President’s Report
Well I have to say that it has been a most challenging season after the tragic loss of one
our youngest Nippers, Elizabeth Tucker, before the season had even commenced late
September 2012. The weather and surf conditions have been less than favourable,
especially since Christmas, to the point where we were unable to complete the Club
Championships in all age groups which was somewhat disappointing.
Despite this, I think we have managed to build on the strong foundations left by Peter
Smyth and the outgoing committee and are again in a good position to further develop next
season. Before I do get on to some of the highlights of the season I would like to thank all
the members of this year’s Junior Committee, not all positions where filled and everyone
has been working especially hard this season to keep the engine moving, in particular:

Geoff Halpin (Secretary) for your support all season and assistance recruiting
age managers.

Peter Smyth (Assistant Secretary) for guiding me through my first season as
Chairperson.

Rob Kaines (Senior Club Treasurer) who stepped in to assist after the
resignation of Rod Tucker, Rob’s experience was invaluable.

Colleen Hill (Registrar) by default put in a lot of overtime at the start of the
season to complete the paperwork and keep the registrations up to date.

Josh Holmes (Competition Secretary) who has diligently managed the
attendance roles and competition entries, as well as stepping in to fill the Under
10 Age Manager position.

Dean Ralston (Newsletter) who has done a fabulous job producing the best SLS
newsletter on the Northern Beaches from what I have seen.

Glen Jones (Water Safety Officer) for running an efficient operation under
challenging conditions most weeks.

Sarah Monteleone (Clothing) with regular assistance from Leanne McNeil did a
brilliant job looking after the clothing for a second season.

Katina Hurd and Kate Marshall (BBQ Coordinators) who, along with Kenny
Holmes, have done an awesome job each Sunday morning, often with limited
assistance
All of these tasks are unrelenting and we couldn’t manage without anyone of them, your
commitment to the Club is most appreciated.
A big thank you also goes out to all of the Age Managers, many in their first season, who
have the arduous task of channeling a lot of youthful energy each week, and from what I
can see have all made excellent progress. Thanks also to Janice Wordley, Senior Club
President, and Senior Club Committee who have provided financial assistance as well as
resources for proficiency assessments and valuable advice throughout the season.

As for highlights of the season I would have to say our March Past team at the Northern
Beaches Branch Championships was pretty special; it is amazing what can be achieved in
a short period with a little bit of hard work and dedication! Well done and a big thank you to
Leanne Hickey and Antionella Ryan for coaching the team. Not to be outdone, Jason
Smyth picked up our only Gold medal at the Branch Championships and backed it up with
a Bronze at the State Championships; our first State medal for a couple of Years now.
Congratulations Jason! There were plenty of other great results at all of this season’s
carnivals and hopefully we can build on that and turn them into gold medals next season.
Thanks to our major sponsor ‘Eden Brae Homes’; enabling us once again to kit out our
carnival competitors in new ‘high-vis’ lycra singlets and sell them at a subsidised cost to all
Club members. Thanks also to ‘Entendre Group’ for design and distribution of our weekly
newsletter, the Newport Arms Hotel for providing awards and Bonds for provision of
rashies; your support is greatly appreciated.
As everyone takes to their respective winter sports please consider what you can do for the
Club next year. We operated quite lean this season and it isn’t sustainable going forward.
We can only continue to develop if we have more Age Managers, Water Safety and
Committee Members, so before the commencement of next season we will again be
looking for parents to undertake Bronze Training, Officials Courses or even just helping out
at a clean-up day. Personally, I can see so much opportunity but it won’t be realised
without adequate support and guidance.
Finally I would like to thank all the parents and kids for a fun season. Whilst I love to see
the kids compete well, the expression on an Under 9’s face after the crack at a great wave
or get ‘smoked’ by a big set is still something I get a kick out every time I go to the beach.
Regards
Darren Marshall

