Competition is a great way to get to know families, become involved with the club and Surf Life Saving. Our competitors are usually those committed to patrols and make lifelong friends.\n \nIntroducing our 2021/2022 Nipper Comp Crew\nTrudy Rebbeck and Paul Sholl – Water Safety Co-ordinators\nLeishea Grant – Junior Nipper U9, 10, 11s Competitor Co-ordinator\nGus Seebeck – Senior Nipper U12, 13, 14s Competitor Co-ordinator\nMilton Da Rocha – Beach Competition Liaison\nShona Rose – Nipper Admin\n \nOfficials Training – Important Info for 2021/2022 Competitors\nThis year all competitors parents will need either Bronze or Officials qualifications. Competition policy below.\nOfficials Training Night Wednesday 27th October.\nLast season we introduced the concept that competitors parents would need to help either as an Official, Water Safety or Lead Age Manager at competition as per SLSA guidelines and unsurprisingly each of these require training and certification. Hence if you don’t hold a current Bronze certification, we would be grateful if you could complete your Officials qualification. The club is hosting a night this Wednesday 27th October from 6.30pm to help you complete through this. Lead Age Managers and current Bronze Holders exempt. You can also do this independently online but it is more fun and easier if done together.\nTo prepare –\nGo to sls.com.au – loginClick Members\nNavigate to E-learning/Training Library\nSelect the course – SLS Officiating – view courses\nFind the SLS – Technical Officials Course – $60 – then you will be ready on the night.\nDon’t forget your laptop.\n \nWhy do I need to do this?\nThis policy is actually at many clubs whilst it is new to us at Queensie. We have relied upon our Masters members who have done this for years and it is now time for them to step away. Our Nippers cannot compete unless we have a quota of water safety and officials proportionate to our number of competitors. This requirement is also necessary to be allocated a board.\n \nAre there any benefits for me?\nOfficiating is one way to understand competition and see your Nipper compete. You meet people involved in the club and SLS. It is a way to give back to the club and help your Nipper understand how competition works. \nIf you could please RSVP on Queensie Team App for the course. The club will provide some refreshments.\n \nWATER TRAINING AND WATER SAFETY\nAt Queensie we provide board training with some surf swim training in addition to Sunday Nippers. A great way to become water competent with sessions run by our expert and renowned water coaches.\nTim “Happy Days” Hayes – Head Coach and Masters Competitor, Ex Branch Water Coach with years of experience and tips.\nNathan Krieger – Nathan has been a Surf Club competitor for years, starting as a cadet at Freshwater and progressing to competitive Ocean Swimming and Surfing. Nathan brings experience from coaching Martial Arts, Skiing and now applies his love to Ocean sports.\nCatriona Ormond – Swim and Nipper Coach. Catriona is an accredited swim coach and will be assisting our team with beginner and intermediate nippers.\nJohn O-Toole – John is part of the Team Q family.
