For the first time since the separation of the Awards of Excellence from the Australian Championships, we celebrate our extraordinary lifesavers on the Gold Coast of Queensland. Tonight is about recognising your achievements and acknowledging you, our members, for your contribution and commitment to our communities. Your efforts reflect Surf Life Saving’s position as a vital rescue and emergency service and how your actions position the movement as a respected, highly valued and beloved organisation to the wider community. Tonight we pay tribute and celebrate the extraordinary efforts of members who in 2018-19 demonstrated outstanding acts in the surf, on the beach, in their clubs and in the community. To the finalists, congratulations – what an incredible achievement. To the winners tonight, I sincerely congratulate you. As we recognise the achievements of our 111th patrol season, I have great confidence in the future of our extraordinary movement. A movement filled with people who are inspirational, brave and passionate members of our community. Enjoy the evening. Graham Ford AM President Surf Life Saving Australia SLSA National Awards of Excellence – Program 2019 5 Minister’s Welcome The Hon Kate Jones MP Welcome to Surf Life Saving Australia’s National Awards of Excellence. Queensland is the home of surf lifesaving in Australia, with surf clubs and lifeguards part of the fabric that makes us who we are. So hosting the awards here on the Gold Coast couldn’t be more fitting. It is a great opportunity to recognise the achievements of volunteers who patrol our beaches and keep us safe. During your stay, I encourage you to make the most of the Gold Coast’s unique tourism experiences from our stunning coastline, to theme parks, relaxed outdoor dining and lifestyle, and lush hinterland. The Hon Kate Jones MP Minister for Tourism Industry Development THE PERFECT NEXT SURFING ADVENTURE FIND YOUR PERFECT NEXT AT QUEENSLAND.COM COOLANGATTA , GOLD COAST SLSA National Awards of Excellence – Program 2019 7 Master of Ceremonies David Lutteral David “Luttsy” Lutteral is the co-host of Brisbane’s Number one rating Nova breakfast radio show along with Ash, Kip, and Susie O’Neill. He is also regarded one of the country’s finest on- field MCs presenting at Commonwealth and Olympic Games, Wallaby and Cricket tests series, Swimming World Championships and more. After extended stints on The ABC’s “The Fat” and the NRL Footy Show, he is currently seen regularly on Fox Sports “The Back Page.” 8 SLSA National Awards of Excellence – Program 2019 Meritorious Rescues Geraldton SLSC, WA On the 15 of September 2018, Linda Stott was stand-up paddle boarding when she observed a man on a sit-down kayak, fully clothed, shoes on, and no personal flotation device (PFD), heading into the channel. The man became disorientated when a wave washed him off his kayak. Struggling to get back on his kayak, and being dragged by the current towards breaking waves, Linda paddled over to calm and reassure him. The pair got caught in several sets of waves and were being pulled out to sea. David Quimby, a club member surfing at the time, recognised the dangerous situation and paddled over to Linda and the patient. David assisted the patient onto his surfboard, before mounting the kayak and retrieving the paddle. Linda remained close by giving warnings as large waves threatened. The patient then started paddling but was quickly dumped again. David returned to help the patient, again placing the patient on his surfboard. Remaining with the patient, he navigated both the patient and the patient’s kayak to shore, receiving assistance and continual reassurance from Linda. The combined efforts of Linda and David most certainly prevented a fatal outcome. Sunshine Coast Emergency Response Group, QLD At 5.45am on the 15 of November 2018, the Caloundra Coast Guard advised Duty Officer Graham Sharry of a male in a sinking kayak one kilometer east of Moffat Headland. The kayaker had been attacked by a 4.5 meter tiger shark and knocked 1.5 meters from his kayak. He swam back to his board to find the shark still gripping onto it before disappearing below the surface. The kayaker turned the board over calling for help via Coastguard. An air pocket prevented the kayak sinking and the shark did not attack again. Graham Sharry contacted supporting members who launched Surf Life Saving Queensland (SLSQ) Waverunner 12 to search the area in difficult morning sunrise light, whilst Nathan Steer (Emergency Response Group, Metropolitan Caloundra), backed him up on a second RWC. Second ski operator Jacob Thomson, and coordinator Dave McLean and comms Andrew McNeily made up the ESM group. Graham Sharry located the relieved kayaker and the patient was returned to shore, thanking Graham and the Surf Life Saving team for saving his life. Grange SLSC, SA On Saturday the 1st of December 2018, Kate Poole and Hannah Darling were completing IRB training in choppy conditions and during a break, were providing water safety cover for over 70 Club members who were completing their proficiency swims. While carrying out water safety, they heard cries from the public on the Grange jetty that alerted them to someone in the water under the jetty. The surf lifesavers’ next actions almost certainly prevented a fatality as they maneuvered the IRB expertly and safely to the jetty, called to get the attention of the patient, who momentarily raised her head before again submerging in the water. The pair used teamwork to calmly and effectively point out dangers, support each other verbally and physically in managing the patient’s distress and resistance to being saved. The surf lifesavers reassured an almost inconsolable patient, pulled her into the IRB and transported her back to the beach. Once on shore they sought immediate help and stayed with the patient until the ambulance