5 Maroochydore Nippers 50th Anniversary to 2017 Ralph Devlin Life Governor, Maroochydore SLSC THE FIRST NIPPER CLUB IN QUEENSLAND IN THE SUMMER OF 1967 the local North Coast Surf Clubs were all-male, and destined to be so until women members were admitted to the movement, which we called The Association, in As we know, in 1967 our Region adopted the name, The Sunshine Coast, to replace the rather boring and uninspiring sobriquet North Coast. In late 1967, some Senior members of Maroochydore Surf Life Saving Club agreed to form a group for young people - young boys - to learn the skills of lifesaving. They called the new group the Cygnets. The Cygnets began their activities at the start of the Christmas School Holidays of children attended the first-ever signon day. One of the first Cygnets was Brett Williamson, then aged 12. He and older brother Kirk were too young to be lifesavers, but that Christmas they were taught resuscitation and how to retrieve a patient from the water. Brett later served as CEO of Surf Lifesaving Queensland and then CEO of Surf Life Saving Australia. Kirk served as Maroochydore Club Secretary in the late 1970s. Kirk and Brett are both still active in Maroochydore SLSC, 50 years later. The Official History of Queensland Surf Lifesaving, published in 1970, acknowledged the Maroochydore Cygnets as the first Nipper Club in Queensland, almost 2 years before the Queensland Nipper Association was formed. The admission of women and girls as Nippers and then patrolling Lifesavers has been the single most significant decision in the 100- year history of our great humanitarian endeavor. The newly-formed Maroochydore Cygnets were invited to march in the 1968 Queensland Surf Championships March Past, held at Kirra Beach on the Gold Coast. This display was recognition of the formation of the first Nipper Club in the modern era in Queensland. Other Nipper Clubs began to form in other parts of Queensland during the summer Season. The Queensland Junior ( Nipper ) Association was founded in the summer Season as a direct consequence of the formation of the Nipper Clubs. In these 50 years, 15 former Maroochydore Nippers became World Champions for Maroochydore SLSC in International Surf Life Saving competition. In these 50 years, 105 of our 211 Australian Championship Gold Medalists were Maroochydore Cygnets. Our most famous former Nipper is Clint Robinson OAM, 1992 Olympic Champion and holder of Olympic Gold, Silver and Bronze medals from 5 Olympics, What other Nipper Club could claim an Olympic Champion in their numbers? Most importantly of all, over our 50 years, many hundreds of Maroochydore Nippers have learned to save a life, commit to our Lifesaving ideal of volunteer Service, and become good citizens. Apart from the local hero, Clint Robinson OAM, Olympic Champion, a Nipper from 1980 to 1986, a future Champion joined the Nippers at Maroochydore much earlier, in about Mal Meninga, Australian Rugby League Captain and later Coach, won the Bronze Medal in the Under 13 Queensland Nipper Beach Sprint for Maroochydore at the 1974 Queensland Nipper Championships held in Mackay. Who knew? And how good were the boys that went Silver and Gold against Big (Little) Mal? And who are they? In Surf Sports, the Cygnets have been Champion Nipper Club of Queensland on eight occasions: 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 2012, 2015 and Take a bow all Nipper Mums and Dads and Coaches through the decades. Take a bow, all Queensland Nippers, born at Maroochydore 50 years ago. 3

6 President s Report Steve Wieland It gives me great pleasure to present the Annual Report for the season; a season in which we are proud to celebrate 50 years of Nippers here at Maroochydore Surf Life Saving Club. In this, our 102nd year, our members have once again upheld our Club traditions of community service, resulting in a loss of zero lives between the flags. One of the major highlights of the year is our competitive team s results at the Aussie Titles which were held on Scarborough Beach, WA. Our athletes made club history, bringing the U17 Australian Championship crown to Maroochydore SLSC for the first time. Such an achievement is the result of remarkable dedication. The combination of training commitments, patrol obligations, work and studies makes for a formidable work-load. It s a big ask, but one that our athletes take on willingly to compete in their chosen sport of lifesaving. The Club rejoices in the successes of our competitors at each carnival, and we Thank You for giving your time to represent Maroochydore as inspiringly as you have this past season. The recognition for these results, however, does not belong solely to our outstanding athletes. We must also congratulate both our coaching staff, headed by Nathan Grieg, and every other Member without whom our programs would not be possible. The Club s success extends further than the Australian titles, with Maroochydore competitors achieving fantastic results in a number of carnivals throughout the year; three of which were held right here on Maroochydore Beach. As per tradition, we as a Club hosted the Murphy Builders and Rebel Sports (formerly A-Mart) Carnivals during the year, as well as putting our hand-up to host the State Titles. None of these events would have been possible without our Volunteer Workforce. To all whom took time out of their busy schedules to volunteer in assistance of these events, I thank-you. Moving away from the beach, there is a great number of people whom have sacrificed their valuable time throughout the year to ensure we as a Club can continue to achieve our fantastic results within the competitive realm, as well as provide the high standard of community service for which we are known. To our dedicated Shimoda team, thank-you. The Maroochydore SLSC and the Shimoda LSC Exchange Program has enjoyed yet another great season. The life experience gained by our members whom get to participate in this cultural exchange is invaluable and I am happy to say that we will be sending 6 of our members again this coming season. The organisation required to maintain the success of this program is immense and to those members involved, I again offer my thanks. Our Surf Girl, Nicki Chapman. Nicki has put her heart and soul into running as our Surf Girl this season with numerous events raising not only the profile of our Club, but contributing greatly towards the funds needed by our Lifesaving and Surf Sports Programs. Our Grants Officer, Kim Musgrove, has continued his tireless work for yet another year resulting in a number of grants for the Club; the biggest of which from Fiona Simson (State Member) for a brand-new tractor. Thanks Kim for all your hard work throughout the year. I d also like to make special mention of our Director of Surf Life Saving, Ollie Hoelscher, who stepped up from the Deputy position with enthusiasm. Ollie, you and the Board of Surf Life Saving (along with all Patrolling Members) have done a great job to once again keep the beaches safe and promote our Club to the public. This achievement is made possible by our Members whom have worked hard over the past 12 months, continuing to work with our trainers and assessors in the pursuit of furthering their surf-skills education. This process would not be possible without the efforts of our Volunteer Club Trainers and Assessors. To all of you, I offer my thanks for your assistance in ensuring the continued maintenance of our patrolling member s proficiency. To all Board and Committee Members, the Club would not run without your tireless work behind the scenes. To be a member of any Board is both time consuming and challenging, however also deeply rewarding. Being able to assist in the steering of our fantastic organisation is something I personally view as a privilege and I would like to take this opportunity to encourage all members to pursue this line of engagement with our great club.

7 To our General Manager, Jack Orr, and the Life Saving Admin Staff, I thank-you all for another great season working together to support the volunteers; it has made it so much easier having the help of a committed team. To the Board Members of the Maroochy Supporters Club, Jack and his team as well as our loyal patrons; I say thank-you. Your combined efforts ensure that Maroochy Supporters Club remains the biggest sponsor of Maroochydore SLSC every year. On the notion of sponsorship, I d like to personally thank all of our sponsors with a special mention to Matt Murray and his team at the Cricks Sunshine Coast for their support throughout the year. Without the support of our sponsors, we would not be able to continue our work on the beach and within the community. As the season finishes I am proud to say that no lives were lost between the flags on Maroochydore and we kept up our 103-year-old tradition. I would like to thank all our Volunteer Patrolling Members for a great season.

9 Life Member Alan Vidler On 12 June 1985 Al Vidler joined Maroochydore from Currumbin Vikings SLSC, where he had been an Active Member since gaining his Bronze there in Al holds 31 SLSA Awards in Lifesaving skills. It quickly became obvious that Al was not only a valuable Patrolling Member. He brought great ski and board paddling skills to our Club. Although Masters competition did not achieve Australian Championships status until 1993, Alan was an enthusiastic contributor in our early KFC Masters carnivals held at Maroochydore from At the first All States Masters (non-championship) held on the Gold Coast in 1989 Al was part of a team of club legends who were runners up in the national Pointscore: John Rigby, Ian Jobson, Len Harris, Gordon Jeffery, Kerry Taylor, Peter Molineux, Mal Pratt and Alan Vidler. In 1996 and 1997 Seasons Al was involved with Nippers as a Manager and Member of the Board of Junior Activities, making a valuable contribution in coaching, managing and surf safety. Al has had a long association with our Sister Club Shimoda of Japan, dating from his first trip there in He was Liaison Officer for the Shimoda Exchange from 2014 to 2016, presenting a welcoming face and representing our Club with distinction. He was accorded the honour of being appointed Liaison Officer to the Japan National Team for the 2015 International Surf Rescue Challenge held on Maroochydore Beach in September As always he did an excellent job. Al and his wife Ingrid have opened their family home on countless occasions to travelling Lifesavers. Thank you Ingrid for your unwavering support for Alan s distinguished career in Surf Lifesaving. Al served as a Member of the Board of Lifesaving and as Clubhouse Director for several seasons in the same period. Then came a lengthy period as a Member of the Board of Surf Sports as Master s Liaison Officer. He was awarded the Alex Devlin Memorial Trophy for Most Outstanding Masters Competitor in 2004 after a Gold-Silver-Bronze haul at Aussies in He also won an Aussies Masters Single Ski Championship in 2006 and was a podium finisher in Ski and Board disciplines at many Aussies Masters. After 15 seasons at Currumbin and 32 Seasons at Maroochydore Al Vidler is a proud lifesaver who has given exceptional and sustained service. He is worthy of election as Maroochydore s 82nd Life Member. 7

