Around 15,000 people are members of SLSNZ. The 73 clubs are grouped for consultation and programme delivery purposes into local regions, and are supported by Surf Life Saving New Zealand staff. These new groupings were an outcome of the membership voting in a new and bold constitution in September 2009. We are the largest water safety education provider in New Zealand. To achieve our mission we have a proactive beach safety strategy made up of a broad public education campaign and surf life saving patrols. To support our lifeguards on the beach we provide training and development opportunities and a national Surf Sports programme. We have a national framework of lifeguard and Surf Sports accreditation. Orewa SLSC is one of 17 Clubs in the Northern Region. Orewa SLSC was formed in 1950 by members of Milford SLSC which had fallen into recess. At this time the Estuary outflow travelled north along the beach and ended about where the club now sits. This made the beach quite dangerous and was the reason that the club is sited where it is. In the late 1950s the Air Force bombed the channel in the Estuary and this changed the river out flow straight out to sea. Clubbies originally stayed in a tent in the camping ground and later built a small shed about where the public toilets are to the south of the Club. The first proper clubhouse was opened in 1960. Funds were raised by the club building and operating a skating rink on the Domain. This was closed in the early 1990s and the remains can still be seen to the left of the Domain entry drive. The original clubhouse structure is still incorporated into the building and is roughly where the Lounge/Restaurant is. An upstairs addition was added in the late 1970s and further additions made in the early 1990s to give the clubhouse its existing area. Women were allowed to join as active members for the first time in 1972/73 and the club added a Junior Surf section in 1974/75. In the early years members mainly came from Auckland. This has changed since the late 1970s when the local population started to grow significantly with most of our members now being local.

    oct ‘o8....issue SURF RESCUE Celebrating 40 years of partnership with BP and 30 years of the IRB 2006 Best Photograph in Print 3rd = placing - Alan Gibson BP SURF NZLGB Surf Lifeguard of the Year RESCUE Debbie Phillips-Morgan AWARDS + DHL ‘In it for Life’ Awards with Photos season begins 08 + 09 special issue a look back at the beginnings of the IRB and BP partnership safer beaches. 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.
