Recent Nipper Competition Results
NSW State championships: 19-21 February. A dedicated team of Nippers went north to Swansea Belmont to represent the club in the State age championships and did so with pride. They all gave their best and were there to support each other in the various events. Our best result was a bronze medal in the Under 13 girls beach relay. To make any final at this level is an outstanding achievement when you consider there are over 50 clubs competing and all have their best on display. To pick up a medal is even more rare. Well done girls and congratulations to the entire team.

Nipper information
Bilgola Surf Life Saving Club has a busy and vibrant Nipper area. Our Junior club is run by a committee of dedicated, motivated people whose primary aim is to provide a fun and safe environment for kids to experience the surf, enjoy the benefits of teamwork and generally learn about surf skills and surf safety.
We have a structure that includes surf awareness, fun, teamwork and activities designed to teach the lifesavers of the future a healthy respect of the beach and their peers.
Nippers starts every Sunday at 9:00am sharp, so it’s better to arrive at 8:30am to find a park, enjoy some brekky from the BBQ and sort yourself for the day.
Be aware that we change the scheduled start time of Nippers to work around other events. Info can be found here at our calendar.
In the younger age groups, parents are requested to join the activities for support and assistance. You’d be surprised how much you’ll enjoy spending some quality outdoors time with your child (and thirty of their close friends) can be.