10 Life Member Tim Ryan Tim Ryan joined Maroochydore SLSC on 23 November 1997, gaining his Bronze Medallion on 13 December Tim holds 48 SLSA Awards for Lifesaving skills. Tim served a number of seasons as Patrol Vice Captain between 1998 and Apart from his impressive career as a Patrolling Member, Tim surfaced as Deputy Chairman of Junior Activities in the 2001 and 2002 seasons, where he also served as Team Manager. In 2002 Tim was a member of the Most Efficient Patrol, winning the Terry Lane Memorial Trophy. In the same year he was awarded the Bronze Certificate of Recognition in the International Year of the Volunteer. In 2003 Tim ran for the Bronze again, this time in the Branch Masters 170 years Beach Relay - mercifully without sustaining one of those nasty leg injuries that old guys get when they run in beach relays. In 2005 Tim was awarded the Brian Davey Shield for Best Senior Club Person. Tim was our Branch-appointed Club Supervisor , after which he was Deputy President to Mike Dwyer for two seasons before being elected to the Presidency. Incidentally, Tim holds an award for bravery as a result of his heroic attempt to save a young child who was swept into a flooded suburban drain. He is also co-founder of the Morcombe Foundation and a major participant currently in CrimeStoppers. His community involvements are many. Tim was elected President of Maroochydore SLSC in June To be a President of our great Club is an honour in itself, but what Tim did with that opportunity is what marks him out as a worthy Life Member: Firstly, as President of the Supporters Club, Tim maintained its positive trajectory. Secondly, in October 2010 Tim formed a unique 3-Club consortium of bidders to win back the Australian Surf Life Saving Championships for the Sunshine Coast after an absence of 37 years. The event in 2016 would mark the Centenary of our Club and of Surf Life Saving on the Sunshine Coast. With the prospect of again hosting the Aussies in 2021, this will go down as Tim s enduring legacy. Tim is Chair of the 2021 Aussies bid. Thirdly, as the Surf Club President, Tim enhanced our Club s reputation in our community as a rescue-ready organisation, primed to help out in times of natural disaster. In January 2011 Tim led a contingent of 120 Club and Community Members to a clean-up in Ipswich after the massive floods. Three busloads of volunteers worked in 37 degree heat to restore homes and to restore hope. Local State MPs Fiona Simpson and Peter Wellington were in the group. This was typical of Tim s community focus. Fourthly, Tim s leadership at the time of the death of Matty Barclay on 28 March 2012 will be remembered as an outstanding feat of leadership. With no rule book to guide him for such tragedies, Tim led from the front, from the moment the news broke to the day of Matty s funeral and beyond. Tim served four years as President, standing down in June His involvement from that time was as a significant figure in our 2016 Aussies and now looking forward to getting the nod for Tim enjoys the respect of the other two host clubs and of SLSA President Graham Ford and his Team - so he is playing an important role for our Club going into the future. Tim s wife Sally was a staunch ally during those dark days and throughout Tim s journey in Surf Life Saving. Tim left his mark on our Surf Club and is a worthy candidate for election as our 83rd Life Member. 8

11 Life Member Gary Wilkie Gary Wilkie joined Maroochydore SLSC on 10 August 2000 and gained his Bronze Medallion on 8 October He is one of our most highly-qualified Lifesavers, having gained a staggering 78 SLSA Awards for Lifesaving skills over the past 17 years. He is a Level 2 Trainer and Assessor and a Level 2 Surf Sports Official. Gary is held in awe and respect throughout the official channels of Australian, Queensland and Sunshine Coast Associations. Gary is also one of our most awarded lifesavers: Terry Lane Memorial - Most Efficient Patrol Brian Davey Shield - Best Senior Club Person Terry Lane Memorial Trophy - Most Efficient Patrol (as Captain) Gary had a slack year, no prizes! Tony Cruice Shield - Most Outstanding Male Member Jeanette Buckham Trophy - Best Patrol Captain Tony Cruice Shield Tony Cruice Shield Another slack year, pull your socks up Gary! JFH Fred Murray Memorial Trophy - Best Masters Club Person. Gary was selected to visit Shimoda in 2002 and has remained a strong supporter of our Sister Club relationship. Gary contributed many seasons as a fine Patrol Captain and gained his 10 year Patrol Award in From 2010 to 2015 Gary was Branch IRB Surf Sports Officer. He made a memorable contribution all the way to Aussies level, becoming a trusted and valuable member of SLSA s Aussies team. He and Todd Sweeney played a crucial IRB role in the 2010 Saxon Bird tragedy at Aussies. Gary took time out to actually get in the water and in 2003 won Gold in the Branch 130 year Surf Teams - say what??!? In August 2014, Gary, together with current President Steve Wieland and brand-new Bronzo Justin Fay, received an Award of Excellence from Surf Life Saving Queensland for their life-and-death rescue of several patients on Christmas Day Gary was our IRB driver on that day. The entire team prevented major drownings on our beach by their vigilance and their skill. Gary is still vitally involved in our Club, serving on the Board of Surf Sports in the seasons and the Board of Surf Lifesaving He has also continued as a Surf Sports Official. Gary s wife Tina has been an enormous support to her husband s outstanding career in Surf Life Saving. Gary Wilkie is an eminently qualified candidate for election as Maroochydore s 84th Life Member. 9

12 Board of Administration and Membership Report Narelle Souter, Director Another season has closed, and the Club celebrates the contributions and achievements of its membership in this Annual Report. Maroochydore SLSC is a vibrant, diverse organisation which offers to its volunteer Members many opportunities to develop personally, competitively and professionally. For the season the Club s membership comprised: Junior Activity (5-13yrs) 286 Associate 188 Probationary 0 Cadets (13-15yrs) 63 Active (15-18yrs) 43 Active (18yrs+) 173 Award 45 Reserve Active 2 Long Service 105 Past Active 2 Life Members 62 Leave/Restricted 2 Gym 44 Honorary Vice Presidents 140 Trendlines indicate that Cadet, Active years and Active 18+ Memberships have improved in the last 4 years. Award Memberships nearly doubled this season from 24 to 45; primarily due to an increase of Radio Officers. Reserve Active and Past Active Membership has remained steady, though Long Service Membership increased by 20 Members. The number of Members eligible to patrol has grown from 265 to 324 since the season to end of season. Junior Activities Membership increased by 23 in the season. However, Associate Membership (parents) decreased by 64, down from 252 last year to 186 at April Transfers IN Transfers OUT Awards processed during the season totalled Service Awards 39 ATV Operator Induction 45 Bronze Medallion 35 SRC 9 IRB Crew 553 Nipper Preliminary & Competition Skills Evaluations 271 Nipper Surf Awards 6 QLD Observers 7 QLD Tractor Induction 5 Radio Operator Certificate 33 Resus 7 YEP Awards 2 Radio Assessor/Trainer 1248 Skills Maintenance The current Board of Administration sat down in 2014 and set a 3 to 5-year program of activities aimed to better recognise our members, offer opportunity and inclusivity to all members no matter what their chosen pursuit at the Club, improve retention and strengthen links with other Club sections. Big ask! The Board invited Visitors to come along regularly and give their input on their section; plus help us get the many items on our wish list up and running. I m pleased to say we ve ticked off a few and had some positive results. Again, regular Youth events were held with good Youth attendance, participation of our Youth at Branch, SLSQ and SLSA camps and development programs increased and 2 Youth attained YEP Gold Status and 1 attained Silver Status - a great effort. As well as sending 10 Junior Activity Members to Camp Commando, the Club endorsed 4 Youth to attend the 2018 Breaka Camp and gave Ben Colston the opportunity to represent Maroochydore at the inaugural Branch EduK8 Program. EduK8 offers young members accelerated training in key awards over 1 season. Ben s report on page 12 supports that he was able to achieve a lot in a short time and made some great friends at other clubs. Two new Club-based programs have been launched. With the help of the BOSS members Toni Pettigrew [U15-17 Liaison Officer] and Nikki Chapman, and with the support of the Board of Junior Activities the Cadet Mentor Program was initiated. The Program aims to form a network which supports our younger members as they transition from JA up into Cadet and Active Lifesaver roles. It is another example of Youth leading Youth. Positive feedback about the Cadet Program came from all involved. Next season it is planned to add activities to the Program to broaden the work carried out by the Cadet Mentor network and have the Mentors give extra support to Age Managers. The second Program introduced seeks to advance participation in Surf Rescue Championship events. It will send selected competitors to Cairns to experience lifesaving in the Tropical North and learn more about marine envenomation and its treatment. The first trip is planned for July / August I would like to acknowledge the dedication of Ben Ellwood to his role of Youth Development Officer for the last 3 years. Ben is stepping down and Jonty Dodson has agreed to take on the role. The Board will be re-nominating, so they can support Jonty in his first season. My sincerest thanks to all BoAM Officers and Visitors who have helped this season. You all do a magnificent job for the Club. Special mention to Kirk Williamson, who has spent many hours gathering the data to support Member Recognition nominations and Service Awards. 10

13 Behind the scene improvements to how the Club provides its member services are being identified and implemented. In the last month the Club s telephone system has been replaced, the Reception cash register upgrade to enable Reception Staff to receipt common Club Members purchases [clothing, membership fees, club events, purchase training books] at any time. Planning has started to replace the Gym FOB system, and key access to the Sixth Avenue side gate, Training Room and Storage Area with the same FOB system used in the Surf Club areas. Redevelopment of the Club website is on the agenda for season; a long overdue project. Capturing the highlights of each season as reported in the Annual Report is a considerable task consuming many hours of work. Collecting photos starts at season beginning, and then the adding the content and reports fast-tracks after Aussies end. Many thanks to every Club Member who contributed a report as it gives a unique insight into their area of club activity. Special thanks to Jodie, Lauren and Chelsea who coordinate getting all photos and content together in a format ready for the printers. Each year the Report gets easier to pull together and it s a credit to all involved. The Club did not nominate to be part of this year s SLSQ annual collection week. The decision was based on falling participation by our members and the increased demands placed on a few members to organise and run the week. Certainly, the Club wants to do the collection later this year and Expressions of Interest for a Coordinator will be called for at the AGM. If you have an interest, then put your hand up. The tradition of our Club s Junior Captains laying a wreath at the RSL s Cotton Tree Park ANZAC Day Celebrations continues. Jacob Bristow and Matilda Jarrott joined the official parties and capably represented our club. Parents of our Junior Captains often tell me that the occasion is a moving and thought-provoking morning for their children, and it is a special experience for them to be part of it. Member feedback on the draft Constitution was sought in February this year. I very much thank those Members who made the effort to respond and give their views. Submissions were studied and responded to. Where possible the feedback received has been included in the Constitution. Items which require Council approve have been put on an Agenda for further discussion. The final touches to the draft are being done now, and it is expected the document will be presented to Council in June/July for final comment. Following that a Special Meeting will be called to seek Council endorsement. My thanks to Glynn Topfer who has worked with me over the last season to get the Constitution ready for presentation. I would like to thank every single person who gives their time to make Maroochydore a remarkable club; inclusive of the Board of Management and all Office Bearers, our Summer Surf Girl entrant, Age Managers, Officials, Trainers, Assessors, Patrol Members, Coaches, Competitors, Water Safety parents, Shimoda Exchange team, Canteen helpers and Social Organisers as well as paid Lifesaving and Supporters Club staff for your dedication to the Black Swan over the last 12 months. You do your Club proud. Eduk8 Program - Ben Colston The Sunshine Coast Branch ran the inaugural Eduk8 Program during this season and I was lucky enough to take part. The program gave me the opportunity to complete a number of qualifications/awards with a group of lifesavers from other Branch Clubs plus the opportunity to get a behind the scenes look at life saving operations. The program included my First Aid Certificate, Advanced Resus Certification, Age Manager Certification and was to include my IRC Crew Award but as happens when you take part in something weather dependant, it was unfortunately cancelled. Adding to my skill set was a great opportunity and I look forward to the opportunity to using my new skills. The best part however was meeting other likeminded young lifesavers from other clubs. I would sincerely like to thank the Club for the opportunity to take part and would encourage any applicable club members to take part in the future. VALE Noelene Bergqvist Max Davis BM Lionel Michael Hogue Rodney Hultgren BM Dean Mercer Graeme Neylan Our condolences to the families of any other member we have missed. 11

