A child may join Nippers as soon as he/she turns 6 years of age, but not before. Nippers are divided into 8 age groups. Age is determined as at midnight on 30th September each year. I.e. if a child is 10 years of age on or before 30th September, they will be in the under 11 age group for the entire season.

 Please note: Proof of age/Birth Certificate must be shown for all new children joining the Surf Club.  Participation outside your own age group is not possible unless approve by the Youth Director under special circumstances.  During registration you can scan and email your proof of age to This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it . 

Nippers program

Every parent wants their child to lead a happy, healthy and active youth. There is no better place for this than introducing your child to surf lifesaving and nippers.

Nippers is a junior program that introduces children aged 5 to 13 to surf lifesaving. It is a fun outdoors activity that grows a child’s confidence, teaches valuable life skills and knowledge. Every surf life saving club around Australia offers a nippers program, all with various styles and sizes.

The youth of today are the future of Surf Life Saving, and the Nippers pathway teaches lessons and skills allowing them to continue in lifesaving and sport as they grow older.

But it’s not hard work. We like to call it serious fun! Nippers is a great way for children to make friends, be active and enjoy the beach in a safe environment.

Nippers are Australian for life. Are your kids?

All Nippers U7 to U14 are required to complete water proficiency testing in order to take part in the Nipper program at Floreat Beach and also at carnivals. Please note the following requirements for your child’s age group.

The Junior Participation Skill Evaluation is a SLSA pre requisite for all Nippers. Children need to complete this prior to participating in the Nipper program at Floreat Beach. This proficiency will need to be completed in order to be able to continue in the program. The Junior Competition Skill Evaluation is optional but this needs to be successfully completed before competing at recognised carnivals.  The child can repeat this evaluation until successful. 

The club does not teach children to swim. We teach ocean swimming and surf safety skills to competent swimmers (for their age). If you have any concerns about your child’s ability, please do not hesitate to discuss the issue with the Age Manager. Emphasis in Nippers is directed towards teaching and instruction of water safety and basic surf life saving skills and having fun.

The Surf Life Saving Movement has created an amazing organization built on care for others, flavoured with an Australian sense of fun, health and character. Our forefathers and present trustees have forged a movement which continues to attract thousands of people each year to be part of this experience. 

Our continual challenge is to keep Surf Life Saving relevant to the times and to each generation whilst retaining those core values and experiences that have made it the icon it is today. The Floreat Surf Life Saving Club is on the crest of change and invites potential members and supporters to participate at a level they are comfortable with.

We invite you to contact us for more information on how you can be involved at a level you would be comfortable with. If you are aged seven to seventy, enjoy good health and the beach or you would just like to support what we do, it is essential that you register your interest so that we may contact you in the very near future.

What are you doing in winter on your Sunday mornings?

Sure you might say…. sleeping in, reading the paper or gardening….

Have you thought of joining the Floreat Freezers?

This group has been started by club members in order support open water swimming in the coolers months of year. The group meets on Sunday's at 10am at the FLSLSC rooms to undertake swims of varying distances depending upon ocean conditions and abilities of the swimmers. The group is primarily social and operates at 'their own risk' when swimming. Following the swim and a warm shower, the group then enjoys shared morning teas overlooking the Indian Ocean.

Girl’s boat crew entry

Our first boat carnival is on this week end at Scarborough and we are looking forward to getting in the water against other clubs. This year looks very competitive with nearly 15 girl’s crews competing from other clubs up and down the coast. So this year looks like shaping up to be a exciting and competitive time for girls boat rowing.

The Floreat Surf Life Saving has nearly 500 members spanning from 7 years of age to 70. These people come from all walks of life to train, patrol, compete and enjoy the family atmosphere that exists on one of the finest beaches on the west coast.

The Surf Club has a heritage of over 60 years but today it is a reflection of the energy of its current members which have established it as one of the most progressive in Western Australia. Our principle objective is to provide surf life saving services to the community and to educate and promote surf safety.

Why not come down one weekend and introduce yourself to a great bunch of people. You don't have to be a fantastic swimmer, all you need is enthusiasm.

It is desired that each age group has a nominated Age Manager whose role is to coach the children within their group. If you are new to Surf we do have coaches who can giude you through the process and there is plenty of SLSWA material to help you. Each Age Group will also require an Age Mangers Assistant to help with the coaching and also administrative tasks on distribution and organising their charges. We also have specialist coaches (swimming, board and beach running events) that will be on hand to help provide skills training for the Age Mangers and parents involved. We encourage all parents to become involved on the beach as we find the nippers really love their parents being there and joining in.

Due to the expense of competition equipment, the Club has set policies governing the use of such equipment. If members wish to use the clubs competition equipment you must see the appropriate appointed officer to obtain the use and a contract of use maybe arranged for the longer term.

The club will support any member, or members, who wish to take part in any interclub carnival. This is an area that the club is developing into with many of our younger members getting great results. Participation and enjoyment is the key.

There are many and varied areas within surf life saving that can be followed and there are many awards that can broaden the knowledge of the Surf Lifesaver.