Age Manager’s Reports
Under 6 girls
I really can’t believe how quick this year
went. I remember more than fifty girls
showing up on the first Sunday of the
season. Luckily there were Fiona, Fran,
Kirralee, Jeroen and a good number of
helping parents to keep these very
energetic girls going during the Nippers
sessions. Busy we were indeed as the
morning was always fully packed with lots
of activities.
During the year the girls have greatly
improved their sprinting as we would
usually start the day with a couple of sprints
(to warm up those muscles) followed by a
relay and flags.
With the relays we did not only improve our
beach sprinting skills but also our
concentration (where do I have to run to,
after how many runs do I have to sit down
etc?) and team work. In that respect we
think the girls really improved during the
year as we saw some great races in the
last couple of weeks.
Flags, as mentioned before was of course
also part of the fun. I think every girl
improved in that area as well. Flags is a
combination of many skill e.g.
concentration (when can I get up, where
are the flags?), reaction (being able to get
up quick), sprinting, and diving. During the
year we have focused on all these skills
and the result is that we now have a
number of competitive girls in this
discipline.
Whilst everybody enjoyed doing flags and
relays, I think it is almost an
understatement to say that the girls
thoroughly enjoyed the water.
Unfortunately, Pluvius, the Roman god of
rain, was not very kind to us this season so
the total number of days that we could go in
the surf was only two, but fortunately we
could go in the lagoon. Every week we
would end the day with a wade in the
lagoon or a swim in the surf on the days
when that was possible.
The wades always took place in the lagoon
where the water is not too deep and where
there is a bit of current. We did many runs
through the water and combined the
running with a bit of swimming as well.
Everybody showed great swimming skills
and we saw many dolphin dives too. Great
work there!
The days that we were able to get in the
surf were big events for the girls. The
ocean is big, there are currents and of
course waves that can easily knock you
over (not to mention sharks and blue
bottles) so there was a little bit of
uneasiness the first time we went in.
However, everybody did go in and we
never looked back. We have all conquered
the surf – bring out the surf boards!
We all think it was a great and I think
everybody deserved a trophy, unfortunately
we could only give away two trophies and
this year the trophies go to Manon and
Sophie!
Well done everybody and we all hope to
see you again in the next season.

Under 6 Boys
What a fantastic first year of nippers for the
boys. Here is a sport the boys see on TV,
and now every Sunday morning in summer,
they are all motivated to try a new sport,
surf life saving, nippers style. The boys
experienced sprints, sprint relays, flags, the
North Narrabeen SLSC – Nippers Annual Report 2012/2013

wade, the swim and the board events. All
the children improved throughout the
season, gaining valuable experience
especially the use of the lake with its
different tides and water depth. The boys
loved the use of the boards, experiencing
"the art of balance", a wonderful sight. With
this new found confidence, the boys
attempted their first IRON MAN event with
great success, WELL DONE BOYS. The
boys also enjoyed building sand castles
and TUG OF WAR against the parents
(untill the rope broke). This season has
been very rewarding for Jason and myself,
we would just like to thank all the boys for
their enthusiasm and participation,
THANKS BOYS. We would also like to
thank all the parents for bringing the
children down to nippers each week as well
as assisting us with support and water
safety, THANK YOU.
Jason Green and Greg Kelly
Under 7 Girls
The first tentative steps on the sand this
year was no reflection of how the girls
finished. The confidence gained was
amazing to watch throughout the year.
There was 35 girls start the year & we
regularly had over 20 attend each week.
We have some really fast girls in the group
constantly pushing each other in a friendly
yet competitive nature. This was defined in
our last series of flags & sprints against the
Under 7 Boys, they really thought the girls
were push overs, it was not the case & the
girls carried themselves well & were more
than competitive.
The biggest & most important improvement
was in the water. The girls & I mean all the
girls grew an extra set of legs when it came
to the surf. The conditions all year were not
ideal, with dangerous currents & big waves
throwing up many reasons for the girls to
back out, most pleasing was they didn’t. No
squealing, listening & doing what they were
told when they were told really made them
a pleasure to be with. I can remember a
couple of times watching the concern on
the Patrols watching nervously only to see
them sit down & watch in amazement at the
confidence & ability that the girls
possessed in the surf. Getting them in was
never a drama, getting them out was
harder.
Special thanks to all the parents that
contributed to the achievements of the girls
this year, it would not have been possible
without you. Hopefully the girls are inspired
enough to come back next year.
Geoff Halpin and Darren Fairhall

