Youth Involvement Program (YIPs)
Retention of members aged 14-17 years in lifesaving seems to be a difficult task for
Life Saving Clubs across Victoria. The Youth Involvement Program (YIPs) aims to
overcome this retention issue and help develop and engage our young members.
YIPs was originally designed by the Anglesea Surf Lifesaving Club in 2002. After
great success the program has been adopted by Life Saving Victoria and many
other clubs across Australia.
Over the past season we have seen hundreds of Victoria’s youth start their involvement in YIPs. In simple terms the YIPs program will reward young members
for all the good work they do at your club. Participants can get points for patrols,
water safety, organising club functions, mentoring, training and assessing just to
name a few areas.
Once enrolled, participants can make their way through the bronze, silver and gold
levels of the program. Each level requires the participants to achieve a basic number of points and then they will be rewarded with achieving the level. Participants will be rewarded for their involvement in the following activities:
• Patrolling
• Competition
• Club Activities or Fundraisers
• Coaching & Officiating
• Mentoring & Assisting with Junior Programs
Other activities associated with your club can be used to gather points. The program’s flexibility allows for YIPs Coordinators to create points opportunities to all
involved specific to their strengths and skills.
YIPs Handbook
The YIPs Handbook outlines all of the program requirements and will assist clubs in
setting up YIPs for their members.
This guide outlines:
• A step by step process of setting up YIPs
• Requirements for running the program
• Job descriptions for program Mentors
• Examples of letters, articles and other promotional materials
• Registration and ordering forms

Female Leadership Network
Member Protection
With female representation in Victoria, now over 50% and climbing, females are
an integral part of the past, present and future of the lifesaving movement. We
celebrate the many roles and facets that females contribute, pay tribute to the
exceptional role of our female volunteers and acknowledge the opportunity that
lifesaving brings for females to be active, participate, develop and lead.
Member Protection Policy
This initiative is something the organisation deems as extremely important part
of the future development of our female members and staff. This is another step
forward for the lifesaving movement in ensuring that females have the skills,
confidence and support to fulfil their future lifesaving and professional ambitions.
Moreover to share experiences, inspire and be inspired.
The LSV Female Leadership Network (FLN) is open to all Females 18+ within the
movement including staff and volunteers members from all roles and facets that
have a genuine interest in networking, personal growth and professional
development.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU HAVE A DISPUTE WITH ANOTHER MEMBER/CLUB
STEP 1A:
Try to sort it out yourself with the person or people involved, if you can. Sometimes
people didn’t mean to do what they did, and the matter can be sorted out by a simple explanation or apology. You should approach the person or people involved
as soon as possible, if you can.
STEP 1B:
If you aren’t sure how to handle the problem yourself, speak to a club official for
advice and support.
STEP 2:
If you have tried to handle the matter within your club and the matter is not resolved,
please email memberprotection@lsv.com.au for advice and support on next steps.
Working With Children Checks
Why is keeping children safe so important?
Life Saving Victoria is committed to the health, safety and wellbeing of all its
members and is dedicated to providing a best practise approach to ensure a safe
environment for those participating in lifesaving activities.
Life Saving Victoria is a unique organisation that has multiple purposes including
community service, sporting, education and leadership opportunities and
programs. Each of these individual aspects inter-relate with each other. It is due to
the multifaceted nature of Life Saving Victoria, that members 18 years of age and
over interact with children across a broad spectrum of activities, that this policy must
be broadly applied.
As such, any person 18 years and over, in a voluntary or salaried position, who
works with person’s under 18 years of age in any capacity is required to have a
valid Working with Children Check registered to Life Saving Victoria and their Life
Saving Club. The Department of Justice WWC Check website defines the
requirement as “Contact that is not incidental to but normally part of providing a
service or activity for children” (viewed 1 December 2013, www.workingwithchildren.vic.gov.au)
86
The following matrix illustrates the nature whereby Members 18 years and over
require a WWC Check.

