussed at the upcom­ing life­sav­ing advi­sory forum on May 19th.

The Spe­cial Gen­eral Meet­ing was held on Fri­day 23 March as pre­vi­ously advised. The Spe­cial Res­o­lu­tion of chang­ing the con­sti­tu­tion was car­ried by more than three fourths (3/4ths) major­ity vote by mem­bers in atten­dance (ref. 23.2 con­sti­tu­tion). Fur­ther infor­ma­tion of the progress of this result will be available soon.

Thank you to all who attended.

Mul­laloo Surf Life Sav­ing Club has claimed the title of Junior State Cham­pi­ons at the recently con­tested Junior State Surf Life Sav­ing Cham­pi­onships hosted by Fre­man­tle SLSC on 10 & 11 March.

Stel­lar per­for­mances over the two hot days saw Mul­laloo dethron­ing peren­nial cham­pi­ons, Trigg Island SLSC after fif­teen years of unbro­ken dom­i­nance. The tightly fought com­pe­ti­tion saw Mullaloo’s juniors com­pile a high­light reel of suc­cesses car­ry­ing the club over the line by just nine­teen points. This result pro­vided Mul­laloo with the first Surf Life­sav­ing WA club cham­pi­onship since 1995 and the club’s sec­ond overall.

Mul­laloo SLSC’s direc­tor of junior activ­i­ties, Bret Mad­den, was thrilled with the com­bi­na­tion of raw skill and fair play exhib­ited by the whole team. “We per­formed excep­tion­ally well, both on and off the com­pe­ti­tion arena, with a num­ber of notable dis­plays of sports­man­ship that draw the atten­tion of both offi­cials and com­pet­ing clubs”, noted Mr Mad­den. “It is a tes­ta­ment to the age group man­agers and their assis­tants, coaches, offi­cials and our army of vol­un­teers that bal­ance com­pet­i­tive­ness with fair­ness that makes Mul­laloo SLSC one of the clubs to watch”.

Stand­out per­for­mances were seen from all of the 116 Mul­laloo junior com­peti­tors attend­ing the car­ni­val, includ­ing the newly crowned State champions:

• Under 14 Male Board Res­cue — Jake Smith and Wes Gould

• Under 13 Male Surf Race — Kieran Pollard