Neil Baker and Sean Wilkinson
Under 8 Girls
Firstly we would like to say what an
enjoyable summer it has been with our
group of girls and also with a very
supportive group of parents helping out
every Sunday- thank you to you all.
At the start of the summer we had girls with
varying abilities in the water. By the end of
the summer the girls have all improved, this
is evident by the closeness of the races
and the girls wanting to do more water
events than beach events. Getting the girls
out of the water at the end of summer was
harder than getting some of them in at the
start of the season. For us that means a
successful season, as we did really try to
concentrate on the water, rather than the
beach. Well done girls. Congratulations to
the girls who have won the point scores,
the club championships and our age
managers’ awards, you fully deserved
them. Also thanks must go to Lesley
(Imogen’s mum) for being our ghost writer
for the newsletter.

Next year the girls move on to the under 9s
which means more time in the surf and on
the boards and I hope all the girls come
back, especially the out of area girls (bring
your friends).
Jason Alkire and Peter Smyth
Under 8 Boys
Congratulations to all the U/8 Boys, you all
stepped up this year with each year gaining
more confidence and ability. The
swimming, running and listening has
improved dramaticially from the beginning
of the season and the passion for the water
is unbelievable (I think by far the favourite
event). Good Luck to all the boys, I think
its been a great year. A massive Thank
you to all the parents that have helped out
as Nippers couldn't run smoothly each
week without your assistance - so Thank
you !! Also well done to all the boys that
have competed in the Carnival events, its a
lot harder competing against other clubs
than your own and it a whole other level of
competition - Good Job !! Looking forward
to seeing you all next year.
Peter Domanski and Adam Cauvin
Under 9 Girls
This season we set goals for the girls to
achieve greater surf awareness, safety and
confidence. This included identifying flags
on the beach, hand signals, currents and
rips. All girls advanced their knowledge and
are becoming ever more comfortable within
a surf beach environment. Well done
This is the first year the girls were allowed
to challenge themselves with swimming
and board paddling out into the waves and
around the marker buoys. This was a major
step up for everybody (including a few
dads) as most of the girls had only spent
time in the lake and pool previously, and of
course, being North Narra there was
always tough conditions and a fair swell to
deal with. The girls consistently tried hard
in the swim, showing strength and
determination to push out through the
waves and body surf some nice waves
back in to the beach. On the boards the
girls learnt how to roll off and on when
paddling out through the waves. There
were some entertaining white knuckled
rides back to the beach. Special mention to
Andrew and Darren for your assistance.
On the sand, we worked hard on our
starts, reaction time and finishes with some
great dives at the flags. Our sprints and
relays were also strongly contested with
different girls challenging for places each
week. We added different starting
techniques and as their beach running
fitness improved the girls performances
increased. General improvement across
the group was evident with fierce
competition every week.
A big thank you to the parents who have
helped out throughout the year, I really
appreciate your assistance. Being able to
swim with your daughter, enabled them to
complete the event safely and boost their
confidence. Thank you to Paul who has
been a great co-age manager, thanks
heaps for all your help and support.
The girls are getting physically stronger and
faster and are keen to give it a go. They
love competing hard against each other but
more importantly are developing strong
team spirit as a group and building some
great friendships. They are a great bunch
of girls who are always happy with smiling
faces and are always respectful, polite and
friendly towards each other. Well done to
all for a great season of nippers.
John Tyson and Paul Millet
Under 9 Boys
Despite beach & surf conditions being
unpredictable we saw a huge improvement
in the boys swimming and surf awareness.

