World Champion Club – how good is it to be able to say that again! Overall Point Score: Maroochydore 706 Northcliffe 569 Currumbin 452Congratulations to everyone involved in the Lifesaving World Championships 2018 campaign (LWC2018) including athletes, management, parents and carers, sponsors and supporters. Thank you to our major sponsor WestFund Health Insurance.For the record, Maroochydore claimed the overall Youth pointscore by 137 points over Northcliffe with Currumbin in third place. In doing so, we won 9 Gold, 10 Silver and 5 Bronze medals and set three Australian records. With over 90 clubs competing, LWC2018 was the largest youth competition conducted since it was introduced back in 2012.On their way to winning the overall Youth Title, Maroochydore also claimed the ocean competition with a hard-fought 15 point victory over Northcliffe with Newport in third place and then in the pool to complete the campaign by comprehensively winning the pool competition by 122

points over second-placed Currumbin and Northcliffe in third. Maroochydore women

also took out the overall pool competition with the men fourth place whilst in the ocean Maroochydore men finished second place and the women in third. Maroochydore was also represented by a small but very competitive Open Team. Tiarnee Massie and Ally Clarke won a Silver medal in the Open Women’s Board Rescue, and a full list of all medallists are provided in the results section. The Youth and Open Teams that represented Maroochydore at LWC2018 were:Youth Team Matt Palmer (co-captain), Tiarnee Massie, Jamie Cotter, Hayden Cotter, Ruben Zikarsky, Summer Short, Kurt Lorme, Steven Coombes, Samuel Short, Maddy Howe, Tamarind Wilden-Sneddan, Fraser Toon, Joseph McMenamin, Sarah McGrath, Phoebe Wills-Grace, Hamarna Williams, Oliver Monaghan, Alicia Fay, Adam Palmer. Open Team Alyce Burnett (co-captain), Jordan Wood, Cassie Lee, Ally Clarke, Kalani Kliese, Brianna Massie. Management, Room Captains and Supporters Nathan Greig, Danny Short, John Baxter, Nathan McGrath, Liam Short, Rob Elford , Kara Wills-Grace, Todd Grace, Deb Toon, Rob Palmer, Wendy McMenamin, Julie Lorme, Kylie McGrath, Judy Monaghan, Nicole Short, Julie Clarke.This outstanding result continues the resurgence of Maroochydore as a serious surf sports contender coming on the back of its Under 17 pointscore victory at the 2018 Aussies in Perth and continued that trend through to the recent 2019 Aussies. It also marks a return to the World Championship podium for the Club which last won the Open World Championships in 2000 and 2002. With Club stocks on the rise, we are setting our sights on the 2020 World Championships in Italy where we will defend our Youth World Title and with growth in our Under 19 and Open athletes we will challenge for a podium finish for the Open World Championship.

It gives me great pleasure to present the Annual Report for the 2018-2019 season. Our members have collectively upheld our strong tradition of serving the community through the provision of lifesaving services.On Monday the 6th of May we finished our last patrol for the season, after eight months of patrolling our beach. Maroochydore’s surf lifesavers officially brought the red and yellow flags down for the 2018/19 season, with no lives lost between the flags. A proud tradition upheld for 103 seasons. An achievement that every Maroochydore Club Member and Supporter should be very proud of.On behalf of the Club’s Management team, I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every Patrol Member for their outstanding efforts over the past eight months. With many challenges along the way, our dedicated team of patrolling members upheld our motto of vigilance and service.

Lifesaving Achievements• Total Patrolling Hours this Season: 12,172 • Incidents / Rescues: 25• Preventative Actions: 1,796

Membership• Total Active Members: 1005• Total Patrolling Members: 350 (Rostered Volunteers)

I would like to thank Mal Pratt and Ralph Devlin AM QC for their tireless work across the season providing members with advice and direction in their role as Life Governors.Also thank you to all other Life Members who have contributed throughout the season, to every Member and Supporter for their work at our surf carnivals, gratitude to our coaches for the time taken to train and mentor our competitors, and a big thank-you to every trainer and assessor who gave their time to upskill and educate our new and existing members. Our membership is broad and diverse, and everyone plays a key role – from doing patrols on our beach, fundraising, coaching our members, water safety for our nippers, officiating, administration, training and assessing members for competence; and providing operational support during rescues and searches.Members understand the importance of ‘vigilance and service’, and how many rescues are avoided through the early intervention and preventative actions of our patrolling members.

Finally, thank you to every member who participated on a Club Committee or Board, your representation of our membership is vital for continued success. Our highlights of the season started on the 22nd of September

