OUR CLUB

ABOUT US

​South Maroubra Surf Life Saving Club Inc. is a voluntary organisation, established in 1959,  to provide a safe beach environment at the south end of the iconic Maroubra Beach. We're affiliated with Surf Life Saving Sydney, Surf Life Saving NSW and Surf Life Saving Australia. 

Our club is nestled in Arthur Byrne Reserve located off Fitzgerald Ave, Bernie Kelly Drive, South Maroubra. We are accessible by car with a 200 plus car park facility or by foot with a bus stop 250 metres. We fall within the Randwick City Council municipality.

CLUB FACTS
​

The South Maroubra Surf Club started when a group of men from Malabar saw the need for lifesaving services at the South end of Maroubra Beach. Since then we've grown to a club with over 1000 members from all walks of life dedicated to keeping our beach safe. Our patrolled beach has never lost a life, between the red and yellow flags, while a patrol has been on duty.

We're a progressive club that enjoys a great connection with our local community, councils, registered clubs, local pubs and other significant corporations in the area. We are most fortunate to have the former premier of NSW, Mr Bob Carr as our club Life Patron along with William 'Bill' Haigh former State Labor Member for Maroubra and Randwick City Council Mayor. Michael Daley the current State Member for Maroubra is our Club Patron, and a frequent visitor to our club.

​
South Maroubra has been widely acknowledged throughout its history as a provider of 'Outstanding Community Service', this title extends to Lifesaving Services provided and a general commitment to a better all-round community.
​

OUR MANAGEMENT

Our club is administered by a Board of Directors, elected annually by our members. The current club chairman is Mr Paul Fownes who has been an active lifesaver for over 25 years. A number of committees assist the directors in ensuring we run the best club we can.