It was great to see most of the boys with
their heads down doing freestyle & dolphin
diving during the ocean swims. The board
racing reached a higher level with the boys
learning to judge the waves and Eskimo
roll.
Once again a big thank you to all the
parents who helped out each week and I
look forward to seeing you all next season.
Mitch Smith
Under 10 Girls
The under 10 girls have had a wonderful
season, showing great sportsmanship and
excelling at all of their events. At the start of
the season most of the girls didn't like the
water events very much at all, now they
have conquered the water events showing
great confidence in both the swim and the
boards and some even competing in the
carnivals. They always worked together as
a team, and at carnival they received a 3rd
place in the relay event, and placed in the
flag event too. In the beach sprint they are
very competitive and only seconds apart,
all trying there hardest to improve their
skills. Well done girls.
Samantha Fairhall
Under 10 Boys
The 2012/2013 season saw a core group of
boys return for the new season, with Alex,
Angus, Fin, Henry, Jai, Ky and Tristan
making up the regulars attending. We
welcomed 3 new nippers to North
Narrabeen under 10’s this year with Calvin,
Jonah and Matthew joining us for their first
experience at Nippers. All 3 boys learnt the
new skills required to participate quickly
and enjoyed the weekly competition.
Angus, Fin, Henry, Jai and Tristan made up
our representative competition group and
made strong improvements in all 5
carnivals this season. Henry took several
places throughout the season.
Congratulations also to our 10’s carnival
boys who made up the major part of the
North Narrabeen March past team. Back on
our own beach, Alex and Ky showed great
improvement with Alex taking regular
places on the board and Ky consistently
taking out the Beach events. The Club
Championships were a tough day at the
Beach with Angus dominating the water
events and Ky winning both Beach events.
Congratulations must go to the most
consistent and hardworking nipper of the
season who always gave his best and
achieved placings in all 4 events was
Tristan.
Josh Holmes
Under 11, 12 & 13 Girls.
Well another summer season has come to
a close. It started out very positively and
we had some great conditions up to
Christmas and January but came crashing
to the ground with a thud in February!
Brendan Hulme and myself were the Age
Managers for the 11, 12 & 13 year old
girls. It was great to join the girls together
to give the younger ones some confidence
in the surf and also to give the older girls a
push along and to try and keep them off
social media for more than hour! None the
less it was a strong start to the season and
we had a combined number of 23 girls
registered between the 3 age groups. We
also had 18 of these girls proficient which is
great. Unfortunately the numbers started to
drop steadily over the course of the season
and we averaged approximately 12 girls
each Sunday. Overall the girls have
progressed well, have gained confidence in
the surf and even enjoyed catching waves
on the board. They have also cemented
friendships, which has been great to watch.
On behalf of Brendan and myself, I would
like to thank all the girls for the year gone
and hope to see all of them back again next

year with renewed confidence and great big
smiles. We would also like to thank many
of the parents who helped out during the
year and it would greatly appreciate if more
could help out next year.
assistant. To all the boys and your families
enjoy the winter months and I hope to see
all of you back next season.
Great Year Under 11,12 &13 Girls. See you
next Year!

