Long Reef Boardriders Club is a thriving sports club located in Sydney, Australia. Established with the aim of promoting and nurturing the sport of surfing, the club has become a prominent fixture in the local surfing community. With a strong emphasis on family-friendly and safe environments, the club strives to create a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere for individuals of all ages and skill levels.
One of the primary objectives of Long Reef Boardriders is to uphold the integrity and spirit of the sport. The club strongly believes that alcohol sales should be contained within the boundaries of the Surf Life Saving Club's premises, ensuring that the family-friendly and safe atmosphere is maintained. This opposition to extending alcohol sales beyond the club is further justified by the substantial financial support and investment from taxpayers in building the Long Reef Surf Life Saving Club's state-of-the-art facility.
The proposed extension of alcohol sales by the Surf Life Saving Club directly impacts the functioning of Long Reef Boardriders' presentations. The club has been operating from humble premises, making the most of a garage space. The encroachment on this space is highly concerning and could have a detrimental effect on the smooth running of post-competition presentations.
In addition to protecting the family-friendly atmosphere, Long Reef Boardriders recognises the inappropriateness of selling alcohol during the day on Saturdays, when the community, especially young surfers and families, come together to enjoy surf events, competitions, and celebrations. Introducing alcohol sales during these daytime events not only compromises safety but also sends the wrong message about responsible alcohol consumption.
The club is urging its members and the local community to stand united in opposing the proposed liquor licence at the Long Reef Surf Life Saving Club. They encourage individuals to participate in the public consultation process and voice their opposition to protect the values and principles that define Long Reef Boardriders. The club's president, Tash Gee, emphasises the importance of collective action in preserving the essence of the club and the safety of the community.
In addition to their advocacy efforts, Long Reef Boardriders also organises monthly club contests. Held on the last Saturday of each month, these contests provide an opportunity for club members to showcase their surfing skills and compete with one another. In the event that conditions are not suitable, the contest may be postponed to the following day or the Saturday of the following week.
To stay updated on the club's activities and contest details, individuals are encouraged to like their Facebook page, where all the necessary information is regularly published.
Long Reef Boardriders Club is not just a sports club; it's a community that is passionate about preserving the essence of surfing and creating a safe and enjoyable environment for all.
