PATROL

PATROLLING AT MAROUBRA BEACH

Our lifesavers patrol Maroubra Beach from September through to April on every weekend and public holidays. 

​Each team will do about 8-9 patrols each season. Each team has a designated Patrol Captain and Vice Captain who are responsible for the management of the team while on duty.  

You'll recognise our patrol team members by the iconic DHL sponsored uniform of red/yellow quartered cap, yellow long sleeve t-shirt and red shorts.

SKILLS MAINTENANCE

​Our primary role is to protect the public visiting our beach, and making rescues where needed. In order to do this we need to ensure our lifesavers have maintained all the skills covered to keep the beach safe. 

ALL MEMBERS WHO INTEND TO PATROL AND COMPETE MUST MAINTAIN PROFICIENCY

2025/26 Season Skills Maintenance dates:

Bronze Medallion, Surf Rescue Certificate (SRC) and ARTC Skills Maintenance will contain both online and practical requirements this season.

You MUST complete both online and practical portions of skills maintenance to be sign off as proficient!

​The online portion needs to be complete before attending the practical session or we will not be able to process your proficiency.

There is a significant update this season for Skills Maintenance for the Bronze Medallion, Surf Rescue Certificate (SRC) and Advanced Resuscitation this season.