with the first day of patrol starting and the opening of the Robbie Thomasson Room that afternoon, and two weeks later the Matty Barclay Room.The Senior Room is named after Robbie Thomasson one of our Great Champions from the 1990s. Robbie joined Maroochydore SLSC as a Cadet in 1989-90 season, from Central Queensland.Coached by his father Cyril, Robbie won the following prestigious Australian Surf Lifesaving Championship Gold Medals;1993 Under 18 Ironman Championship 1994 Open Taplin Relay Championship1996 Open Surf Race Championship1996 Kellogg’s Nutri-Grain Ironman Series ChampionRobbie tragically died in a car accident only five months later, in August 1996. Robbie will be forever remembered for his Black Swan ‘Loyalty, Guts and Glory.The ‘Matthew Barclay Room’ is the name of our Youth area, remembering another young Champion of Maroochydore who had been part of our Junior Activities group for many years.Matty Barclay joined Maroochydore SLSC Nippers in 2009-10 season.From the beginning Matty impressed as a young lifesaver and athlete of exemplary character.In 2010 Matty won the under 12 Surf Race at Nippers States.At the 2011 Aussies, Matty became our then-youngest Aussies medallist earning Bronze in the under 15 Male Surf Teams at the age of 13 years and 5 months.Matty died in Aussies competition on 28 March aged 14 years and 5 months. Matty is greatly missed and forever young. Matty made his short life wide.Our competitive team result at the World Titles held in South Australia, where the Club won the under 19 World Championships. Aussies – placed a credible 4th with a very small team mainly made up with our youth winning 12 Gold medals.Tiarnee Massie, Adam and Matt Palmer qualified for the Nutri-Grain Series.The celebrations of the 50th Anniversary of the Nippers and the Club New Olympian Board on the second floor near the steps.Improved Club FacilitiesA number of improvements have been made over the season; including the renovation of the Youth Room and the opening of a Senior Room for the enjoyment and use of these member groups. Installation of new air conditioners and an improved

extraction system to Male and Female dorms and bathrooms has greatly improved these facilities. Members who stay in the dorms are finding the upgrades a great improvement.New doors to the beach, new boat and ski rack, new racking for IRB storage. A bank of member lockers was purchased and installed in the breezeway so members could keep their belongings in a safe& secure place when they were patrolling or enjoying club activities.A commercial coffee machine was purchased for the canteen, and every Sunday morning JA Volunteers are pumping out coffees to keep our members going.On the recommendation of the Club Auditors expenditure was set aside to update and expand the security systems and more CCTV’s have been installed, as well as an upgrade of the Club’s IT server. Replacement of the 15-year old phone system has been made, and the new phone system has a number of automated enhancements.In May, work is being done to repair the southern awning outside the lady’s toilets/dorms where water has damaged the support beams. Also, construction of lunchrooms and offices for the Supporters Club staff has commenced. It is expected to take 2-3 months to complete this work.CarnivalsAs a club we successfully held two Carnivals - Rebel Sports Junior Carnival, and Murphy Homes Maroochy Classic Youth and Open Carnival.Both events were a great success through the dedication of our tideless workforce.

Shimoda ExchangeMaroochydore SLSC and the Shimoda LSC Exchange program has been another great season for both our Clubs with a great cultural experience for all members that are involved. This programme offers so much for our members I hope it continues to run for many years into the futureSponsorshipsTo our Grants Officer Kim Musgrove who also is a Radio Officer, thank-you for your tireless work and securing funding for this season for:1 x Tractor, 1 x IRB, 2 x IRB Motors, 3 x Rescue Boards.The Maroochy Supporters Club have again been the biggest sponsor to Maroochydore SLSC, it’s been a team effort during the year making sure that we have a good cash flow going to our lifesaving arm.I would also like to personally thank all our sponsors without your kind support and donations we could not provide the support to our local community. GovernanceTo all Board and Committee Members the Club would not run without all your tireless work behind the scenes. To be a member of any Board is both time consuming and challenging at the same time. I would like to encourage all members to come on board and make decision in the best interest and the future of our Club the Black Swan nominations for a board or committee position, have your say and make a difference.To General Manager Jack Orr and the Lifesaving 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 from a committed team. I hope all members have a great offseason and I will be looking forward to seeing you at the start of the new season.See you on the beachSteve Wieland.

Life MemberAnne Dun

Anne Dun joined Maroochydore SLSC as a Nipper mum in December 1993.

After a stint as Nipper Deputy Chair in 1996-97 Season, and Nipper Clothing Steward 1997-98, Anne began a long period of involvement in the administrative side of the Senior Club. Anne’s involvement continues 20 years later.

Anne gained her First Aid and Resuscitation Awards in 2002 and 2003.

For four seasons between 2002 and 2006 Anne was a regular member of the Club March Past Team, coached by Paul Boulton, between 2002 and 2006, during which time a State Championship Bronze medal was a highlight.

From 2000-2004 Anne was a valued member of the Board of Administration and Membership and Chair of a very active Social Committee. She continued as Chair of the Social Committee for a further two seasons, until 2006.

In the 2004-05 Season Anne was awarded the JFH Murray Memorial Trophy for ‘Best Masters Club Person’, at a time when Master’s activities were at an all-time high. In the following Season Anne was the recipient of the Bronze Certificate commemorating 25 years of Women in Lifesaving.

By the 2005-06 Season it is fair to say that Anne, supported so well by her husband Peter, was an indispensable part of Maroochydore Club life, seen at every Club event, toiling in the engine room and directing traffic. Anne’s easy-going yet focused approach to getting the job done won her great respect and admiration.

In the 2006-07 Season, Anne Dun was awarded the Ruth Williamson Memorial Trophy for ‘Most Outstanding Female Member’, a very worthy recipient.

