These requirements are set out in the City of Perth SLSC Juniors Nippers Hand Book 2017/18 and must be incorporated in the letter.

 

Parents, for your nippers to be able to participate in any carnivals our club needs to provide officials to help with the smooth running of the events.
To become an official it will require you to attend a morning course with Surf Lifesaving – Date TBC.
Please note, there will be a small cost for this qualification.

If this is something you think you would like to take part in, can you please message Tamsyn Young on citynippers@gmail.com with your contact details.
If we do not provide Officials then we will not be able to attend the carnivals.

 

 SLSWA Level 1 Officials Course:

SLSWA will be running Level 1 Official Courses as part of the continuing development of members.
