Linfox sponsors Nipper and Youth Development programs at seven Surf Lifesaving clubs (SLSC) throughout Australia. The sponsorship program is well aligned with Linfox’s commitment to safety and youth development.
Trigg Island SLSC, in Western Australia, recently held their Rise Up (15-17 year olds) and Toad (13-14 year olds) camps that are sponsored by Linfox. The four-day camps offer youngsters a wide range of skill-building activities to encourage further development within Surf Lifesaving.
Elouera SLSC, in New South Wales, recently launched its Surf Sports Academy, a comprehensive training program open to every Nipper (aged between eight and 14).The children receive expert training in core disciplines.
Steve Urquart, President of Elouera Nippers says, “Linfox’s support has been crucial in establishing the new academy and Linfox was instrumental in its creation.”
In Victoria, the Anglesea SLSC held a ‘Bronze Camp’ during which over 60 junior lifesavers graduated with their Surf Rescue Certificate. The camp, part of the Youth Development Program sponsored by Linfox, is designed specifically for youngsters to gain their Surf Lifesaving Bronze Medallion.