In 2006-07 and 2007-08 Anne carried out the exacting task of Nipper Club Registrar, before commencing another 7-year stint as a member of the Board of Administration and Membership.

Then from 2010-2015 Anne added a role with the Board of Marketing and Promotion. So her last 5 years in Club administration saw Anne in the somewhat unusual dual roles on two separate Club Boards.

At the end of the 2014-15 Season, Anne had clocked up almost 20 consecutive years of conspicuous involvement and conspicuous service to Maroochydore SLSC.

You might think that to be a fine end to her loyal contribution to our great Club, but Anne remains a willing worker on many of the big occasions; in the 2016 Aussies workforce, for example, and most recently in the canteen for the 2018 State Surf Life Saving Championships.

Anne has also supported the Shimoda Exchange Programme over many years.

Together with her husband Peter, Anne Dun has managed a deep involvement with Maroochydore Club over 22 Seasons, truly exceptional service worthy of her election as the Club’s 86th Life Member and our 5th Female Life Member.

Life MemberTracey Layton

Tracey Layton joined the Club on 17 October 1999 and gained her Bronze Medallion on 12 December 1999. She did not ‘muck around’ - less than two months’ training to be a qualified lifesaver proved to be typical of this no-nonsense, ‘let’s-get-on-with-it’ Member.

Little did Tracey know it, but soon she was on a collision course with her soon-to-be husband Ian, whom she met at the Club, and of course, married. Thus began years of involvement of them both in Surf Club life, especially in the IRB section, where both Tracey and Ian have been of enormous Service to our Club and its Members.

In 2002, in only her fourth season of patrolling, Tracey took on the role of Patrol Vice Captain - a role she carried out for 15 consecutive years. If there is a more impressive record of continuous active patrolling service, it would be rare! As if to underline the point, Tracey is only one of three Maroochydore lifesavers to receive the ‘Australian Government Record’ in recognition of her service of 15 years of in excess of 30 hours Patrol. (For the record, the other recipients are Life Members Narelle Souter and Peter Lucas).

In the 2001-02 and 2013-14 Seasons, Tracey was awarded the Brian Davey Shield for ‘Best Senior Clubperson’.

In the 2002-03 and 2003-04 Seasons, Tracey was the recipient of the Ken Neil Trophy for ‘Most Outstanding Senior Patrol Person’.

In 2004-05 Season Tracey received the ‘Bronze Certificate for Women in Lifesaving 25 years’, and followed that up with the highest Club Award - the Ruth Williamson Memorial Trophy for ‘Most Outstanding Female Member’.

Between 2002 and 2008 Tracey represented our Club at Branch level as the Sunshine Coast Branch Lifesaving IRB Officer.

In 2009-10 Tracey achieved her 10-year Patrol Award.

But it is in IRB at Club level that Tracey Layton has most indelibly left her mark. As the assistant to husband Ian, Life Member 2015, Tracey has trained many IRB Drivers and Crewies for the Club. Her dedication to the job and her unfailing courtesy and good humour have earned Tracey universal respect.

And it is no wonder that at a mature age Tracey has been sworn in as an Officer in the Queensland Police Service. Shift work has meant that Tracey is not as flexible in the time she can devote to Lifesaving, but her past outstanding service indicates she will be a staunch and loyal Life Member long into the future.

Our 87th Life Member, our 6th Female Life Member, Tracey Layton.

Life MemberNick Clatworthy

Nicholas Kenneth Clatworthy joined Maroochydore SLSC in 1980. Nick gained his Bronze Medallion at Wanda SLSC in 1964 and was an Active Member at South Maroubra SLSC before transferring to Queensland.

For 28 consecutive years, Nick has been a contributor to active patrolling, every club workforce required, surf boat competition, significant club sponsorship - you name it, Nick was there. Believe it or not, his first major assignment was as a reliable member of the magnificent 1980 Aussies Workforce at Maroochydore. It was as if he had been in our Club forever, even then. And he is one of a select band of loyal members who claimed a place also in the 2016 Aussies Workforce, 36 years later!

A new generation of Club Members perhaps would not appreciate that every year from 1977 to 2000 our Club staged the biggest and best club-run surf carnivals in Australia. For most of those 23 years the carnival - sponsored by East-West Airlines, later Channel 10 and later still Just Jeans - was televised around Australia. Again, Nick was one of a select few who can claim to have been a Senior Member of that Workforce in at least 20 of those wonderful carnivals. Only serious beach erosion at Maroochydore in 2000-2001 brought that series to an end. Nick’s contribution was significant to the success of those events.

Nick’s wife Gerry was also part of the 1980 Aussies effort. Gerry was one of about half a dozen women who hosted the VIP area for the weekend. Later that same year, women members were finally admitted to Surf Lifesaving. We like to think our glamorous and welcoming VIP Workforce were a major influence on that historic decision. Just putting it out there, acknowledging Gerry’s loyal support for our Club in the same period.

In 1981-82 Season Nick was part of the Most Efficient Patrol, winners of the Stratton Memorial Trophy. Nick gained his Instructors Certificate on 10 October 1982. In the same season he was again a member of the Most Efficient Patrol.

In 1983-84 Season Nick was Vice-Captain of the winning Patrol once again, making it an impressive hat-trick of Awards, at a time when our Club was on a significant re-boot from the struggling 70s to the magnificent 90s.