14 Youth Development Report Ben Ellwood The Youth Program (YEP) supported by the Club and at SLS Branch and State Levels provides our Youth Members with the opportunities to develop their Surf Lifesaving, Leadership and Social Skills. The Clubs YEP Program this season has successfully hosted monthly Club activities and events for our Members, including a day at the Aqua Fun Park, and movie nights. Participation at YEP events feed into a surf cred reward system and credits were accrued for attendance at Patrols, Training and Personal Development Programs. A big congratulation this season to Kalani and Kiara Kliese, and Morgan Williams who have made tremendous efforts towards their Surf Lifesaving Development. Other Youth Programs hosted by Branch during the season like Camp Commando also continue to be popular with our Club s Youth Members. At the Eduk8 Training Course this season Ben Colston gained several awards over the period of the year with a group of youth who participated from other Clubs. A new program supported this year was the Pulse Advanced Lifesaving Program that was held on our beach and at our Club facilities. Aaron Penfold and Cody Surawski participated in the three-day seminar/training program designed to push our everyday Lifesavers that little bit further in the crisis management area. Thank you to all of the Club s Youth Members who represented us at these external events. I have thoroughly enjoyed three years now as the Youth Development Officer and I could not have done it without the support of the BOMA or our fantastic Youth Members, thank you all for the opportunity. Stretch & Core Class Report Katrina Egan We had another great year of stretching and strengthening at our Wednesday late afternoon classes. The group has become based around a strong loyal bunch who just can t get enough. In fact, they even have another go most Saturday mornings with Andy Walpole. The participants are mostly mature age Club Members who still love being part of the club, and enjoy this session that includes stretching, mobility, balance and strength all the things we need! The class caters for all abilities and manages to work around aches and pains and injuries. We love also having the Surf Sports athletes join us when they are either injured or just need some low-key activities. It is often quite surprising how well our 50 s plus members blow the kids away in the planks. A strong core and good balance are the hallmarks of every discipline and I encourage all Club Members to come and join us. Group sizes are mostly 8-10 unless Andy bumps it up with International couch surfers who bring some interesting stories! Mostly we are upstairs or in the park as weather permits. All Members are welcome to come and join us! Stretch class is the envy of many other clubs and individuals. Where else do clubs provide an experienced Physio that run multifactorial exercise class overlooking our beautiful beach at no cost to members, you are crazy if you re not involved! 12

15 Mal Pratt Youth Development Foundation Shane Bridley, Foundation Chairman One of the main focuses of the Foundation for the season was to ensure our nominated fundraiser for the year would generate sufficient funds to cover the costs of the growing number of beneficiaries now benefiting from the Foundation. The inaugural Murray & Associates sponsored the Mal Pratt Youth Development Foundation of Maroochydore SLSC Annual Mid Year Golf Day, held during August 2017 was an outstanding success. The event lived up to the pre-event hype as another of the Club s must attend community events on the Sunshine Coast and raised valuable funds for the Foundation. A big thank you to Club Marketing Manager Jodie Crowther for her support in bringing the day together, to Foundation committee member Nick Clatworthy for his huge contribution in attracting a full field of Event and Hole Sponsors for the day, along with the support of additional committee member Peter Aiken and club stalwart Peter Dun, in ensuring the feature holes were also a big success on the day. It was nice also to have the old master Michael Rogan back on stage doing his thing with raffles and presentations on the day. Foundation benefactor Mal Pratt generously matched our profits on the day with a donation to the Foundation s Principal Holding, which will obviously assist the Foundation moving forward. Eleven interested potential Foundation beneficiaries referred by The Smith Family, attended the information Afternoon Tea in early August, and by the commencement of season 2017/2018 we had nine new beneficiaries undertaking swim training. As the season progressed, those numbers have dwindled down to six new beneficiaries who have committed to on going swim training with a view to joining the Maroochydore SLSC Junior Activities Program in Season 2018/2019. An additional six Club Members from previous seasons continued with their involvement during the season, and two of those numbers obtained their Bronze Medallion and commenced as Patrolling Members after a number of seasons of swim training and involvement with the Junior Activities Program. Many thanks to the Age Managers/ Coaches etc from Junior Activities, along with Chief Training Officer Brad Kildey for your support and encouragement of the young club members along their journey. The Foundation continues to provide valuable support for the disadvantaged youth of the community, who in turn are now giving back to the community through their involvement as Patrolling Members of Maroochydore SLSC. 13

16 General Manager s Report Jack Orr It is my privilege as General Manager of Maroochydore Surf Life Saving Club to deliver this report in relation to the operational goings-on which have taken place over the past 12 months. To preface, it must be recognised that the Sunshine Coast can be described as one of the most competitive hospitality environments within Australia. With the continued expansion of the Ocean Street precinct, a high concentration of licenced venues and the recent re-development of the Mooloolaba Wharf area; patrons are spoilt for choice more than ever. Couple this ultra-competitive environment with the regions inherent dependence on tourism-trends, and the challenges imposed upon local clubs such as ours become clear. It is the presence of these challenges that re-enforce the fact that, to remain competitive, areas of operational weakness must be identified, corrected and the resultant positive change embraced. This is a concept that our committee members have been extremely mindful of which has, as a result, allowed for a year filled with system upgrades and positive procedural change. Please find below a summarised listing of some of our Club s achievements from the 2017/2018 period. The selection and implementation of a new allencompassing HR management system; Timetarget. The purpose of this system was to move away from manual, labour intensive processes in favour of an independent, digital solution featuring; o Accurate, independent time tracking completed o through a digital finger-scanning system. The abolishment of paper timesheets, therefore limiting the possibility of human error. o Streamlining of payroll procedures via eliminating the necessity of manual data entry. o In-depth reporting capabilities in relation to labour forecasting as a result of Timetarget s ability to integrate with our POS system. After having the COMMANDER phone system for well over a decade, we have now completed the conversion to an NBN-based VOIP system. This new phone system allows us a variety of features including; o The ability to have a virtual receptionist ( Press 1 for Lifesaving, Press 2 for etc ) o Missed call tracking and message bank capabilities. o Portable handsets within the club. o Standardised call forwarding and holding procedures. o Future-proofing against Tesltra copper-line reduction. Focusing on the concept of improving our customer integration, we sourced and implemented the Max-e Draw system which, in combination with Maxconnect, has allowed us to reach a new level of targeted marketing. o This system allows us to create targeted advertising campaigns based on any number of behavioural or demographic data points. In collaboration with UBET, we have completed a re-fit of the main-bar and UBET component of the venue which has brought us in-line with industry standards. Early in the 2017/2018 season we were successful in the procurement of a new courtesy vehicle, therefore allowing the expansion of our courtesy-service radius to include high density residential areas such as Bli Bli and Parklakes. With the invaluable assistance of our Grants Officer, Kim Musgrove, the club has also been successful in the procurement of locker facilities which will be available to members in the coming season as well as a tractor to assist with beach tasks. Throughout the later part of the season the supporters club sponsored an extensive amount of work to be completed on the dorms and senior bathrooms area. Upgrades include; o The installation of extraction fans into both bathrooms. o Extensive re-plastering and painting throughout the area. o Replacement of the existing aged airconditioning units. o Replacement of the mattresses and bedding within both dorms It is imperative that any management group remains aware of community perception and how it deviates from that which is desired by the organisation. In our case, we re a community club; an all-inclusive, familyfriendly venue. The maintenance of this organizationprofile is an ongoing task which resulted in a number of actions throughout the season including; o The relaxing of a number of dress-code policies (singlets, rubber thongs etc). o The introduction of table service into our restaurant. o The re-development of our Kids Room. This shifted the focus of the area onto free to play games which led to the introduction of our Gamezone bank (4 playstations), wall-mounted tablet devices and a seated arcade machine all of which can be utilized free of charge. 14

17 In summary, it s been a big year for Maroochydore Surf Club. The early results of our changes have already fruited recognition as evidenced by our recent results at the 2018 Clubs Queensland Awards for Excellence which draws upon clubs of all forms (Surf Clubs, RSL, Leagues Clubs etc) across the entire state. Best Gaming Venue Onsite inspection score of 100% Best Dining (Largest category in the competition) 5th Overall Best Surf Life Saving Supporters Club 3rd Overall Best Young Manager of the Year 2nd Overall To close, I d like to take this opportunity to recognise a number of key contributors without whom the Maroochydore Surf Club would not be possible. Firstly, our Committee Members, Life Members and Life Governors. The hard work put in by these dedicated members is remarkable and surely not made any easier by a new General Manager with a seemingly never-ending wishlist of upgrades and renovations! Second, the fantastic staff whom have maintained an open outlook and positive attitude throughout a time of highvolatility within the business. Their hard-work, support and willingness to embrace change has been a testament to the professionalism of our team. Third, our Sponsors. Without the generous contributions of our Sponsors, we as a club would not be in a position to maintain the high standard of vital work performed both on the beach and in our community. Last but certainly not least, our Members; both Active and Social. Without the Volunteer efforts by the members of this club and our Supporters on level one, the Maroochydore Surf Club would not be what it is today. Once again, thank-you to everyone for a fantastic year; here s to another great season. 15

