youth pathways

Our Youth Program for members aged U14 – U17 continues to engage across all pillars of surf life saving.

With our annual youth development camps, the opt-in Youth Recognition Program (YRP) which sees participants progress through achievement levels over a period of years, and our Youth Pathway Courses, which introduce members to the pathways available to them as they progress in their journey through surf life saving, there are countless opportunities to engage, grow, and make the most of surf life saving!