In 1985 Nick was granted Long Service Membership after 21 years of active patrol service across three Surf Clubs. He continued as a proficient lifesaver, however, for many years and often patrolled when called upon.

Nick gained the 25-year SLSA Service Award in the 1997-98 Season.

Another more recent involvement for Nick has been in the Workforce for each Golf Day held by the Club. This consistent involvement demonstrates that as he gets older,

Nick’s support is increased instead of decreasing.

Nick and Gerry Clatworthy are long-term Sponsors of Maroochydore SLSC. Their generosity saw them installed as ‘Gold’ level Sponsors in the 2014-15 Season.

Nick has also served for many years on the Mal Pratt Foundation, where his wise counsel and experience were valued.

Yet another Clatworthy involvement is Nick’s regular and sustained commitment to the Shimoda Club Exchange, which happens every Christmas at Maroochydore.

It is difficult to imagine an area of Club life where Nick has not been involved over the past four decades.

Nick and his wife Gerry remain fully engaged in Maroochydore Club Life until their passing early this year. That loyalty and sustained service over almost 30 years sees Nick Clatworthy recommended for election as our 85th Life Member.

Board of Administrationand Membership ReportNarelle Souter, Director

On behalf of the Management Committee of Maroochydore SLSC it gives me great pleasure to present the 103th Annual Report for the 2018/2019 season and the financial statements and balance sheet for the year ending 30 April 2019 of the Maroochydore Surf Life Saving Club (SLSC).

Membership numbers for the last 3 seasons have been: CATEGORY 2018-19 2017-2018 2016-2017Probationary 2 0 14Junior Activity (5-13 yrs.) 280 286 263Cadets (13-15 yrs.) 19 63 72Active Junior (15-18 yrs.) 69 43 29Active (18+ yrs.+) 139 173 140Award (radio, First Aid) 53 45 24Reserve Active 3 2 3Long Service 102 105 85Past Active 17 2 4Associate 171 188 252Life Members 64 62 53Honorary Vice President 144 143 128Leave / Restricted 0 2 1

1,063 1,114 1,068

In the season the Club’s Active 18+ membership has declined by 34 members, but it is encouraging to see the Active Junior membership increase by 26 – a result which assists to hold patrol numbers. In the forthcoming season the Boards of Administration and Membership, Board of Surf Sports and Junior Activities will be actively working on retention initiatives for our youth, and the recruitment of more members.

For another season our members have achieved outstanding results in all levels of involvement of lifesaving. I would like to congratulate all patrolling members who give so much to our Club and provide an essential service to the local community. Congratulations also go to the Surf Sports Section which achieved outstanding results at the Youth Aussie Titles.

Each year the Board of Administration and Management work with the other Boards and interested parties to provide opportunities for our club members (of all ages) to attend personal development events. As has been the norm for the last few years, this year has passed quickly with as many membership development opportunities being offered to our members as possible.

In October Kylie McGrath chaperoned a small group of Maroochydore Surf Life Savers to attend the ‘Parliamentary Friends of Lifesaving” gathering at Government House. The Parliamentary Friends of SLSQ is a bi-partisan group for Members of Parliament to support, promote and actively engage with the Queensland Surf Life Saving Clubs. Club support of this event helps raise our profile with important elected officials.

Later in the month of Oct, the Sunshine Coast PULSE camp was held, and Maroochydore sent 2 representatives Laura Ioverio and Damon Nixon. Both Laura and Damon found this camp an extra-ordinary opportunity to develop their on-the-beach lifesaving skills. The camp is a great step up for members who are existing Patrol Captains or have aspirations to take on that role in the future.

The annual SLSQ / UQ Leadership Excellence Program was conducted in November and our Youth Development Officer, Jonty Dodson and Laura Ioverio both joined 30 peers for 3 days of intensive development program.

Our youth are a talented bunch and have been recognised at Branch and State camps as committed future leaders and positive role models for camp participants. At the State Leadership Camp, Jonty was awarded a $2,000 UQ Bursary for displaying Leadership skills amongst his peers at the camp. Camp Commando was Laura Loverio’s first camp as a Leader and her team won the overall Camp Championship. A fantastic result for Laura.

At the start of 2018 Maroochydore was well represented at Camp Commando where 4 Maroochydore Leaders / Mentors were selected (Tara Patrick, Sarah McGrath, Laura Loverio and Claudia Korac); and 9 Participants attended (Stella Kay, Khia Wills-Grace, Amy Short, Kiara Rychvalsky, Selena McGrath, Matilda Jarrott, Mackenzee Hoger, Liam-Bailey Rose, Isabella Stark).

The annual Youth Ball moved to May this season, and Kawana was the host club. I had the pleasure of being the bus driver to the event and enjoyed listening to the vocal range of 12 youth on each trip. Despite my ears bleeding for a couple of days post the event, it was worth it to see how much our youth enjoyed the night. Everyone got in the spirit and dressed to impress. Morgan Williams received recognition as a ‘Valuable Youth Member’ at the Ball. The night ended with lots of dancing and singing.