Clarification regarding persons exempt under the Act - Police Officers and VIT
registered teachers
The Working with Children Act 2005 provides for exemptions to Police Officers and
VIT registered teachers. Life Saving Victoria requires these members to have a
WWC Check - despite their exemption under the Act.
Why - Without undertaking a WWC Check there is no link between your
profession as a teacher, Department of Justice employee and any volunteer
organisation in which you participate. If you breach any laws (relevant to this check
e.g. sexual misconduct) in the capacity of a teacher or Police Officer, Life Saving
Victoria will have no way of being informed of such charges.
The WWC Check creates that vital link to ensure any alleged breaches can be
picked up by the Department of Justice who then reviews and if deemed
appropriate informs all relevant voluntary organisations.
A WWC Check will consider offences of a sexual, violent and drug related nature.
The check includes:
• National criminal record check for relevant convictions, findings of guilt and relevant pending charges
• A review of relevant findings from prescribed professional disciplinary bodies (currently only the Victorian Institute of Teaching)
87
There is no difference between a volunteer and employee check except the cost. A
‘volunteer’ WWC Check is free however an ‘employee’ WWC Check requires
payment.
Please note: a Volunteer WWC Check cannot be used for employment
purposes. However you can add volunteer organisations to an Employee
WWC Check.
If my lifesaving activities involve my own child, why can’t I be exempt?
The legislation does provide certain exemptions from obtaining the check. However
given the broad nature of Life Saving Victoria’s activities, it would be almost
impossible to apply the exemptions.
Our clubs provide a broad range of activities from patrolling to competition. Many of
these activities involve the same members who may be exempt from some activities
but not others. For example a mother could be her child’s Age Manager (an activity
directly involving her as a parent) but also a patrol captain (an activity where her
child is not involved). Therefore to ensure our members are operating within the
legal framework, it is compulsory that all members 18 years and older that fall under
the definition of the WWC Check website (as above) complete a WWC Check.

Asked Questions please visit www.lsv.com.au.

Where proficiency in an award is a requirement to compete in an event, the non-proficient member will also be ineligible to compete.
Water Safety Requirements
Aquatic Activity Risk Check and Management
It is expected that an Aquatic Activity Risk Check and Management assessment is
conducted prior to any Aquatic based activity. This assessment identifies/records
plausible risks associated in conducting aquatic based Training activities.
The Aquatic Risk assessment maybe completed by a Club delegate i.e. Trainer/
Assessor in Charge or Water Safety Supervisor and completed via the SLSA online
app or the Aquatic Activity Risk Check and Management Form located on LSV’s
webpage (Club training – Resources – Evidence Forms). Alternatively if your club is
actively recording a Risk Assessment, please continue your club process.
Once an Aquatic Risk Assessment has been completed, please ensure all evidence
has been filed at the clubhouse for future reference.

NOTE: This policy refers to various positions held within SLS such as Director of
Lifesaving, Director of Surf Sports etc.
It is recognised that some Clubs, Branches and States (and in some cases at a
National level), may use a different term to describe the principal office bearer
responsible for Lifesaving or Surf Sports within that Club, Branch, State or at a
National level e.g. Chair of the Lifesaving Committee, Surf Sports Manager etc.
Where the term Director of Lifesaving, Director of Surf Sports etc. is used, it refers
to the principal person responsible for Lifesaving or Surf Sports as applicable.
1. ALL COMPETITORS MUST BE PROFICIENT
1.1 All continuing members from the Under 15 up to and including Masters age
categories who wish to compete at any SLSA competition are required to undertake
the SLSA Proficiency Test relative to their Award by 31 December each year (31
July in the Northern Territory). With the approval of SLSA, this date or similar may
also apply to areas of Northern Australia outside of NT.
1.2 Members who are not proficient as at 31 December are not permitted to patrol,
or compete in any SLSA competition, until they have obtained the required
proficiency.
1.3 In relation to eligibility to compete, the date of proficiency must be prior to the
close of entries for the event that the member
wishes to compete.
1.4 Any member completing their proficiency after 31 December each season shall
be eligible to patrol but shall not be permitted to participate in any SLSA

