Hampton LSC | Nippers in Melbourne

Hampton Life Saving Club (HLSC) is a dynamic and inclusive sports club located in Melbourne, Australia. With a prime location situated on Beach Road in Hampton, HLSC offers a wide range of activities and programmes for people of all ages and abilities.

For kids, HLSC's Nippers programme is a popular choice. Nippers is designed to introduce children (aged 5-13) to surf lifesaving skills in a fun and safe environment. The programme focuses on developing confidence, fitness, and teamwork through activities such as beach games, ocean awareness, and water skills training. HLSC is especially proud to have been named the 2022-23 Nipper Programme of the Year by Life Saving Victoria.

HLSC also offers the Starfish Nippers programme, specifically tailored for children with disabilities. The programme aims to provide a supportive and inclusive environment where children can participate in beach activities and learn essential water safety skills at their own pace. Starfish Nippers is a fantastic opportunity for children with disabilities to engage in physical activity and build their confidence in the water.

For teenagers, HLSC provides a safe space for socialising and personal development. The club offers junior leadership programmes, where teens can learn important life skills and gain valuable experience in leadership roles. These programmes foster responsibility, resilience, and teamwork, while also providing opportunities for personal growth and achievement.

Adults are not left out at HLSC. They have the option to join patrols and contribute to the safety and well-being of beachgoers. Patrolling members undergo comprehensive training in first aid, rescue techniques, and surf awareness. In addition to patrols, adults can also enjoy recreational activities such as surf skiing or simply relax on the deck with a glass of wine, soaking in the beautiful seaside views.

HLSC takes pride in their strong sense of community and their commitment to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment. Becoming a part of the HLSC family means joining a supportive community of like-minded individuals who share a passion for ocean safety and outdoor activities. The club hosts various social events and fundraisers throughout the year, providing opportunities for members to connect and make lasting friendships.

Whether you're looking to get involved in surf lifesaving, have fun in the sun, or simply enjoy the beach lifestyle, Hampton Life Saving Club offers something for everyone. Connect with HLSC today and experience the joy and fulfilment that comes from being a part of a thriving sports club in the heart of Melbourne's beautiful coastline.