Two club members, Ben Colston and Morgan Williams, attended the inaugural Lifesaving Development Program held by Sunshine Coast Branch. This program has been run successfully for many years in South Australia, Victoria and Tasmania and is an experiential learning program where participants can gain 3 awards in 5 days. The program is ‘hands-on’, as realistic as possible scenarios are offered which can be confronting at times. Below is a report from attendee, Morgan Williams, on her experiences at the camp.

Queensland’s first Lifesaving Development Program was held on the 14th-19th of May this year and boy what a week! I went into the program not really knowing what to expect and it pretty much stayed that way throughout the entire camp, as each ‘patrol’ group anxiously waited for the inevitable scenarios.

The 19 participants were split up into 4 groups which were rostered on to deal with a variety of first aid scenarios; from fin chops to gas explosions, we were all usually caught off-guard. The scenarios we experienced were made to be as realistic as possible, created through fake blood and makeup, actors and props like smashed cars to create a car crash scene and an ambulance coming to aid. Currimundi Recreational Camp definitely had their hands full with our unusual group, as we marched around the grounds lugging first-aid kits, spinal boards, oxygen and of course our loud and bubbly energy. Through the late nights, less than satisfactory food and intense situations, the group connected in ways I haven’t experienced at other camps and lifelong friendships were formed. Having such a small group allowed for us to really get to know one another unlike the larger programs offered throughout the year. Despite having all the awards offered, it was still extremely beneficial for me, as the camp also worked on building leadership and communication skills needed for day to day life. I would definitely recommend the Development camp to anyone looking to get their First-aid, ART, Crewies or Drivers certificates but also to anyone looking for an amazing week with an amazing group of people. -Morgan Williams-

ADMIN – The job of entering our historical membership records into a safe data storage system is close to being finalised. It’s been a big task but more than 80% of Membership Cards have been scanned and uploaded to the Members SurfGuard account. Annual Reports back in 2016 scanned, and historical information between 1953-2018 entered. Many thanks to Peter Rigby who has cross checked records for accuracy to ensure all pages were captured.

FUNDRAISING – Two fundraisers were held during the season, September saw Melody’s Drag Queen Bingo return to the Club and was well supported by the local community. This is a fun, irreverent night with lots of laughs. In December a small team of our members manned the Bunnings BBQ – a massive day of sausage sales. No slips and trips even though the onions were on top. Massive thanks to Jonty Dodson, Bob Orr, Kirk

Williamson, Steve Ellwood, Franzi Strasser, Josh Spencer, Morgan Williams, Jo & Kiara Kliese, Andrew & Toni Pettigrew, Kara Wills & Todd Grace and everyone who bought sausages.

CONSTITUTION – Consultation with the membership has continued this season to finalise the revised Constitution for endorsement at the AGM. The last major re-write of the Club’s Constitution was in 1997. Changes in the Associations Incorporation Act 1997 and other reference Acts has impacted on the validity of the current document. Among the changes incorporated the revised SLSA membership categories which reflect in Surfguard, inclusion of year dates for patrol, membership and competition purposed to make the document ‘current’ to 2020 and beyond. Thank you to all Boards for their input and comment, and to Ralph Devlin AM and Glynn Topfer for their review and recommendations. Once the Constitution is endorsed, the process of adopting the re-written By-Laws will be finalised.

To all members who have undertaken office bearer positions for Maroochydore I wish to extend my thanks. These people work often behind the scenes to ensure that our Club operates at the highest standard.

It has been an honour to work with the Board of Directors who represent the values of the Club and work to achieve not only the overall goals of the Club, but are professional, effectual and supportive individuals.

Thank you to the officers on the Board of Administration and Membership – Jonty Dodson, Kirk Williamson, Katrina Sweet and Kerry Taylor and thanks also to the members who have come along as Visitors to share their ideas on improvement for all things Membership – Kara Wills, Claudia Korac, Franzi Strasser and Josh Spencer. It has been a real pleasure to have a few laughs and get on with the work we’ve done this season.

Additionally, I wish to thank Jack, Lauren, Chelsea and Jodie who have assisted me throughout the season. Your contributions to the club are invaluable. Your champions.

The Clubs YEP Program this season has successfully held bi-monthly activities and events for our members, included a bowling and movie night, go kart racing and our annual laser tag with the Shimoda crew.

Participation at the Youth Camps this season including two BREAKA Camps and Camp Commando, at which all our Members who attended represented themselves and the Club at a very high level. At the two BREAKA Camps the Club had six amazing participants partake in activities where they had the chance to develop their Lifesaving, Leadership and Social Skills with members from other Clubs across the State.

At Camp Commando the Club was also greatly represented with four Leaders and ten Nippers taking part in the Branch held Camp and attained these new skills.

Representatives for the senior age groups this season, were Damon Nixon and Laura Ioviero who attended the Pulse Camp, a scenario-based camp where participants had the chance to use their skills to respond to a major rescue incident. There was also the LEP State Program held down

in Brisbane where Laura Ioviero and myself participated in some fun and challenging activities that challenged us both on a physical and emotional level.

In all, there were a lot of fun times had this year for all that had the chance to participate in Youth Development Programs this season. I would like to thank everyone that helped this season, whether it be a Leader on a camp or a Parent helping to drive the Nippers to a YEP event, and of course the BOAM that has helped me coordinate my role in this fantastic Club of ours to the best of my ability.