18 Board of Surf Lifesaving Report Oliver Hoelscher, Director Well the season is at a close for Maroochydore and the season has yet again proven itself a busy one with 25 rescues performed, 2413v preventative actions and a total of hours given by Maroochydore Members on our beach! I came into this role quite hastily at the start of the year due to unforeseen leave affecting Scott Steele. I d like to recognise the hard work Scott had put into this role. Many of the changes implemented by Scott have continued on past his time as Director such as all-day patrols, this has formed a strong part of his legacy. This role has not been without its difficulties, and I would like to thank the Board of Lifesaving for their support. Nikki Chapman - Deputy Director, Steve Ellwood Life Member, Peter Lucas Ordinary Member, Brad Kildey Chief Training Officer, Drew Moles - IRB Captain, Phil Lyons - First Aid Officer, Graham Davies Radio Officer, Jason Childs Health and Safety and Mike Dwyer as Club Supervisor. All of the crew were happy to give above what was required in an effort to improve the quality of lifesaving services delivered on our beach this season. Nikki Chapman saw a need and was happy to step into the role mid-season as Deputy and has continued to lead the first aid provision conducted on Ocean Street. For most of these nights it is fairly manageable, however it is known ambulance transfers have occurred from our work down there and effective management of critical patients was recorded by our members. I d like to pay a special thanks to those who have generously gone above to offer their services on Ocean Street. I would like to pay a special recognition to Phil Lyons who is now in his tenth season as Maroochydore s First Aid Officer. Phil has always had the gear operational and in top working order. Phil often leads the team of first aid personnel across the carnivals at Maroochydore. This role is crucial in our lifesaving mission and we recognise Phil for his contribution. The BOLS and I have made an effort to host some additional courses targeted to skill, like Silver Medallion Patrol Captain Awards. IRB training is still something that we are struggling with but continue to work with Branch in an attempt to facilitate further courses. A major thanks must go to those who lead the teams on the weekend Maroochydore s Patrol Captains. Our PC s make a special effort to lead our teams in what can only be described as sketchy situations at times. To all the Volunteer Members, THANK YOU! for attending your patrols and striving towards preserving life in our bathing reserve. Thanks to those who have supported and those who have contributed to making stronger patrols. Enjoy your off season, and I ll see you in the summer! 16

19 Chief Training Officer s Report Brad Kildey With the completion of another busy season, we ve again introduced many fresh faces to our club as well as another large group of U14 s upskilling to become SRC Patrolling Members. We have completed the usual 3 Bronze courses for the season, the September holiday SRC squad and Narelle Souter also ran a holiday SRC to Bronze upgrade course for our Cadet Members. We also hosted and outsourced several Emergency Care courses. There have been many new awards issued during the season, a combination of new members to the club and existing members upgrading and furthering their life saving skills. As a trainer and/or assessor, it s always extremely rewarding to see people you have trained putting their skills to work on our beaches and in everyday life. I applaud everyone who can give up their time to donate such an integral skill to our community. After much pushing again from our Sunshine Coast Branch CTO s, we have started to see professionally published training material issued by SLSQ for our SRC, IRB & Emergency Care courses with material for the Bronze Medallion and other courses filtering through during next season. The ease of use and professional approach this material has provided is certainly a welcome step and our support at SLSQ need to be commended for this. With the 2018/19 season fast approaching, as always, planning and scheduling has begun on several areas including the Trainers, Assessors and Facilitators Proficiency, Junior Awards and potential new courses that may be offered to our members, and as always, planning for our numerous Club Skills SRC SEPTEMBER 2017 Maintenance days of which I would love to say that they are always a favourite! With the completion of my 5th year in this role, I am always grateful to our Trainers, Assessors, Water Safety and Club Administration Staff who have contributed their time and expertise throughout the season, you are the gateway to our Volunteer Surf Life Savers and Surf Sports competitors. IRB Captain s Report Drew Moles Season is now behind us, another successful year on our beach with zero lives lost between the flags. Well done to all the IRB Drivers and Crewies for being an integral part of keeping Maroochydore Beach fatality free this season. Moving forward for the season I would like this to increase and see more of our patrolling members gaining these awards. Our biggest challenge in the past season was meeting IRB Crew and Driver requirements and this remains my greatest concern for season We, as a club have been communicating this concern with Sunshine Coast Branch and hope to work closely with them to gain a positive outcome. It actually is a lot of fun on patrol in an IRB roving up and down our beaches being in the duck! Helping out at carnivals on IRB Water Safety can also be rewarding and a great way to meet people from other clubs. Give it a thought and sign up for the next IRBC or SMIRBD Course. I would like to thank the Maroochydore SLSC Administration for their support. In particular I would like to thank Oliver Hoelscher for his support during the season and stepping up to the position of Director of Lifesaving at short notice. Ollie you are a legend and you have been absolutely fantastic in this position. 17

21 Radio Officer s Report Graham Davies Firstly, thanks to Noel Furmage for his stewardship of the Radio Operators and equipment over the past seasons. I would also like to thank Noel for his assistance in the handover to myself as Radio Officer, and for his ongoing assistance since...it has been invaluable! The equipment is working well, and thanks to all the Operators who make sure the radios are maintained at the end of the Patrols each day. This will ensure that the radios will last. The LIMSOC ipad has been working well, with all Operators confident with its use. During the off-season, the tower has had a few upgrades with new, lighter shutters installed (much easier to raise and lower) and the windows had their rollers replaced. These improvements are greatly appreciated. This season we lost a couple of long-serving operators. John Rankin (22 years), and Tracy Reeves (12 years). Noel has since visited John and presented him with a Certificate for his service. We have welcomed some new Operators this season as well. Bryce Whittaker and Dave Whittaker (Patrol 1), and Wes Wright (Patrol 3). Amber Baker and Uwe Sinn completed their Radio Awards during the off-season and have started working in the tower this season. Both Amber and Meryl Todd have also joined Surfcom as operators. The sign for Volunteer Radio Operators in the window is working, and we have had three enquiries for Radio Operators in the last few weeks, unfortunately it has been too late in the season for them to start. We have a great team in the Tower and as the new Radio Officer, I would like to thank everyone for their efforts this season. Thanks also to Ollie and the Board of Lifesaving for their support. The Athol Nixon Memorial Trophy (Radio Operator of the Year) After some deliberation and consultation with Noel, the Athol Nixon Memorial Trophy has been awarded to Meryl Todd. Meryl has attended all allocated patrols, and has stepped in to help on other occasions and taken on an extra role with Surfcom as an operator. Congratulations to Meryl and thanks for your effort this season. I took over the role of Gear Steward in October 2017, after Michelle Burnett had accepted a permanent position at Sunshine Beach Surf Club and I would like to sincerely thank Michelle for leaving the gear in such good condition, which has made my job relatively easy. Both the Red and Yellow ATV s had a problem with jerky take off s, so my first task was to work on getting those rectified. Sunstate Motor Cycles of Maroochydore found the drive belts on both machines were excessively worn and had teeth missing which was causing the problem. Two new drive belts were fitted and both machines are now functioning particularly well with hopefully a number of seasons left on both of them. Our ATV s are not really designed to be pulling heavy Arena s and Surf Boats up and down the soft sand, and this has contributed to the excessive wear on the drive belts. I am very pleased to learn that the Club is purchasing a new Kubota Tractor for this purpose and that will certainly ease the pressure on the small machines. I would like to thank Kim Musgrove and our local MP Fiona Simpson for obtaining Gear Steward s Report Noel Furmage the grant and making the purchase of this valuable asset a reality. Other projects undertaken during this season included; fitting of new struts to the arena, purchasing an aluminum carry-all that drops over an IRB trailer, recarpeting the IRB trailer skids to protect the IRB s, and replacing the foam protection on the rescue board racks on each of the beach towers. I would like to thank all patrolling members for their support, and for taking such great care of our extensive range of equipment. A particular mention must go to David Shearer a Nipper parent who has volunteered to undertake running repairs to our Rescue Boards and has restored a number of boards back to the former glory. Thank you David. I would like to also thank Drew Moles, whose knowledge and guidance has been invaluable in supporting me on this learning curve. Lauren and Chelsea in the office for their support during the season, and Ollie Hoelscher and the entire Board of Lifesaving, thanks for your support during the year. 19

22 First Aid Officer s Report Phil Lyons I d like to acknowledge the diligence in maintaining the First Aid equipment throughout the season and I encourage all Members to keep up the good work. As we all know, taking care of and the checking of our resuscitation equipment prior to commencing your patrol ensures that when a life-threatening emergency occurs, we are prepared to provide the best possible chance of a patient s survival. A big thank you must go to all the Volunteers who helped out in First Aid at the Murphy Homes, and Junior Carnivals; they all were a great success, and this was largely due to the volunteers who gave up their time to assist, you do a great service to our Club. Our beach was one of the venues for the QLD State Surf Lifesaving Titles in March. Over the three days First Aid Volunteers were provided from a number of Clubs. Our Club was required to provide two Volunteers for two days, Amanda and Dale Massie put their hands up for both days, my thanks to you both. In closing, I d like to take this opportunity to thank my fellow Board of Life Saving members, for their dedication and support, also a big thanks to our Administration Staff. I wish you all a safe and happy off-season and look forward to seeing you on the beach. Wow, another season cooked and cleaned and what a season it was in the Kiosk. There was lots of hard work, fun, laughter (not too many tears and tantrums) and plenty of willing Volunteers when the call out were made. For that I say a massive thank you to all who volunteered their time this season (too many to mention), without the volunteers we would have had no Kiosk service, meaning no additional funds raised for extra equipment and not to mention many hungry little (and big) Nippers on Sunday mornings. However, I am going to take this opportunity to thank just a few very special volunteers who have made my life so much easier running the kiosk week in week out and on carnivals weekends. For that matter at ANY kiosk events Nicky Flynn, Bob Orr and Randal Hardy have been invaluable. Oh, and I can t forget the man of many talents Andrew Patrick who stepped into my apron for the Senior States and by all accounts did a bloody awesome job in my absence - you re a legend. Our Kiosk windows were open for Nipper Sundays and 3 carnivals this season not to mention Club Breakfasts and Nipper Breakup events, all of which were hugely successful in raising additional funds. 20 Kiosk & Kitchen Helen Patrick It would be remiss of me not to mention the boost to those funds in part was thanks to the Supporters Club for donating our very own coffee machine, a life saver in its own right. Thanks also to our much-loved Barista Ashley Moore. To that end, I hope you will all drop by the kiosk next season to volunteer some time and enjoy our tasty offerings where we can continue to raise funds for Surf Sports.

