This involves each candidate to successfully complete the 20 hour program and be awarded their Surf Bronze which means they are a qualified guard.
Each member is taught all facets of lifesaving from first aid, tube rescues and being able to deal with people in the water should a patient grab hold of them. Not only practical attributes are required there is also a portion of theory that must be completed.