We had another great year of stretching and strengthening this year at our Wednesday late afternoon classes. The group continues to be based around a strong loyal bunch who just have it now as part of their weekly routine.

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.

We NEED SOME NEW MEMBERS please – we plan to mix it up a bit more this year with new exercises and ongoing stretches

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 run multifactorial exercise class overlooking our beautiful beach at no cost to members. You are crazy if you’re not involved.

Fourteen new beneficiaries, all referred by The Smith Family, joined our numbers following the Annual Information Afternoon Tea held in August, and as a result we had twenty-four registered beneficiaries on our books for the start of Season 2018-2019, a record number.

Five of those new beneficiaries were able to immediately commence activities within the Junior Activities Program, and have remained involved throughout the season, whilst the remaining nine have undertaken learn to swim/swim training with a view to becoming involved in Season 2019-2020.

Unfortunately, a small number of existing beneficiaries (Three) have since dropped out of the Foundation’s program for varying reasons.

The highlight of the season without a doubt has been the progress of one of our longer-term Foundation beneficiaries who has been a Club Member since Season 2014-2015, and whom was chosen to participate as a member of the Maroochydore Team in the 2018 Shimoda Program, travelling to Shimoda as part of the Club’s lifesaving and cultural exchange program.

The same member has also become the first beneficiary of the Mal Pratt Youth Development Foundation/University of the Sunshine Coast Scholarship, and at the time of writing is enrolled full time in her first year of a Bachelor of Paramedic Science at USC. She will continue her involvement as a Patrolling Member of Maroochydore SLSC during the period of her studies, and will no doubt give back to the community over many years in her role as a paramedic.

A classic example of how the Foundation providing disadvantaged youth of our community with opportunity through Maroochydore SLSC, can ensure they become a valuable part of the community in which they live.

One of the Club’s ‘must attend’ community events on the Sunshine Coast, the Foundation’s second Annual Mid-Year Golf Day, with Port City Airconditioning as the events major sponsor, was held in August 2018 and again proved a successful fundraising event for the Foundation.

A big thank you to all who participated/assisted on the day including Foundation Committee Members Peter Aiken and Phil Lyons who along with Peter Dun ensured the novelty hole provided a few laughs, as well Nobby Clarke entertaining all (including the XXXX Girls) on the XXXX Hole, whilst Peter Carroll and Paul O’Brien provided valuable assistance selling raffle tickets and distributing cold drinks on the Port City Airconditioning sponsored first tee. The Old Master Michael Rogan again ‘did his thing’ at presentations which were superbly co-ordinated by Marketing Manager Jodie Crowther.

Also, great to see Foundation benefactor Mal Pratt doing the rounds and personally thanking players and particularly sponsors for their involvement/contribution to a worthy cause.

On a sad note, former Foundation committee member and Golf Day Co-ordinator Nick Clatworthy was unable to attend the day due to ill health and he unfortunately passed away earlier this year. It is the Foundation’s intention to ensure Nick is appropriately remembered at future Foundation Golf Days.

We look forward to again providing opportunity for the disadvantaged youth of the community in Season 2019-2020 and beyond.

It is my privilege as General Manager of both Maroochydore Surf Life Saving Club and Maroochydore Surf Life Saving Supporters Association 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 immediately recognised that trading conditions on the Sunshine Coast are not positive. Given the tourism-based trading trends that dictate business efficacy within the hospitality sector in our region, consistent trading will always prove difficult. Combine this factor with the over-saturation of licenced venues within the area (including some of the region’s largest venues being within walking distance) and current economic uncertainty, the problems presented to community clubs such as ours become abundantly clear.However, despite the complex nature of our trading environment, the Supporters Club has once again proven itself capable by providing the Life Saving Club with funds in excess of $900,000. This funding has not only empowered our members to fulfil our public service obligations, but has also assisted in the myriad of other programs which make Maroochydore great.In short, it has been a year rich with success for Maroochydore, from sporting achievements (World Youth Champions, 31 Open Aussie-Title Medals and 2nd Overall at our own Murphy Homes Carnival) to lifesaving excellence (25 rescues and 1796 preventative actions).In addition to these remarkable achievements obtained by our members, please find below a summarised listing of some of our Club’s undertakings from the 2018-2019 season.

• The redevelopment of existing member facilities;o The creation of the Robert ‘Robbie’ Thomasson

Senior Room and Matthew ‘Matty’ Barclay Youth Room;Redevelopment consisted of creating two

spaces for utilization by club members in both official and social settings.

This project involved the replacement of all windows, procurement of new furniture, re-sealing of the existing flooring and the implementation of significant design features.

o The replastering and soft refurbishment of both dormitories as well as senior bathroom facilities.

• The procurement of significant lifesaving equipment throughout the season, so as to ensure the continued high standard of public service offered by Maroochydore Surf Club;

o A CAN-AM Defenders SSVo A Thundercat IRB, named for Life Member Peter

Lucaso Numerous smaller items including rescue boards,

mannequins, IRB motors etc.• A number of projects have been completed in relation

to safety, that being of both Club Members as well as Club assets;o The replacement of both beach-side roller doors

which had been heavily affected by environmental conditions to the point of becoming potentially hazardous.Both doors have been set for replacement

with lightweight-yet-durable aluminium alternatives which will prove durable, user-friendly and secure.

o The installation of hoist systems to allow for the convenient and economic storage of IRBs.

o The completion of the CCTV rollout through member facilities, resulting in expanded coverage, longer storage and a higher quality image.

