Henley SLSC offers a range of memberships. Please select the ‘Read More’ next to each membership to find out more.
Active Senior member:
To become an active senior member of Henley SLSC you must first complete the Bronze Medallion course. This award ensures you are suitably qualified to patrol the beach. You must have reached 15 years of age to qualify for the Bronze medallion. Whilst you are training for your Bronze Medallion, you are classified as a Probationary member and only have access to the club facilities, gym, equipment and craft whilst under the supervision of a qualified Henley SLSC trainer.
Once you have your Bronze Medallion, you will be allocated to a patrol group, where you will have the opportunity to patrol the beach along with other surf lifesavers from Henley SLSC.
Patrol is held for 5-6 hours each Saturday, Sunday and public holiday afternoon during the summer from October to April. Your patrol group is generally allocated 5-6 sessions across the season. Patrols are a great way to assist the community, make great friends and develop new skills.
As an active senior member, you have access to the club and all its facilities, including the gym, change-rooms and surf craft. You are also able to compete for the club in a range of surf sports.
Current members can access the Members Login for up-to-date patrol and event information.
