South Maroubra Presentation 2020/21

Our senior club Presentation Night was held on Saturday 5 June, after being postponed from May due to COVID. It was certianly a WILD night with everyone embrasing the Jungle/Safari theme and led by our tour guide Nicole Cooney, Director of Lifesaving Services.

Noah Teitler and Andrew Newrick were certainly the big winners of the night, and well deserved recognition of their dedictaion and service to the club

Congraulations to all our winners!

Keep reading to see our winners by section, and if you weren't able to join us on the night be sure to stop by the office and see Michelle for your prize. The Club office is open Tuesday and Friday from 9am - 4pm.

Check out all the pictures on our Facebook page!

​
Lifeaving patrol awards
It was a big season for lifesaving with a number of rescues, first aids and preventative actions. It was certainly an indication of the increased visitation we expereinced this season.

Great job by our Top 10 patrolling members for the season, who pulled some big hours - many who have plenty of additional un-recorded hours as well.

Make sure you come to the club office and pick up your prize if you didnt get it on the night!
 Lifesaving eductaion awards
Our eductaion team had a massive season this year training over 130 new lifesavers while rolling out the new SRC and Bronze medallion courses. They put in a lot of hours making sure we have some of the best lifesavers in the country! A massive thank you to all of our trainers and assessors.

Congtratulations to all of our new lifesavers, and to all of those who up-skilled and trained in new awards! Be sure to come by the club office and pick up your certificates and medallions.
Competition awards
Our competitors were happy to be back on the sand and in the ocean after their season was cancelled last year. This season also saw our Youth Competitor go to Aussies with great success.

Congratulations to all our medallist and a big thank you to all our coaches and officials.
Major Awards
​Kicking off the Major awards for the night was Competition. While everyone puts in a big effort here are some competitors and coaches who excelled this season.

​It's great to see a few of our Youth competitors win awards, with Lucas, Evan and Lillie all taking away awards in their discplines. We'll certianly keep an eye on them as future State and Australian Champions. Dave walks away with Ski Competitor of the Year and Jennie and Max joint winners as Masters Competitors of the Year. We see Andy take the top prize, and his first award of the night, as Coach of the Year!
Next up we have our Major lifesaving awards - and some well deserving award winners.

Noah walks away with his first award of the night with Junior Lifesaver of the Year, following on from his recent Sydney Branch awards for Junior Lifesaver of the Year and U15s Lifesaver of the Year. Here Andy picks up another 2 awards for Senior Lifesaver of the Year and PC of the Year!  Rene take the IRB Person of the Year, with his dedictaion to lifesaving IRB services.

We also recognise our dedicated trainers. ​Codie who in her first season as a trainer became qualified as both an SRC and ARTC trainer and helped with the Bronze squad takes away Rookie Trainer of the Year. Nicole, who took on the role of CTO for most of the season on top of her DOL responcibilities, guiding both new and experienced trainers through the launch of the new SRC and BM course, takes away the Trainer of the Year award. 
And finally onto the Major Club Awards, which are our Club’s highest awards, and are given to those who have contributed overall to the Club.

Noah backs up his previous awards with a well deserverd Most Outstanding Cadet of the Year, I am sure we will see much more of Noah in the years to come. Isabella takes out Most Outstanding Junior of the Year with her services to lifesaving patrol as well as training. Most Outstanding Senior of the Year goes to Darren who was highly involved in nippers operations and water safety, as well in the lifesaving space mentoring new PCs. Our Associates of the Year are our dedictaed caretakers, Barry and Leslie, who over the COVID shutdown worked hard around the clubhouse in assisting with upgrades. The final, and biggest club honour, Clubman of the Year was awarded to Maria - who played a big role in the competition section as well as the lifesaving section looking after our Youth and creating many social outlets for them.

Great effort all, and once again congratulations!
Finally we can do it without our sponsors and supporters!

This time, the AIS will have a well known athlete that will deliver the last part of the program. At the end of this session, the team will enjoy a social get together with pizzas provided by Dominos Matraville.

This part of the season, we have moved from Oz-Tag to Mixed Netball, our team, 'The Baywatch' is participating and representing our club at the Mixed Netball Competition run at Heffron Park, the team has had so much fun, great social evening, building team work, friendships and camaraderie.

The competition section has also invited our youth members that are interested in competing and representing our club to meet them at our club this Sunday at 9:30AM.

Our youth boaties are hard at training with Captain Phil, keep an eye out for their development.

​As advised in our last Blu-ing we will be dedicating Sunday Social 1 November 2020  from 12 noon, Heritage Room - to recognise and celebrate 40 Years of Women in SLS and especially our female members past and present.

We extend an invitation to members to join us on this day and especially reach out to the many female trail blazing members who have been part of the last 40 years of Women in SLS of our Club. 
Please join us on the day for an informal social get together - bar will be open at club prices - and as mentioned we will be sharing with you all a PPT presentation of photos recognising females from within the club.
Any more photos for inclusion can be emailed to me at [email protected]  I would love to get some more so we can cover off on the 4 decades of contribution.

Whilst there is no formalities for the day, we would envisage a short welcome to all at approximately 1.00 pm before presenting the slide show of photos and would love to have as many of our females past and present at the club on the day.

I am still keen to contact our first 3 female Bronze Medallion awardees -  Helen Veale, Aileen Wilson, Bronwyn Roberts to invite them to join us on this day.  If any member has any contact details for these past members or their family could you please please let me know   [email protected].  I will be reaching out via face book also to seek contact with these 3 ladies.

We look forward to seeing you on Sunday 1 November from 12 noon

This year the U16 and U 18 Coordinator roles have been filled after a few seasons off. The aim of this role is to keep our young SRCs and Bronzies engaged, involved and aware of all opportunities the Club and Surf Life Saving can offer.

Last weekend saw our first Cadet Board and Ski training with Dave Lowlett and Shane White kindly towing the gear to Malabar (and back) and coaching the Club’s future. The skis proved to be a tad tricky, but another great South Maroubra afternoon was had by all.

We are in the early stages of organising the Cadet training groups, more details will be emailed directly. Huge thanks to our Board, Ski, Swim and Run Coordinators.

For the Diary
December 14:
Garie Beach Patrol– a great all day patrol with heaps of good food and plenty opportunity to work on your board and crew skills – an ideal first patrol for the New SRCs and Bronzies.
December 27: Applications for SLSS 15-17s Young Leaders Programme Close

Down the track we are investigating the possibility of:
Afternoon Beach Cricket Session and BBQ
Movie/Bowling Night
South Maroubra OzTag Team
South Maroubra Netball Team

Get involved! If you have any queries or idea, we can be contacted at [email protected]