• Looking further at the concept of safety and efficiency, the Supporters Club has completed a major redevelopment of the existing scullery facilities;o Previous scullery facilities were inadequate to

accommodate for the volume of trade now being undertaken by the Supporters Club catering department.These facilities were not only impractical

as a working environment, but also raised potential concerns in relation to safety if they were permitted to further deteriorate.

o The basis of the project involved the complete disassembly of the existing scullery facility as well as the adjoining offices and the subsequent removal of the dividing wall, doubling the space available for utilization.

o A secondary pot washer was procured, along with significant bench space, shelving, sink facilities and garbage-control systems.

o Prior to this project, the western façade of the building would regularly suffer from water damage caused by internal leaking from the scullery facilities. To complete this project, all walls have been sheeted with stainless steel and the floors re-sealed; therefore finally alleviating this problem which had persisted for several years.

• Significant alterations have been made to existing

General Manager’s ReportJack Orr

promotional strategies;o Ineffective mid-week entertainment has been

removed.o Two weekly poker games and a stylised trivia

game have been introduced to the venue’s entertainment rotation, specifically targeting what were constant low points in trade.

o The standard members-draw structure has been overhauled to allow for targeted re-enforcement of what would be typically weaker trading periods.

• As is the circumstance with most hospitality venues within Queensland, a large focal point of ensuring financial viability rests upon the maintenance of current gaming facilities.o Over the past 12 months, eight new Electronic

Gaming Machines (EGMs or Pokies) have been obtained.

o In addition to EGM replacement, an aggressive game-change policy has been undertaken resulting in no less than 20 game changes taking place over the past twelve months, most of which have come at little-to-no cost as a result of supplier negotiations.Many of these changes have been

accompanied by hardware upgrades, resulting in EGMs which would have been designated obsolete receiving a several-year extension on their service life.

o The existing gaming stools, which had seen many years of service, have been completely replaced over the past twelve months with an aesthetically pleasing alternative, designed to provide patrons with optimal comfort.

o A number of alterations to the room layout, as well as the additions of stylized screening, have allowed for an increase not only to the areas aesthetic appeal, but also to the level of privacy afforded to patrons.

o Alterations to the Club’s loyalty program has made it more accessible to new patrons, ensuring rewards are fairly distributed as well as encouraging growth to the existing basis of regular patrons.

o A Cash Redemption Terminal (CRT) has been procured, allowing the venue to shift from labour intensive manual payments, to card-based transactions within the gaming room with a projected saving to wages in excess of $80,000p.a.

The results of the aforementioned advancements can be clearly seen from the results obtained by the Maroochydore Surf Life Saving Supporters Association at the recent Clubs Queensland Awards for Excellence 2019 which draws upon clubs of all forms (Surf Clubs, RSLs, Leagues Clubs etc) across the entire State.

• Best Gaming Venue Queensland – Onsite inspection score of 100%

• Best Dining Queensland – Onsite inspection of 94.93%

• Overall Site Inspection – 96.05%

• Best Young Manager Queensland (Jack Orr) – 4th Overall, with a gap of 1.5points between 4th and 1st position.

In closing, I’d like to take this opportunity to recognise several key contributors, without whom all that has been achieved over the past twelve months would not be possible.

First, to our Executive; the Committee Members, Life Members and Life Governors all of whom invest an inordinate amount of time to ensure Maroochydore Surf Club continues to thrive.

Secondly, the staff of both Maroochydore Surf Club and Maroochydore Surf Life Saving Supporters Association. In the aforementioned Clubs Queensland site inspections, the over-arching positive note listed by the judging panel was the notably high calibre of our staff. The hard work and positive ethos held by these men and women is truly remarkable.

Third, our Sponsors. Without the contributions made by our generous supporters it would not be possible for us to maintain the high standard of public service for which Maroochydore is known.

Finally, our Members; both active and social. The time and effort contributed by our Members, both on the beach and up on level-one, is above all else what allows Maroochydore Surf Club to be what it is today.

In closing, thank-you again to everyone for yet another fantastic year; here’s to another great season!

