// The iconic red and yellow was front and centre as the first responders from the Bondi shooting late last year were recognised before the 5th Ashes Test in Sydney this morning.

Leah Trend from Bondi Surf Bathers Life Saving Club and Scott Gibbons from North Bondi surf club represented the many brave lifesavers who risked their lives responding to the tragic events on 14 December.

We’re extremely proud of our volunteers and it was moving to see them recognised on such a big stage alongside their emergency service counterparts.

// In 2025 won the 2025 SLSNSW Country Championships, securing their third consecutive win. The host club finished with 1399 points, ahead of .slsc (1237 pts) and (449 pts) but in less than a month we will head to . It’s neutral ground for the two top battling clubs so who will have the numbers and the firepower? It will be one to watch and we can’t wait.

// To all the amazing, giving, superstars that showed up and gave their time to keep the public safe the last few days of Christmas, thank you so much! ☺️ Hopefully a handful of dad jokes, surf club family laughs and some good dunks in the ocean kept you feeling fresh and ready.

Here’s a look around the grounds at some of our legend lifesavers from Christmas Day patrols.

// Jihad Dib MP has a couple of festive season beach safety tips for everyone after spending time with our surf lifesavers this year.
✨ Swim between the red and yellow flags
✨ Swim at a beach patrolled by lifesavers / lifeguards
✨ check for rip currents and ask lifesavers for advice
✨ Supervise children
✨ Never swim alone
✨ Swimming and alcohol don’t mix!

// Congratulations to the athletes selected to represent NSW at the Australian Interstate Ocean Championships at Maroubra early next year.

The team is gunning for seven overall point score victories in a row! What an effort that would be!

We're right behind you. Go NSW!

// We were at Maroubra SLSC this morning with the Minister for Emergency Services, Jihad Dib MP encouraging the public to be safe this holiday season.

Joined by volunteers from the local club, we relayed crucial safety messaging ahead of what is always a busy period for lifesavers.

More than 1,000 volunteers will patrol beaches across NSW on Christmas and Boxing Day, ensuring their communities recreate safely on the coast.
