π Volunteer of the Week β Nick Straight π
This week weβre proud to recognise Nick Straight, a true champion of our Nippers program and a long-standing contributor to Trigg Island SLSC πβ€οΈπ€
For over 10 years, Nick has been a dedicated Nipper Age Manager, driven by a genuine passion for making sure every child gets the most out of their Nippers experience. Alongside his wife Mellie, Nick has helped create a positive, inclusive and supportive environment for our youngest members.
Beyond Sundays, youβll often find Nick on the beach early Tuesday and Thursday mornings, delivering board and iron sessions, supporting coaches, providing water safety and stepping in wherever needed.
Nick also plays a key role behind the scenes β contributing to the Nipper Committee and mentoring new Age Managers to help build confidence, capability and continuity across the program.
Thank you, Nick, for your tireless commitment to developing the next generation of patrolling members and surf sports athletes. Your impact on Trigg Island is truly valued π