Dale Massie had been out on his new surf ski, doing insand-outs near the surf club building. Warren Bluey Lee launched his own ski and set about the daunting task of getting through the wide break and out the back. Bluey made several unsuccessful attempts at penetrating the break, all the while being pushed north by the sweep. Upon coming to shore during his own workout, Dale saw Bluey still trying to get out the back, but by now he was, to Dale s observation, alarmingly close to the river mouth on an outgoing low tide. Dale made the fateful decision to paddle down to assess the situation and assist if needed. By the time he got there, Bluey was in the water and clearly needed assistance. Dale s craft itself was in the river mouth. He paddled alongside Bluey and yelled at him to hold on to the back of his (Dale s) Ski. Dale had made the assessment that the only way to get to relative safety was to paddle both of them through the last remaining waves, get out the back and assess the situation. The way Dale told it, he and Bluey were nailed by the last big wave in the set. Dale s ski was destroyed by the impact. Bluey s Ski was long gone - they were now both in the water, in the river mouth, without a flotation device. Dale s assessment soon was that their situation was dire. He could get himself to shore, but he had to look after Bluey. This was the first point at which Dale feared for his own life and that of his patient. Meanwhile another Masters ski paddler and former Boatie, Paul O Brien, arrived at the clubhouse and assessed the conditions for his paddle. As he looked seawards, he spied the action unfolding near the river mouth. Paul immediately saw the danger that both fellow-members were in. He too began to assess the available means of rescue. In another fateful twist, Nipper Chairman Kirk Jarrott - former Australian Champion on Ski and Board - appeared beside him, asking what was going on. After a brief discussion between O Brien and Jarrott about the poor likelihood of success from launching the IRB - which would use up precious time - Kirk, the younger of the two men by a considerable margin - selflessly grabbed a rescue board and set out to rescue both members. Out at sea, Dale had been in fear of his and Bluey s life for what seemed to him to be about 15 minutes. The hopelessness of their situation was in danger of overwhelming him, but he remained as calm as he could, thinking about ways in which they could both get to shore in the raging sea. Bluey appeared to be exhausted and Dale began wondering when his own limits of endurance would be reached. Then Kirk appeared, punching through the massive waves on the board. He grabbed Bluey and set off for the shore. Profoundly relieved, without the responsibility of his patient, Dale was also able to make his way to shore. A possible single fatality was avoided by the selfless courage and skill of Dale Massie; an almost certain double fatality, in a dangerous river mouth, was averted by the quick thinking, skill and courage of Kirk Jarrott. Dale Massie and Kirk Jarrott carried out the rescue in the very best Lifesaving traditions. They have the congratulations and thanks of their fellow members. 23

27 Board of Surf Sports Report Steve Ellwood, Director This year`s Aussie`s has made up for last year s disappointment after Cyclone Debbie. Maroochydore performed astoundingly, winning for the first time the U17 Aussie Title Point score and coming a creditable 4th overall toppling age-old rivals Alexandra Headlands and Currumbin. My highlights were watching our youth make us all proud, Ruben Zikarsky winning the U17 Champion Lifesaver his first year competing in this event, also winning the State and Branch. Tiarnee Massie winning the U17 Surf Race sprinting up the beach after being neck and neck on a wave with a dozen other girls. Hayden Cotter competing in U17 Finals winning 3 Gold, 1 Silver and 1 Bronze. Our Club had another exceptional year in the team s events also, competing in 26 finals across the range of disciplines collecting 3 Gold, 3 Silver and 3 Bronze. I would like to personally thank our team that help make this come together every year. Nathan (Bugsy) Greig: Coaching Coordinator Rhys Drury: Ski Coach Glen Wilson: Beach Coach Maddi Korac: Champion Lifesaver Coach Lenore Grice: First Aid Coach Michael (Megsy) Brooks: Surf Boat Coach Bill Scott: March Past Coach The volunteers that assist the above with Water Safety, Transport, Carnival Officials and the parents who look after these amazing young competitors go to morning training, school and back to training week in week out. Our depth in young competitors is something we have not seen for many years; the future is looking exciting. A final thank you to the Boards for your support throughout the year and everyone else who contributes to this awesome club. 25

28 Team Manager s Report Stuart Travers achievement noun A thing done successfully with effort, skill, or courage. This single word from The Oxford dictionary can be used to simply define the Maroochydore Surf Sports Program and the results this extraordinary group of individuals working together as a team have been able to achieve in the last season. The vast array of results that can be found throughout this Annual Report is testament to the commitment of athletes, coaches, support staff and parents, countless early mornings, muscle aches and pains and the often-large distances travelled. The Black Swan s persistence is now consistently pushing the strengths of many of the major clubs on a regular basis. The past year we have seen our growth continue to strengthen in numbers, ability and diversity. The increased participation in more traditional events like Champion Lifesaver, Belt Racing, Rescue Tube Rescue and Pool Rescue has provided further outlets for many to achieve memorable results and explore new avenues of competition alongside the standard surf disciplines. Again this year we have also had numerous representatives on State, National and International teams across many different sporting fields including, Kayaking, Open Water Swimming and Surf Lifesaving. A result along with all others this season I am sure every Member of Maroochydore Surf Life Saving Club are proud to be associated with. To all of you involved this season in some way either large or small, thank you for your continued support, you are the glue that binds the Black Swan Team and without you the pages don t turn. You are all very much an integral and appreciated part of the team. I would like to thank you all for allowing me to also be a part of this great team. It has been an honour and a pleasure to be a part of your successes. A final thank you must go to the Maroochydore Surf Life Saving Supporters Club who without, none of these incredible achievements would be possible. I will leave you with the current word of the year Youthquake. A fitting conclusion to the path of 2018! U15-U17 Report Toni-Maree Pettigrew Just love watching Maroochydore Surf Life Saving Club go from strength to strength. This season has seen the U15-U17 age group swell to above 60 fully active and highly participatory members across all disciplines. From Nipper mentors and water safety, to providing first aid and IRB crews at Nipper carnivals along with their normal patrolling contribution. This group of highly capable and responsible young people have ensured Maroochydore is in an enviable position. What about the Surf Sports side? Holy Wow! First Aid, Champion Life Saver and Surf Sports. look at all the Bling, #1 for U17 at Aussies! It takes a community to make Maroochydore great so at the end of the season, we should all reflect and celebrate US. Can t wait for next season. with another large group of amazing youth entering the U15-U17 age group. 26

29 Coach s Report Nathan Greig Australian Titles Open 4th place overall point score Youth State Titles 3rd place overall point score JUNIOR ACTIVITIES The Youth of Maroochydore continue to develop and shine as a competitive, skilful group who manage to hold their own against the best athletes in the State and Australia. This season Maroochydore finished 2nd in the Sunshine Coast Branch and 3rd in the Queensland State Titles Overall Club Point Scores. This is the 10th year running that we have managed to finish in the top 3 (point score) at the Queensland State Titles. No other club has managed this feat over this period, proving we are providing a great environment to develop our own athletes and Lifesavers. As always, our Annual Boot Camp to Stradbroke Island set the tone for the season and laid a foundation for us to build on throughout the year. Thankyou to all the parents who gave up their time to help make the camp a life-long memory for the kids. Beau Farrell and Jake Dale continued to increase their coaching capacity. The boys have done a fantastic job passing on their knowledge and moulding the group. The young athletes have really responded to Beau and Jake as they learn their craft. Thank you to Kirk Jarrott and the Nipper Committee for the fantastic effort that they bestowed over the years. Your time and guidance has been appreciated. YOUTH TITLES This season we took the group to Western Australia for the Aussie Titles. For some it was their first taste of Aussies racing and atmosphere, and for others the focus was about looking for redemption from last season. It was pleasing for all that there was a real team spirit amongst the group. In reflection of last season, the decision was made to hold a weekend camp for the group just prior to Aussies. Danny Short enlisted the help of Maroochydore legends Kerri Thomas, Clint Irwin and Miranda Bell who passed on their knowledge and experiences of competing at the highest level. This gave the group an opportunity to bond and discuss their thoughts, assisting us to be prepared for the main event. We had a fantastic weekend of results; Gold U15 Board Race - Dominique Stitt U15 Male Surf Teams - Joseph McMenamin, Sam Short, Oliver Monaghan, Sunny Williams Silver U15 Female Surf Race - Isabella Shipp U14 Female Beach Sprint - Kiara Rychvalsky U15 Female Surf Teams - Dominique Stitt, Issabella Shipp, Ella Shuttleworth, Matilida Jarrot U15 Male Board Relay - Oliver Monaghan, Jack Newton, Joseph McMenamin U15 Female Cameron Relay - Isabella Shipp, Olivia Lomas, Dominique Stitt, Kiara Rychvalsky Bronze U15 Male Board Riding - Joseph Mc Menamin OPEN AUSSIES U17 OPEN The Open Section of the club had a massive Aussies, finishing a close 4th in the overall Club Point Score. For the first 3 days of competition we were virtually unstoppable as the U17 section racked up win after win. Hayden Cotter, Ruben Zikarsky and Tiarnee Massie won 3 Gold each! With each athlete obtaining individual and team golds. This is the first time in our history that we have experienced three, triple Gold medallist from one Aussies. The U17 Age Group went on to win Maroochydore s first ever U17 Point Score at an Australian Titles. This is a very tight-nit group and the desire to put in for each other and take on the best Australia has to offer, was on display all week. 27

30 Our Open Female Taplin Team consisted of competitors from each of the age groups Tiarnee Massie (U17), Alexandra Clarke (U19) and Brianna Massie (Open). The girls went agonisingly close to the Gold medal before ultimately finishing second. This was an outstanding performance and typified the spirit shown over the week. A big thankyou to Chelsea Gillett who put the club first and swam the heat and semi of the Taplin. Hayden Cotter had the whole beach talking after winning the U17 2km Swim with a time that beat the Open winner by 1 minute. Hayden then went on to win the U17 Male Surf Race and finished 3rd (run up beach for Gold) in the Open Men s Race. Hayden s ability to back up race after race and perform at a continual high level is astounding. We had four U17 Girls in the Ski Final with 3 of the Girls on the winning wave. Alicia Fay ultimately prevailed in the sprint for the line to take out her first ever individual Title. Jenaya Massie finished a close 3rd with Tiarnee Massie 5th and Phoebe Wills Grace on the wave behind. Everyone who attend, experienced a fantastic week of racing and a real team atmosphere from the group. We sat in 3rd place on the Point Score from the Wednesday through to the last event Sunday (Open Male and Female Beach Flags). It was here, on the hill that I witnessed Maroochydore s next special generation emerge. The whole competitive team stayed back and watched the Flags finals hoping/ praying that we could hang onto an 8-point lead over Kurrawa. This was real team spirit, it was unscripted and unprompted. As the group grew so did the excitement and a belief began to emerge form a group of friends/mates that anything was possible. This moment was a turning point for our club, this was the beginning of something special. Gold U17 Male Champion Lifesaver Ruben Zikarsky U17 Male Surf Race Hayden Cotter U17 Male 2km Ocean Swim Hayden Cotter U17 Female Surf Race Tiarnee Massie U17 Female Single Ski Alicia Fay U17 Female Surf Team Tiarnee Massie, Sarah McGrath, Summer Short, Phoebe Wills-Grace U17 Female Ski Relay Alicia Fay, Tiarnee Massie, Jenaya Massie U17 Male Surf Team Hayden Cotter, Ethan Irvine, Adam Palmer, Ruben Zikarsky U17 Male Board Relay Adam Palmer, Kieran Webb, Ruben Zikarsky Silver U17 Female Champion Lifesaver Sarah McGrath U17 Male Surf Board Rescue Hayden Cotter, Adam Palmer U19 Female Double Ski Alexandra Clarke, Alicia Fay Open Female Taplin Relay Alexandra Clarke, Brianna Massie, Tiarnee Massie, Chelsea Gillett Bronze Open Male Surf Race Hayden Cotter U17 Ironman Adam Palmer U17 Female Single Ski Jenaya Massie Open Female Rescue Tube Rescue Chloe Bounty, Jamie Cotter, Chelsea Gillett, Summer Short U19 First Aid Competition Jacob Crothers, Zoe Meredith-Brown U17 First Aid Competition Claudia Korac, Heloise Pascoe OCEANS 6 NUTRI GRAIN The Nutri Grain series took on a different format this season with qualifying for the Iron finals occurring on the Saturday of the Oceans 6 rounds. A small group of Maroochydore athletes chased the series around the east coast of Australia, racing the best in the country. Tiarnee Massie (17yrs) qualified for Sundays finals on 3 occasions, with her best performance an outstanding 8th place. Tiarnee finished 19th in the overall standings and proved time and again she can take it to the older competitors. Tiarnee will be a year older and a year wiser next season. Having come to understand the racing (through experience) will only assist her to improve her overall standing. I m predicting big things for this girl next season and along with the Palmer brothers and Hayden Cotter, Maroochydore will continue to rise. CONCLUSION Last season s Aussies may have been a washout, but we still managed a swag of team Gold, this year we got the chance to finish the job and everyone performed. We have now strung together a few solid seasons of racing at this level and next season looks to be even better. Again, I stress the importance of working together and in one direction. We all have a role to play in creating an environment, that allows these athletes and lifesavers to flourish. The athletes really put in over the season, they worked hard together and they grew together. We are at the beginning of something special, let s make sure we (as a club) get it right. Thank you to Rhys Drury, Michael Brooks, Glen Wilson, Jake Dale, Beau Farrell, Lenore Grice, Maddi Korac and Stuart Travers - you along with our team of officials and administrators, have allowed the athletes and lifesavers to flourish. Your contributions deeply impact the development of the club which is immensely appreciated. 28