Under 11 Boys
It only feels like the start of the season and
here we are at the end of the nipper’s year
again. Whilst we lost some of the boys
from last year, we were joined by Tomas a
wonderful state pool swimmer who quickly
showed us that he was going to be a force
in the surf as well.
Nathan, Lawrence, Max, Oscar, Michael,
Daniel and Mitch all returned for another
year and it has been great to see the
confidence in all the boys in the
water. Whilst Lawrence and Oscar have
always had confidence in the surf, the
other boys it has not come as quickly and
in fact I was not a prouder age manager
when a few weeks before the end of the
season both Michael and Mitch entered the
surf swim in a very long time and both
finished in the top 6. A little confidence
goes a long way…..
All the boys have had a great year on the
beach but it has been a tight tussle
between Nathan, Lawrence and Mitch in
most of the beach activities. Daniel has
also improved so much this year especially
with his confidence in the surf and on the
board.
I would like to thank Claire and Kathy and
all the parents who have helped me each
week but a very big thank you must go to
Peter (Tomas’s Dad) who travels close to
an hour each week to bring Tomas and the
family to nippers but week in, week out is
there helping me as my unofficial
Vicki Halpin.

Under 12 Boys
Under 12 Boys were thrown in with the 13’s
&14’s this year though you would never
have known they were the younger they
competed brilliantly against the older kids.
Their skills & enthusiasm grew each week
as you could see they enjoyed taking on
the older kids. With a good core group they
turned up weekly & took on anything we
threw at them. The surf rescue I think was
a favourite with a combination of Ben &
Luke (U14) taking out one of our earlier
challenges – no one at that time realized
how fast Ben was in the water. Well done
to all your carnival efforts. Jason winning
gold at branch was a brilliant effort. James,
Tom & Ben also competing with the NN
spirit. Sad to see the Boon family go. Good
luck but we now you won’t keep away.
Austin, Raff and the rest of the boys it’s
always fun having you amongst the group.
Hope to see you all next year, It’s been
great,

Well done boys another great season. Only
a small group left but great camaraderie
between the boys. Went to all the carnivals
and always competed well. Jason & Cam
ready & eager to give their all a go in the
water. Some great results in both swim &
board and very impressive fourth in surf
rescue. Jake, Luka & Conor always
North Narrabeen SLSC – Nippers Annual Report 2012/2013

competed well with our water boys at NN
though at the carnivals were more focused
on the beach. Some great results from the
carnivals, Conor gained a second in the
flags & usually made the finals in the sprint.
Jake decided to join the carnival competing
at branch and did really well but as it goes
luck can be with you or against you.
It has been a great season, we joined the
13’s with the 12’s & 14’s this year to make
our “Snr” group & how good did they all go.
Didn’t matter size or age no one gave an
inch to let any other get the better ( unless
there was a crash tackle or two) Tom, Mick
& Dan are fantastic with the boys improving
their skills every week. Well done to all the
boys, it’s been fun. Come back next year
bring a few friend, it’s the last & we will
make it the best.
Leanne Hickey and Tom Winny
Under 14 Girls
We had 2 girls to finish off their nippers
career and I believe they are the two
longest serving members in their age
group. Much to their disgust they had to
share most of their events with the U12 and
U14 boys. They both enjoyed their last year
with the highlights being Jasmine finishing
10th in the swim at the Narrabeen Carnival
and I Mick Malone managing to get Kate
McKay to do one final swim (honestly it was
like asking her to let me perform amateur
dentistry). I wish them both the best of luck
for their futures and hope they stay
associated with Surf Life Saving.
The boys attended all the allotted carnivals
this year other than state, with some
challenging swims, and they had a bit of
fun in the board rescue as well, (we all had
smiles on our face when they got smashed
in the shorey at Queensie)
Both Luke and Jye have progress in their
surf lifesaving, completing their SRC and
patrolling regularly. Also, assisting with
water safety week to week. Great work
guys, that’s what you set out to achieve in
U6s!
I’m personally very proud of the boys
completing their nippers, as it takes a great
deal of commitment over the years as the
numbers start to drop.
Best of luck in the future boys, I hope to
see you competing in the seniors or on
patrol.
Dan McDonough and Mick Malone
Dan McDonough and Mick Malone
U14 Boys.
Well the season was a bit hit and miss but
the boys managed to get a couple good
beach days in.
Combining with the U13s and U12s for
most weeks worked well this year to boost
numbers and a little competition.