arrived. The surf lifesavers’ actions, in a very challenging situation, are to be commended. SLSA National Awards of Excellence – Program 2019 9 Lorne SLSC, Surf Coast Lifeguards, VIC On the 14 of December 2018, three teenage males went swimming beside the rocks in front of Lorne SLSC. Lifeguards identified that the easterly swells, strong rips and rocks would prevent the swimmers returning safely to shore so they recruited volunteers to assist. Lifesaver Sam Ord paddled out on a rescue board and the Inflatable Rescue Boat (IRB) was launched by Ellen Porter (driver), Jess Sincock (crew) and other volunteers. The conditions prevented the IRB picking up anyone on the first approach, however, a rescue tube was thrown and swimmers were able to hold onto the tube and rescue board. The IRB was navigated out further through the swell and attempted a second approach during a break in the surf. This time the three swimmers were brought into the IRB, however a large wave caught the rescue board whilst the last patient was holding it and it washed into shore. The IRB took a third approach to pick up Sam and return everyone to the beach. This rescue demonstrated excellent collaboration between the lifeguards and volunteers in extremely difficult circumstances. Soldiers Beach SLSC, NSW On the 28 of October 2018, Patrol 4 surf lifesavers were preparing to finish their shift when three surfers entered the water from the rock shelf at the northern end of Soldiers Beach. The beach had been closed all day due to dangerous surf conditions. Patrol Vice Captain Matt Neale observed that the youngest group member was struggling after losing his board. Advising the patrol, Matt entered the water with a rescue board, negotiated large and powerful surf, reached the 16-year old male and headed for the shore. After maneuvering through a turbulent back wash, and almost to the shore the pair were caught by a large set of waves which dislodged them from the board. In the meantime, the remaining surfers were helped from the water by the patrol. With the assistance of Ian McGaw, Matt swam the patient away from the rock shelf and 400m across the beach expertly using the large rip current at the northern end of the beach. Finally, Matt caught a break in the surf to swim them both to the beach. Matt and patrol members spoke to the uninjured but shaken patients to assess and observe their condition. Bronte SLSC, NSW At 8:00pm on Tuesday the 29 of January 2019, 10 bathers of various ages and nationalities entered the water at Bronte Beach and were quickly swept out behind the reef by a rip current. The group, all poor swimmers, attempted to support each other, but panicked and found themselves in further difficulties. A Waverley Park Ranger notified Bronte SLSC members at the surf club. Club Captain James McLennan as well as Waverley Lifeguards Anthony Carrol and Julianna King, paddled out on rescue boards while others took additional rescue equipment to assist on the shoreline.

For over 40 years we’ve been helping to keep beaches safe. So thanks to our people in yellow and red.....and green. It is an honour to write the foreword for this special edition to mark the 40 years of the BP Surf Life Saving partnership. This magazine is a very special record of that partnership as well as the development of power craft in New Zealand. BP’s partnership with Surf Life Saving started in 1968. Europa had provided the Worser Bay Club with a new surf boat early in the year which was used to save passengers of the Wahine in Wellington Harbour. That event made my predecessors realise what role the company could play in helping to save lives. Today, 40 years later, BP supports the 208 IRBs (inflatable rescue boats) used by Surf Life Saving Clubs around the country to keep our beaches safe. The partnership is mutually beneficial and is about much more than just money. It’s about people. The thousands of volunteers that give their time to keep our beaches safe, they are the people that saved 1681 lives last summer, our financial support just helped to give them a tool to assist them in their work.

  • Surf Life Saving New Zealand – Sport Policy Statement SPS010
    Surf Life Saving New Zealand – Sport Policy Statement SPS010 Subject: IRB Racing Personal Protective Equipment Endorsement Date: March 2016 Endorsed By: SLSNZ Review Date: June 2016 1. Introduction Surf Life Saving IRB Racing is currently one of the few motor sport events in New Zealand that does not wear helmets, and the only water motor sport/extreme sport not to wear lifejackets in New Zealand. As a leading water safety organisation, we should be leading the way in reducing risks where appropriate for our members, as well as setting a good image and example to our communities on the beach. The introduction of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is one area we look to reduce risk along with the following key safety measures: Eliminate, Substitution, Isolation, Engineering, Administrative. There is increased pressure from organisations like Water Safety NZ, Coastguard and Harbour Masters regarding the wearing of Lifejackets for all boat users, power or unpowered. IRB racing has the highest injury rate to our members, and we are required to make practical steps to reduce risk and increase protection where possible. 2. Objectives of this Policy The objective of this policy is to provide best safety standards for members competing in IRB Racing and outline the requirements for personal protective equipment required. 3. Rules The following rules have been developed by the National IRB Advisory Group and National Sport Committee. With the one exception below, lifejackets are compulsory for all IRB Drivers, Crew and Patients in competition and competition training from the 1st January 2016. Prior to the 1st January 2016, the wearing of lifejackets is highly recommended.
