Between those flags, we draw a line in the sand: everyone who crosses it should enter and leave the water safely.
Albany SLSC also extend their patrol operations beyond the red and yellow flags and provide volunteer patrolling services from Midds to Surfers beach.
Our community safety is paramount. Each season, our volunteer services deliver first aid, emergency care (including rescues) and surf safety information to the public.

Event Details
Run weekly with comp points for youth & elected seniors.
THIS IS OUR AWAY BEACH WEEKEND. Check out the RIP for more information.
Sunday 7:30am – 8:30am
A 3-part structure replicated each week consisting of Water, Beach and Relay/Team activities, with a rotating focus and even overall coverage of the main carnival competition formats. Seniors and masters may elect to participate in an open ‘senior’ club championship points system which are tallied through the year to reward consistency and performance. This is a no-pressure, no-obligation initiative to maximise participation, but young ‘seniors’ and youth ‘cadets’ are likely to respond well to the continuation of a points system and indeed is generally a club expectation.
This week: Swim + Board + Spring + Flags