1.5 A member completing their proficiency after 31 December will be eligible to
compete in interclub competition (nonchampionship).
103
1.6 Those members gaining their Surf Rescue Certificate or Bronze Medallion in
the period from 1 June of the preceding year will be considered as satisfying the
proficiency requirements for entry to competition.
1.7 New members who gain their respective award (or proficiency in the case of
recognition of an ILS overseas equivalent member country award), after the closing
date of entries for a championship, are not permitted entry to that competition.
1.8 Proficient age group members, who gain their Surf Rescue Certificate or
proficient Surf Rescue Certificate Members who gain their Bronze Medallion after
the close of entries of a championship, are considered as continuing members, not
new members, and therefore may be entered as a late entry into competition.
1.9 Non proficient age group members, who gain their Surf Rescue Certificate or
non-proficient Surf Rescue Certificate Members who gain their Bronze Medallion
after the close of entries of a championship, are not eligible late entry into that

3.5 The minimum patrol hour requirement for a new member, a member rejoining a
club (was not a member of SLSA between 1 October to 30 September of the
previous season), or a member returning after a leave of absence must not be less
than 4 hours before the close of entries for the competition the member wishes to
enter.
NOTE: For a leave of absence to be recognised in relation to this policy, it must be constituted by the member’s club, and the individuals who meet the leave of absence criteria should be noted in club minutes and
endorsed by the respective Branch/State centre by 31 December each year.
3.6 SLSA reserves the right to select members from some or all entries, and to ask
the respective State Centre to examine the eligibility of these members.
3.7 Where clubs consider their members are disadvantaged by the minimum patrol
requirements in this policy, they may make an application for a variation to the patrol
hour requirement through their respective Branch and/or State Centre. This
application must be on an annual basis.
3.8 Hours shall only be calculated from the following:
a) Rostered patrols (as detailed in state and territory lifesaving
agreements);
b) Substitute patrols (hours will be credited to the member who has
actually undertook the patrol - NOT the member for whom the substitution was done);
c) Make up patrols for approved absences as determined by the Club to cover illness, study, competition etc.;
d) Voluntary patrols for SLSA approved Support Operations e.g.
Helicopter, Jet Rescue Boats, Offshore Rescue Boats, Rescue Water Craft, SurfCom Communication Centres;
e) Duty Officers from the time that they are tasked to an incident and when at the scene of an incident for which they have been tasked, and which they are actively monitoring/supervising.
f) Water Safety for Junior Activities (not including Surf Sports training);
g) Water Safety at both open/senior and junior SLS surf sport carnivals;
NOTE: Personal hours for water safety (open/senior and junior carnivals) can only be counted if the member is signed on and completes rostered water safety activities.
h) State sanctioned special events and commercial water safety (fee for service): for sanctioned events (e.g. ocean swims and paddle races) and water safety provided under a commercial agreement (including donations to a club or service) that have the endorsement of State/Territory Director of Lifesaving.
106
Exclusions: Hours cannot be calculated from:
i) Penalty patrol hours
j) Personal Coaching: refers to instances where a coach (paid or unpaid) provides specific tuition in aquatic skills to individual members or a select group of members;
k) Training squads (Surf Sports or other): refers to a group of selected members who are being trained by a coach (paid or unpaid).
l) State sanctioned special events and commercial water safety (fee for service): for sanctioned events (e.g. ocean swims and paddle races) and water safety provided under a commercial agreement where individual member(s) receives remuneration.
m) Surf Sport Official roles e.g. sectional referee, judging in a boat/
elevated platform
n) Members employed as lifeguards, helicopter crew or beach inspectors: are not exempt from fulfilling personal voluntary patrol hour obligations.
3.9 All patrol hours must be recorded in the patrol or service logbook and entered in
SurfGuard.
NOTE: Clubs may record directly into SurfGuard with the permission of the relevant State.
3.10 A member will be credited with and recognised for all beach patrol hours
completed irrespective of where those hours were completed. The practical aspect
of this is that a member may patrol for one SLSA club and compete for a different
SLSA club. Providing that they are not in breach of their financial and club