31 Ski Captain s Report Todd Grace What a difference a year makes! After last years anticlimax of the cancelled Nationals, this year our Maroochydore Ski Squad came in swinging! The conditions were challenging to say the least but that certainly didn t phase our crew who just put their head down, applied their skills and grabbed every opportunity. I am very pleased to present the following Ski results at championship level for the season. AUSTRALIAN SURF LIFESAVING CHAMPIONSHIPS (PERTH): Gold U17 Female Single Surf Ski: Alicia Fay U17 Female Single Surf Ski Relay: Alicia Fay, Tiarnee Massie, Jenaya Massie Silver U19 Female Double Ski: Alicia Fay, Alexandra Clarke Female Double Ski (Masters): Kat Egan and Tamara Thorogood Bronze U17 Female Single Surf Ski: Jenaya Massie A special mention really does have to go to our U17 Female Ski Paddlers who were consistently in the mix in finals in solid numbers. Aptly described by livestream commentator, Ralph Devlin AM QC, as the Maroochydore Wolf Pack hunting their spot in the finals! Hunt and gather they certainly did with some amazing individual and team performances. To have 2 Ski Relay Teams finish 1st and 4th, and to have our three relay winning athletes all on the same finishing wave in the single ski in the national final, and all finishing within the top 5 on a video finish is just outstanding. QUEENSLAND STATE TITLES: Gold Open Mixed Double Ski: Alyce Burnett, Jordan Wood Open Female Ski Relay: Alyce Burnett, Brianna Massie, Caitlin Gilliman U17 Female Single Surf Ski: Jenaya Massie U17 Female Single Surf Ski Relay: Alicia Fay, Tiarnee Massie, Jenaya Massie 45+ Female Double Ski (Masters): Kat Egan and Tamara Thorogood Silver Open Female Single Surf Ski: Alyce Burnett U17 Female Single Surf Ski Relay: Alicia Fay, Tiarnee Massie, Jenaya Massie Female Single Ski: Tamara Thorogood Bronze Open Female Single Surf Ski: Brianna Massie Open Female Double Ski: Alyce Burnett and Brianna Massie U19 Female Double Ski: Alexandra Clarke and Tamarind Wildin-Snedden U17 Female Single Surf Ski Relay: Devon Beveridge, Tamarind Wildin-Snedden, Hamarna Williams U17 Female Single Surf Ski: Hamarna Williams Obviously, these are just the straight ski discipline events. There are other events that our athletes utilise the Ski Program for, such as Iron and Taplin events congratulations to all of the athletes who have done exceptionally well in events over the last year. There are a number of people that I would really like to thank for supporting the Ski Program over the season. Firstly, our coaches, Bugsy and Rhys what a great team and who really have the best interests of the athletes at heart. Not only do we have some great athletic performances across the board, the team dynamic of our athletes is just outstanding, and our coaches have a lot to do with nurturing that. To those who stepped in to help take ski sessions at the beginning of season while Rhys was on his break, thank you! Keeping up the continuity of training was so important, and it couldn t have happened with your help. Special mention to Ashley Massie who really helped fill that gap on many a session. To those who are working hard on (and off!) the beach for us specifically Stuart Travers and Peter (Mullet) Mitchell, who has been a godsend at carnivals and training, helping to get skis on and off the line and been incredibly supportive and encouraging to our paddlers. To Mal Pratt and Ralph Devlin AM QC, thank you for your ongoing support of the Ski Squad s Youth Development Training Program with the sponsorship of another Ski Ergo. This has been integral to our paddlers technique development. We held very successful off-water technique sessions in the gym on Fridays leading up to competition season and will repeat that again this year with another crop of youngsters transitioning through. Having another Ergo has helped us cater to the numbers that are attending these sessions. It is also going to be a key tool in finetuning the skills of those in our Lifesaving World Cup Squad, in their bid to win the Youth Interclub division. Thank you also for your patience while we were reorganising the ski spaces at the beginning of last season. The knowledge of who actually needed what was very valuable and I m pleased to report that we have been able to cater to all paddlers who requested space. There will always be the potential that spaces could move year on year, depending on who needs what space. Lastly, I would like to acknowledge the 7 (yes 7!!!!) members of the Maroochydore Ski Squad who have recently achieved Australian Team selection in Kayaking (ski paddling s sister sport) and wish them luck in the coming months at various international competitions. Congratulations to Jenaya Massie, Phoebe Wills-Grace, Tiarnee Massie, Alicia Fay, Brianna Massie, Alyce Burnett and Jordan Wood. Not only that, Jenaya Massie has also recently secured her spot on the Australian Youth Olympic Team after an exceptional performance at the qualification event in Spain. The fact that she flew back from Spain to Perth on the Tuesday and won a National Gold Medal in the Ski Relay a day later is mind-blowing. Well done for another fantastic year Maroochydore and next year I look forward to seeing both the U17s and U19s take out the point score championships at Aussies knowing the group we have coming through into U17s and those who are moving up into U19s it s a very achievable goal! 29

32 Board Captain s Report Jake Dale It s been another amazing year of Surf Lifesaving with all athletes competing at Ocean 6, Branch, State and Aussies. But as the season comes to an end its time to reflect on the success of the board paddlers who proudly wear the mighty blue, black and white cap. Although the season ended on a brisk morning on the Western Australian coast athletes have been pushing boundaries and striving for their goals since July last year. The training cycles were as usual developed by our coaching coordinator Bugsy who allowed the seamless flow through Christmas into the pointy end of the season. All this training and hard work lead to the squad bagging the incredible individual results at State. Ally Clarke smashed out a Gold in the U19 Individual Board. Ben Wischusen achieved another Gold in the U14 Individual Board. Oliver Monaghan made it a trifecta winning Gold in the U15 Individual Board. After strong results at States all athletes traveled to Perth with plenty of determination and ambition. But let s let the results do the talking. Adam Palmer, Ruben Zikarsky and Kieran Webb smashed the U17 Board relay coming away with the Gold. Joseph McMenamin, Jack Newton and Oliver Monaghan got second in the U15 Board relay. Adam Palmer backed up with a third in the U17 Iron and also lead the board until an unlucky wave left him with a sour taste (Gotta love surf). Dominique Stitt didn t leave the west coast disappointed where she also took away a Gold in the U15 Board Race. On a side note it was great to see the youth s confidence grow as the season progressed. Allowing them to strive for excellence at Aussies. While there were plenty of amazing moments this season my favorite part was Tuesday afternoons when I coached the nippers. As I get older I take enjoyment and satisfaction from attending board sessions as I believe it helps younger members improve their skills and achieve their goals. With Nathan s knowledge and mine and Beau s assistance I believe that Maroochydore can create a new generation of athletes that will make Maroochydore Surf Club proud. Beach Captain s Report Michael Walpole So, another great season comes to an end, a huge thank you must go to our Beach Coach Glen Wilson for working so hard on a brilliantly tailored training program. Whilst we were working with a smaller senior squad this year, we saw some terrific results coming through. In true form, we have another member of the Rychvalsky family coming home from Aussies with a medal from the Beach Sprints with Kiara picking up Silver in the U15 Beach Sprint and a 4th in the Beach Flags. Joining Kiara for a Silver in the Cameron Relay was Olivia Lomas a newer addition to the squad this year, showing massive improvements through the season which I can quite easily say was from her work ethic at training, it just goes to show that hard work does pay off. Our future in the Beach Section is looking exceptionally strong with a couple of great competitors coming up through Nippers right now. New to the Club this season were sisters Jade and Tayla Bartholomeusz both exemplary competitors and collecting some serious weight in medals across the season, the top of their season at State Titles saw Jade come away with 3rd in the Beach Sprint and Taylor with 1st in both the Beach Sprint and Beach Flags, and a Silver in the Cameron. All of these great results from some new competitors is a testament to Glen s coaching and the effort of all our competitors this season. It would be great to see a larger contingent of the Club represented at training and Beach Events, there is some terrific talent around and it can only improve from here. So if you re looking to get fit come and join in. 30

