Nipper Membership
The junior section of Waveney Surf Lifesaving Club is called "Nippers" and is for children aged 7-13. Using the Surf Life Saving Great Britain (SLSGB) Nipper Lifesaver Pathway, participants will receive regular training that builds their confidence in the water and gives them the skills and knowledge to keep themselves and their friends safe at the beach. As well as learning these valuable skills, Nippers can build their strength and fitness, make some great friendships and have lots of fun!
​
Nippers will receive a Nipper Lifesaver Logbook to track their progress and can earn certificates and awards on their journey to becoming Nipper Lifesavers!
