Bancoora SLSC Beach Patrol and Water Safety Programs

Bancoora SLSC, a remarkable non-profit volunteer organisation, stands as the driving force behind beach patrol at the beloved Bancoora Beach in Breamlea, Victoria, Australia. Devoted to ensuring the safety and wellbeing of beachgoers, they tirelessly operate throughout the summer months, from the golden days of late November to the glorious moments of late April each year.

As if that wasn't enough, the incredible lifeguards of Bancoora SLSC even hit the sand on weekdays, between late December and Australia Day, to provide their watchful eyes and quick response to any beach-related emergencies.

But Bancoora SLSC isn't just a bunch of dedicated lifesavers. They go even further to support their members, offering a range of programs designed to educate, inform, and empower. Two such programs that make a splash are the nippers and young gun programs.

The nippers program, open to those aged 6 to 18 years, is a fantastic opportunity for youngsters to dive into the world of water safety and learn the essential techniques required to become a skilled lifesaver. Imagine your child gaining confidence in the water, acquiring lifesaving skills, and forging friendships that will last a lifetime—all while having an absolute blast!

But the fun doesn't stop there. Bancoora SLSC's young gun program is tailored for those aged 14 to 17 years, offering the chance for teenagers to take their passion for open water swimming to the next level. Through this program, they can enhance their skills, push their limits, and become the future leaders in beach safety.

So, whether you're a parent seeking a platform for your child's growth and development or a teenager eager to unlock your true potential, joining Bancoora SLSC is an extraordinary opportunity to not only contribute to the safety of Bancoora Beach but also gain invaluable lifesaving skills that will stay with you forever.