33 Swim Captain s Report Nikki Chapman It was another successful season for our swim section with our usual superstars producing the goods! Hayden Cotter and Tiarnee Massie had, once again, outstanding performances with Hayden winning not only the U17 Surf Race and U17 2km Swim but also gaining an amazing 3rd in the Open Surf Race and with Tiarnee winning the U17 Surf Race. Another great performance was made by the U17 Swim Team winning Gold with Sarah McGrath, Summer Short, Tiarnee Massie and Phoebe Wills-Grace. This season Danny Short and John Baxter worked hard at motivating a group of athletes to perform in events that we haven t had many people compete in for a while. The belt races especially were decked out with the blue, black and white competing very admirably. I believe that these athletes will continue to improve with more experience under their belt and be a force to be reckoned with. Overall, our athletes had a fantastic season and I can t wait for the next!! Masters Liaison Officer s Report Warren Lee Another great year for the Masters, firstly I would like to thank our team of Masters for fundraising, organising work parties at carnivals, and also to the Officials who attended carnivals. Our Masters Patrols were outstanding this season, with qualified members on our patrol which included the Massie Crew, Dr Dan, Phil Lyons and all other Members, also including Long Service Members. A special thanks must also go out to our Life Members who contributed this season. Our ladies excelled at the Branch, State, and Aussies events this year. A big thanks to Kat Egan for supplying training throughout the year and also to Mal Pratt for his kind words and knowledgeable advice. We will line-up again in so any new members over the age of 30 are welcome to join in and compete with the Masters. If you are interested, please contact the Masters Liaison Officer. A big thanks goes to the management of the Maroochydore Surf Club that have worked diligently in providing assistance, facilities and transport of equipment to carnivals. We also thank, Stuart Travers and Al Vidler for organising tents, teams, and management at carnivals which were very long days spent on the beach. 31

34 Boat Captain Report Michael Brooks The boat section this year saw the recruitment of some new faces and the return of some previous members. Through the first year sweeping of Harvey Flynn we were able to produce 3 new crews with 10 of these members being under 24yrs old. Harvey really showed good leadership and provided amazing resilience and untiring service to the whole section this year. SEASON HIGHLIGHTS Force Reserve Men won every QLD carnival this year except the unluckiest Silver at the State Titles. The crew was once again the Qld crew and was part of the successful team which tied with NSW. The highlight was the Silver medal at the ASRL Open in Sydney. Also, Congratulations to Corey Stone on retaining the QLD Cyclones Boat Captaincy for the 2nd year. The Force Open Women are a first-year crew and had a great year. The girls best result was a 2nd at the National Selection Trials. The crew made all but 1 final (top 6) for the whole season and have really learnt the high standard needed to row on the big stage, next year will be a fantastic ride. Special thanks to Bob Stone for driving to Brisbane to train the crew at 4:45am. Also, a special mention to Surfair Beach Hotel for clothing the boaties this year. Next year we continue with our goal to have 1 crew in each division and bring on new sweeps. We hope to recruit junior crews from existing club members who want to have a go and go for the big prize of national boat relay champions.

35 Pool Rescue Championship Report Nathan McGrath The Australian Pool Rescue Championships were held on 4-6th August at the South Australian Aquatic Centre at Marion. Maroochydore athletes acquitted themselves exceptionally over the three days of competition and ended up 2nd on the Overall point score behind Currumbin, but ahead of Northcliffe which is always nice. We had a number of medallists over the three days of competition, but it was extremely encouraging to see the number of placings that we had in the 4th-6th positions, and a number of top 10 s that next year will be top 6. This built on our form earlier in the Pool Rescue season where we were the leading Club at our Branch Titles and placed 2nd at the State Pool Rescue Tiles on the Gold Coast. A special mention to our U17 Age Group athletes who competed in Open Events and walked away with medals at this event, a massive achievement and something that you should be very proud of. A few thankyous are in order, to our Coaching Staff, John Baxter, Liam Short and Danny Short, without you we would not be in the position we are in, your expert coaching is very much appreciated. Our group accommodation at Adelaide Shores Resort was excellent, and even though we didn t manage to play golf across the road at either of the 2 courses available, the camaraderie and team bonding experienced ensured a happy trip for us all. To the athletes who made the long trek to freezing cold, windy, and wet Adelaide, thank you, the results that you managed were exceptional, and we can only move onward to bigger and better things, with LWC next year things are building nicely. To all of the parents and supporters and other helpers, thank you, a lot of time, effort and money goes into attending these Championships, and without the sacrifices made by you we would not get the outstanding results that we did achieve. So, until next year s Pool Rescue season, good luck, and we will see you all shortly on the beach.

36 March Past Team Report Ralph Devlin AM QC, Bill Scott & Kara Wills Coach Bill Scott had our team marching better this year. We scored 4 points consistently right up until the Queensland Championships, but returned to reality with an 8.5 score in Perth. More work to do next season, but our group is committed to continuous improvement. One highlight was at the Branch Championships, where, but for a mis-mark of our card, we would have had our first Championships win. As it was, even with the mis-count, we lost only on a countback, as also occurred in the Murphy Homes carnival. This early improvement and consistency gave us confidence moving into the States. We scored our third State Bronze in three years, behind Burleigh and Alex, so congratulations to them. Mike Dwyer, Danni Driscoll, Michelle Burnett and Larissa Hallam were part of our regular team up to and including the Queensland Championships. They were unable to attend the Aussies in Perth. Thanks to Len Harris, Bill Scott, Phoebe Wills-Grace and Sarah McGrath for stepping in. The Aussies March Past was a great event, held after electrical storms had passed, and before a big and enthusiastic crowd, even though it was the only event held on the last day. Our regular team for the season was: Mike Dwyer (flag) Narelle Souter (belt) Kirk Williamson Ralph Devlin AM QC Steve Wieland Steve Ellwood (reel party) Brett Williamson Danni Driscoll (drum) Fiona Meredith, Michelle Burnett, Toni Pettigrew, Larissa Hallam. (Backline) Bill Scott (Coach) Next season we hope to be joined in competition on a regular basis by our fabulous Under 17s who were unable to defend their Australian Championship in Perth. It would be great to field two teams throughout Thanks to Bill Scott for his expert coaching. Also to Under 17 Coach Kara Wills for your support and encouragement AUSSIES, PERTH 2018 QUEENSLAND CHAMPIONSHIPS, MAROOCHYDORE 34

48 Maroochydore SLSC Shimoda LSC Exchange Program Report Alan Vidler Coordinator Summer Program Peter Dun Coordinator Winter Program We have celebrated the 20th year of the exchange program and what an eventful 20 years it has been. In August 2017 we sent 6 Maroochydore Members to Shimoda, and in December we hosted 13 Shimoda Members at Maroochydore for training. Many thanks to our Club Manager, Jack Orr, his very helpful staff, the Training Crew, Youth Group and Kitchen Volunteers who were responsible for another successful December training camp. As usual, our Aussie lifestyle was shared with the Shimoda group by some of our Club families who opened up their homes for a meal and a good social get together. Social events like Australia Zoo, a climb up Mt Coolum, and a visit to Laser Zone with many of our younger members were usual additions to the program. Surf Life Saving Queensland put on an Aussie breakfast for the squad upon arrival in Australia. Thanks to SLSA and SLSQ past President Ron Rankin, SLSQ CEO John Brennan and the SLSQ group for their hospitality. The Consul-General of Japan, Ms Keiko Yanai, and State and Local Dignitaries attended our beach training, toured our Clubhouse and shared a meal in the Club where discussions were held about the success of the exchange program. On 19 February Mike Dwyer, Peter Dun and Alan Vidler attended the Consul-General s residence at Hamilton where Ms Keiko Yanai presented a certificate of commendation to Ms Akiko Hisamatsu from Shimoda Life Saving Club. A welldeserved recognition to Ako for her tireless efforts over the past 20 plus years. Maroochydore SLSC has recognised Ako Hisamatsu, Sandy Hisamatsu, Koji Horiuchi and Shusaku (Shu) Miyabe with plaques and Honorary Vice-President Memberships to our Club in acknowledging their contribution to the exchange program. Life Governor, Mal Pratt and Mike Dwyer have previously been awarded Honorary Life Vice-Presidents by the Shimoda LSC for their ongoing dedication to the Sister Club relationship. Certificates of Gratitude for their service to the exchange program were also previously presented by Shimoda LSC to Mrs Gerry Clatworthy, Mrs Anne Dun and the late, great Stan Wilcox. Plaques and Honorary Memberships were presented by Shimoda LSC to Mrs Fran Boulton, Mrs Julie McMullen, Mr Peter Dun, Mr Alan Vidler and Mr Terry O Connor in recognition of their long-term involvement in the program. The success of this program, I am sure, is attributed to the support of our Club s Committee and a seemingly neverending supply of Club Members willing to get involved and share in the Sister Club relationship. 46

49 Board of Junior Activities Report Kirk Jarrott, Director Happy 50th Birthday! The best birthday present for our 50th year was to be crowned the Best Nipper Club on the Sunshine Coast at the Queensland State Titles, finishing a creditable 3rd place behind two Gold Coast Clubs. 50 years of Nippers at Maroochydore Beach is certainly an exceptional achievement. The key to our success is simply everyone s investment in time and engage likeminded people to Volunteer their time for the benefit of young Australians and future Lifesavers. Our success stems from keeping our kids safe in an unpredictable environment and teaching a high level of surf skills. The challenges of our open beach are many, only those with specialised training can master those challenges and test themselves later in situations when the need arises to save lives. Our entire JA Team take the safety of our Members extremely seriously and it should be highlighted that whilst our Patrol Members volunteer to safeguard the public, our Water Safety Members volunteer to safeguard OUR Nipper Members, with similar SLSA Awards. Safety is the heart and soul of our operations, THANK YOU to the Water Safety personnel who have done over 90 hours of service this season. SUNDAYS AND WORKFORCE I d like to thank all Nipper family members who fitted our Junior Activities workload around their already hectic lives. A special thanks to our kiosk team led again by Helen Patrick. I m also grateful for all the efforts of our hard-working committee namely: Deputy Chair Jason Bristow; Treasurer Andrew Patrick; Secretary Tracey Wischusen; Team Manager Steve Rychvalsky; Gear Steward Adrien Cullinan; Director of Surf Awards - Brad Kildey; Coaching Co-ordinator Brad Stark. We have seen an enormous effort and combined success of our office holders including: JUNIOR COACHES: Nathan Greig Club Coaching Co-ordinator; Swim Coach John Baxter/Nathan McGrath; Board Coaches Damien Andrew / Jake Dale / Beau Farrell; Beach Coach Glen Wilson; Photographers - Michelle Maxwell/Brett Shuttleworth; Mast Past Coaches Kara Wills Grace/Kylie McGrath; Our awesome Age Managers and Assistants are the pulse of Junior Activities, thanks for dedicating your time to our awesome program. AGE MANAGERS/ASSISTANTS: Cadets Danny Short, Rob Boughton/Kristy Rychvalsky/ Mick Casey; U13 Jason McGrath/Brad Stark/Todd Grace; U12 Natalie Jarrott/Brett Shuttleworth; U11 Brooke Starr-Thomas/Nathan McGrath; U10 Clint Irwin/Glen Pickering/Joanna Rodd; U9 Steve Rychvalsky/Shannon McGrath/ Wayne Spindler; U8 Tyler Carroll/Peter Halfweeg; U7 Deb Steele/Karen Nichols; U6 Fiona Meredith/Dr Dan Draper; CAPTAINS AND CAMPS This season our Club Captains were Matilda Jarrott and Jacob Bristow. Their leadership skills were displayed by mentoring and engaging younger participants at Bugsy s Boot Camp held at Point Lookout SLSC. Later in the year, joining other Cub Cadets they participated in a Youth Leadership program at Noosa (Camp Commando) where they increased their team building, personal development and orientation skills. Congratulations for being wonderful mentors for the younger age groups and proudly representing our Club at the recent ANZAC Day Memorial Service. CARNIVALS This season we competed right around Australia, as members competed in Queensland, New South Wales, Pool Rescue racing in South Australia and the Cadet s efforts at Scarborough Beach in WA for the National Championships were simply awesome. Our performances at the Queensland State Championships and at National Titles in Perth were the highlight of the season, which saw our Junior Activities Members nail so many races and produce some of their best efforts for the year. Our entire JA committee is very proud of everyone s efforts over the season and we embrace the support given by those members who helped our kids by providing First Aid, Officials, Water Safety and IRB Crew at the carnivals we attended. Our kids cannot compete without this energised support and you only have to look at the smiles on our kids faces to see that it is all worthwhile. On behalf of the JA Committee, I d like to thank all of the Queensland and Branch Surf Life Saving Work Crew and all the other Surf Club Officials and their army of helpers. Also congratulations to the Clubs who hosted JA carnivals this year as everyone s time and energy showcased very successful carnivals. To all our Nipper families thank you very much for being part our Nipper program for the year and on behalf of the JA Committee, we wish your families all the best in the coming Winter sports and to keep fit for next year s Nipper Season at Maroochydore. Finally, as I am stepping down from Chair, I m looking forward to helping the incoming committee continue the tradition of moving Junior Activities forward with our Nipper program. 47