obligations, or patrol hour requirements, at either club, they will be eligible to
compete.
3.11 Any member who is a member of more than one SLSA club shall be entitled to
compete in intra club events of all such clubs of which they are a member.
Default hours
3.12 A member’s patrol default hours and/or missed patrols will be dealt with
entirely by the member’s Club(s) - when a person is a member of more than one
Club.
If the member’s Club believes that the member has fulfilled his/her patrol
obligations, then, subject to the minimum number of patrol hours being completed
(as per 3.4 Table 1 or 3.5), and all other requirements as set out in this policy being
met for the member’s Club(s), then that member will be able to compete.
107
3.13 SLSA has provided the following guidelines in relation to default hours.
a) Default hours are recorded when a person who is rostered to a patrol is absent from that patrol without club approval or has not appointed a substitute member.
b) If the member arranges a substitute for a patrol, they are not in default if the member who accepted the substitute is absent from the patrol. The person who accepted the substitution is the defaulting member.
c) A substitute is another qualified proficient member.
NOTE: It is a requirement that the member performing the substitute has, at least, the same minimum qualifications of the person for whom the
substitute has been arranged. This will ensure that the minimum patrol strength and qualifications are retained on patrol. e.g., a Bronze award
member who requires the substitute must have at least a Bronze award member; similarly, a qualified patrol captain must have at least a member with a patrol captain’s qualification.
f) Members holding office in the Association at Branch, State or National level. Note: This is limited to members who hold principal office and does not include members of committees. Application may be made to Branch/
State for clarification/exemption in relation to principal office bearers.
g) Members on special SLSA assignment e.g. members of national SLSA/
ILS representative teams for the duration of the competition, instructional tour and/or other approved activity.
h) Special deployment on Military Service.
4.4 SLSA also recognise the service performed by Long Service and Life Members
from other Australian surf life saving clubs, that is, the exemption from patrol hours
applies to a Long Service or Life Member irrespective of where that service was
carried out.
d) Penalty patrols are excluded from recovering default hours.
e) Make up hours are permitted to recover default hours.
f) Competitors must not be in default of patrol hour obligations (as
determined by their club) at the closing date of entries.
3.14 Penalties including the forfeiture of entry fees shall apply to Clubs entering
members who have not fulfilled their minimum patrol hour obligations.
4. EXEMPTIONS FROM PATROL HOURS
4.1 A club may give special consideration for full or partial exemption from patrol
obligations to members who fall into any of the following categories:
a) Principal Club Office Bearers - President, Club Captain, Club Vice
Captain, Lifesaving Director, Chief Instructor, Chief Training Officer,
Education Director, Patrol Supervisor, Treasurer, Secretary, and Junior Activities Chair.
NOTE: Exemptions for principal office bearers are limited to the above defined roles although it is recognised that some clubs have different titles for members fulfilling these roles. Application may be made to Branch/
State for clarification/exemption in relation to principal office bearers.
b) Life Members.
c) Long Service Members.
d) Reserve Active Members. NOTE: Partial exemption is provided within this policy (see Table 1).
e) Members that undertake lifesaving duties in other areas such as
offshore rescue boat, aerial services, support services, operational support and similar areas of active surf life saving.
108
4.2 Any exemptions listed above must be constituted by the member’s Club, and
the individuals who meet criteria should be noted in club minutes and endorsed by
the respective Branch/State centre by 31 December each year.
4.3 SLSA will recognise all Club members listed as a Long Service or Life Member
as recorded in SurfGuard. No annual endorsement of Long Service or Life Members
is required providing that these members are correctly recorded within SurfGuard.
4.5 It is recognised that some Clubs may require additional patrol hour obligations
of members transferring from another Club. It is a matter for the individual Club
whether they believe that a member has fulfilled their patrol hour obligation under
their individual Club requirements.

of those members entered.
5.3 The proficiency and assessment documents shall also be marked clearly to

eligible for late entry into competition.

non-proficient Surf Rescue Certificate Members who gain their Bronze Medallion
after the close of entries, are not eligible for late entry into competition.