51 Board of Marketing and Promotions Report Chris Wadeson, Director In retrospect, I believe we have had a very successful year. This has been very much a team effort and I would like to acknowledge the contribution of our team. Firstly, Mal Pratt for stepping into my shoes while I was unwell thank you Mal. Secondly Jodie Crowther who has done a terrific job behind the scenes. Lastly the board Rob Elford who seems to know everyone at the Club and through his knowledge makes a huge contribution, Majella Marsden (who is sadly leaving us this year and will be sorely missed), Larissa Hallam for her major contribution handling the clothing under difficult conditions Larissa is also leaving us and will also be sorely missed, Tim Ryan for his wealth of knowledge and continued support of the Club and our lovely Summer Surf Girl Nikki Chapman who has helped raise a great deal of money for the Club this year. Nikki has agreed to stay on the Board and she will be a very welcome addition, and Kylie McGrath has kindly offered to step into Larissa s position thank you Kylie. The Club has managed to secure a number of new sponsors this year. I would like to specifically mention Cricks Sunshine Coast who sponsored our January Golf Day and provided the Club with a courtesy vehicle and 4x4 Triton Ute. Also, BCU has embraced the Nippers with a vengeance and have made a major contribution to equipment and funds. There is also Helloworld Maroochydore who have been very generous in looking after travel arrangements with teams traveling to the USA and Japan this year and sponsoring Supporters Club prizes and events. Andrews Airport Parking has sponsored Boards and the numerous other sponsors who have all contributed towards the Club in various ways. To all the sponsors I offer my heartfelt thanks and appreciation. There are also many individuals who have contributed to the Club. In particular I would like to mention the Clatworthy family who generously supports the Club in many areas. To all those other individuals I also offer my thanks for their support. The major fundraising effort this year was the January Golf Day. Generously assisted by Cricks this day was a huge success. We are already planning next year s event with a possible change of venue. The last major fund-raising event for this year will be the Sportsman Long Lunch. Through Tim Ryan s effort we have managed to secure Kerry O Keefe as the main speaker who will be ably assisted by Ian Healy. We anticipate a sell-out for this lunch and through pre-ticket sales 90 percent of tables were sold before we even started promotions. Our illustrious Summer Surf Girl Nikki Chapman has been very active in her fund-raising commitments and Nikki has hosted several successful events throughout the year. Thank you again Nikki. This has been my first year on the Board and I must say it has been a pleasure working with such a great team of dedicated people and my admiration for the Club and its staff continues to grow. I am looking forward to a full year of contribution unfettered by health issues MAROOCHYDORE SLSC SPORTS LUNCH IRON LEGENDS 2018 SUMMER SURF GIRL MAROOCHYDORE SLSC ANNUAL CHARITY GOLF DAY 49

52 Summer Surf Girl Nikki Chapman Well what a season that was! The Summer Surf Girl Program is all about empowering women within Surf Life Saving and developing skills such as leadership, confidence, organisation, management the list could go on forever really! Personally, I was pushed out of my comfort zone into areas of the Club that I really had no idea about and it gave me an insight on how much our Volunteers actually do and how much commitment that they have for our Club! A big part of the program was to help with fundraising and to engage with the community as well as our own members. Looking back on the year I was able to help organise the following events: Cricks Sponsorship Karaoke Night 10,000 Draw Boxing Day Raffle Honda Scooter Raffle Annual Golf Day Australia Day BBQ Trivia Night Women s High Tea As well as these events we also ventured out into the Cotton Tree community and engaged in community education which was absolutely fantastic and something that the public really enjoyed, and I hope that the Club can continue these initiatives into the future. I was also able to volunteer at abranch level, this allowed me to develop good relationships with Branch employees which I feel is essential in providing the best support to our members and the community, as we are a whole entity. I am so thankful that the Club has given me this opportunity and I am proud of what I have achieved and the personal growth that I feel I have gained. There are many people that I need to thank as the whole Club really got behind me and supported what I was trying to achieve. I can t name everyone here, but I hope you all know how very appreciative I am of you, I would just like to make a special mention to Matt Murray (Cricks Sunshine Coast) as I am so very thankful to have had him as a mentor. I honestly don t think I could have survived without his unwavering support of me and the lessons he taught me as well as getting his Marketing Team to help me out when needed. It was definitely a tough journey but one that I am grateful to have been on. 50

56 Board of Finance and Resources Report Andrew Patrick, Director The members of the Maroochydore Surf Life Saving Club, it is with pleasure that I present this report on the financial status of the Club for the financial year ending 30 April It has been a challenging year in this role, and I wish to thank all that have assisted me along the way. A big thanks to the finance committee for your support, and a special mention to Sophie Croucher for your additional support and guidance. Upon undertaking this role, the board undertook a full review of all budgets across all departments in order to ensure we were allocating funds correctly to all departments. While acknowledging the budgets took some extended time to complete, we believe that they were fair and just for each department and reflected the true expenditure required for each. With the introduction of real time reporting for each department, we were able to make funds available as needed. This will make preparation of budgets going forward an easier task for each department. I wish to thank all Directors and Sectional Captains for their understanding and patience with this process throughout the season. Looking at the Financial Statements as presented, the overall revenue for the club was $1,413,735, down from $1,534,500 in the prior year. This was due mainly to a reduction in rent received, down from $600,000 to $444,996, however, donations received increased from $475,950 to $503,163. The reduction in rent is as per the sub lease arrangement with the supporters club and will be adjusted as per that sub lease agreement. Other notable items include employee expenses which decreased from $421,485 to $369,607. There was an overall decrease in sundry expenses (uniforms, motor vehicles, awards) however an increase in other areas such as Japan squad expenses and the USA tour expenses. Balance sheet items also fared well. On the asset side, cash at bank increased from $217,589 to $305,053. Debtors and Creditors were also monitored. Debtors were reduced from $32,630 to $8,513, Creditors reduced from $67,920 down to $43,419, leaving us in a much better position - less owing to us at year s end and less owed by us. Plant and equipment also reduced however this is as a result of depreciation - $276,938. On the liabilities side, non-current liabilities reduced from $377,684 to $304,133. Overall total liabilities reduced from $1,528,295 to $1,408,154. The Financial Statements show borrowings of one commercial bill of $1,085,000. This was raised for the purchase of 6th ave and currently remains interest only. Moving forward it is the Board s intention to review this arrangement. A second facility is the business bank bill loan of $83,220. This has reduced significantly from $142,800 as at the same time last year. Overall, the Club ended the year with a net deficit of $20,935. I have been advised by the Auditors (MGI Audit Pty Ltd) who have finished their audit of our accounts that we have met all requirements of the Australian Taxation Office. For the year ending April 2018 and we do not have a tax liability. I wish to thank all Board Members, Finance Committee and the General Manager for their continued support and look forward to continued success for the Club going forward. 54

66 Grants Officer Report Kim Musgrove Once again I am delighted to inform our Members that our Grants Program is on track and we have been successful with more grants being approved by Federal, State and Local Governments through the respective Grants Initiatives. While all grants are both desperately needed and highly prized by successful recipients, a major highlight this season for us is the awarding of our submission regarding the purchase of a Beach Tractor, which has historically been placed in the too hard basket for many, many years. Persistence does pay dividends it seems. Another important highlight was the successful application for our new Member Lockers which are in place and being used, to this end, I think they look great downstairs and proves that when we go into partnership with funding entities, in this case the Sunshine Coast Regional Council and the Club, then our Members reap the rewards. In this regard I would like to thank Glenn Mulholland our Club Maintenance Officer and all around good bloke, for the work he and his team of volunteers did in constructing the lockers, putting them in place and assigning the individual combination locks for our Members use. Speaking of downstairs and departing slightly from Grants per say I would to also thank the Board of Management for their approval in allowing the construction of our new Patrol Storage Area which will be fitted out and used by our patrolling members during the next season of volunteer lifesaving. In summary, apart from the Queensland State Government Volunteer Marine Rescue (VMR) assistance package administered through SLSQ of $22, for we received the following grant approvals; Sunshine Coast Regional Council $2, Purchase of Members Lockers Surf Life Saving Queensland $11, Purchase of new IRB Queensland Fire and Emergency Service $1, Purchase of Beach Signs and Uniforms Sunshine Coast Regional Council $2, Purchase of Ski Ergo Queensland State Government Gambling and Community Benefit Fund $22, Purchase of Beach Tractor Total $38, Queensland State Government VMR $22, Volunteer Marine Rescue General Ledger Balance $60, Community Support This season MSLSC & Supporters Club has been proud to make financial and in-kind contributions and support to the following organisations.