Now that the season has finished, we are all no doubt sitting down, breathing a big sigh of relief, and possibly thinking about next season which starts again in September. I wish. In many ways, this past season has been incredibly challenging but at the same time very rewarding for the achievements we have made.As you would all know we have trialled two Patrols as all day Patrols (Patrols 2 and 4). Patrol 2 has worked very well but Patrol 4 not so much and will return next season as a normal patrol, meaning it will be more challenging for me in developing the roster.Speaking of the roster, this season we saw lots of clashes with competitions and patrols. I am determined to sort out a solution in association with surf sports to overcome the issue but be aware that there will need to be patrol changes to accommodate the changes. More on that closer to next season. At the same time, there has been a small army of people, all volunteers, who have patrolled our beach every weekend and public holiday since September and as a result we can proudly boast that once again we have had no lives lost between the red and yellow flags. Thank you to all Patrolling Members. Without you we would not exist and without the regular patrols we would not be able to compete.This year we have seen a concentrated effort to upgrade our equipment with things like the new tractor that we now use to take equipment on and off the beach, a new SSV to replace the ageing ATVs we had, a new IRB, several new motors, several new rescue boards with a few more to come, new and additional training rashies, new jackets for patrols to wear when wet and or just cold, new flippers, (which have a tendency to go walkabout) and even things like the folding garage doors that replaced the old roller door. Next season we are being told that our radios will be replaced but until we know the details the current radios will continue in service.On top of all these things, Noel Furmage our Club Gear Steward has spent copious hours over the season servicing, repairing and replacing gear and equipment. Noel also did patrols as a Radio Officer and has done so for the last five or so years. Noel is moving on after this season and I personally want to say a big thank you to Noel and his family for their contribution over these past years. Mike Dwyer, our Club CTO for this season has done an extraordinary job in really pushing numbers through on various award courses such as First Aid and ART, as well as numerous other courses. The Skills Maintenance Program went well considering some of the conditions we had to deal with, and only a handful of members needing to do a late proficiency for various reasons. On the IRB front the IRB team headed by Drew Moles, myself, Ian Layton and Danni Driscoll managed to run six IRB courses over the season, three Drivers Courses, and three Crewie Courses. As a result of the additional numbers we now have an IRB Racing Team, something that we have

not had for at least SIX years so once again the emphasis on training, providing additional award courses is beginning to pay dividends. With the new tractor we have put through over 40 Members on the Tractor Induction to assist with movement of equipment on and off the beach. We did restrict Tractor Award to PC, VC, IRBD, IRBC, and selected others to ensure we had patrols and equipment movements all covered. On the last weekend of patrols, we also had a further SSV induction available on Sunday and Monday to give as many members as possible the opportunity to gain that award. My thanks to Drew, Layto, and Danni for their help and support, and particularly Mike for the enormous effort and contribution made. Phil Lyons has once again contributed as expected to maintain the first aid equipment and patrol as a First Aid Officer. Thanks Phil, (Grandad) for yet another successful season.Graham Davies once again very capably ran the Radio Officers’ position and ensured that each patrol had a radio operator in the tower, trained new recruits and generally maintained the radios that are part of our patrol obligations. Thanks, Graham, for your support and contribution.I should also recognise all our PCs who have made my task that much easier, with Narelle Souter and Warren (Bluey) Lee as PCs of our Masters Patrols, Bruce Morris, Danni Driscoll, Michael Walpole, Ollie Hoelscher, Sophie Urquhart, Drew Moles, Brad Kildey, Cody Surawski, Kevin Williams, Ben Ellwood, Greg McKenzie, and Graham Thomas all of whom supported the Club and led their patrols throughout the season. Sadly, Michael Walpole and Ben Ellwood will be relocating away from Maroochydore for work, so we are losing them as PCs. Bruce Morris has also decided to go sailing around the world for the next 3 or 4 years so he too will not be returning to patrol next season. Thank you one and all for your contribution and support, needless to say I am looking for people to step up and take on PC roles next season.I could not complete this report without thanking members on the Board of Lifesaving who have volunteered, heavens knows how many hours to make the club function, with an emphasis on the Board of Lifesaving, Nikki Chapman as Deputy Director, Drew Moles as IRB Captain, Phil Lyons as First Aid Officer, Graham Davies as Radio Officer, Noel Furmage as Club Gear Steward, Steve Ellwood as Club Safety Officer, Mike Dwyer as CTO, and Michelle Burnett as assistant CTO. Thank you one and all for all your support and dedication this season.Thank you lastly to those members who responded to calls and bulletin broadcasts for urgent patrols whilst we had many members away competing. It is heartening that I can make such calls and know that there are many members who are happy to assist when asked. Thank you for the opportunity to serve as Director of Lifesaving and Club Captain for the season. Whilst challenging it has also been quite rewarding.

I was very happy sitting in the background training, assessing and conducting Skill Maintenance Days. But taking on another position - well who would have thought! Anyway, it was a very satisfying season, although a very hectic one, juggling one thing or another. My greatest appreciation goes to the whole training team, now made up of trainers, assessors, water safety and skills maintenance endorsed members. I cannot thank all of you enough, particularly those who have helped with proficiencies (now Skills Maintenance Days). Over the past 20 years of conducting proficiencies, the demands of these days on our team have never been greater, and now technology is likely to be the new challenge next season.There are so many people now involved in the training team that I am reluctant to name individuals, but please know that you are greatly appreciated and respected by me and our Club members. So, thank you to each and every one of you! In addition to the awards punched out this season by you, the big advance for us was the addition of eight new qualified Trainers to the team and the current cohort of six members undertaking the Assessor’s Course. I thank ALAQ and the Sunshine Coast Branch of SLSQ for supporting our Club in achieving this but also supporting our request to provide the extra First Aid and Advanced Resuscitation courses to put more awards on our beach. Those skills and that knowledge are invaluable to any member, let alone a patrolling member, because you never know when they will be put to use saving a life - on patrol, during training, after hours, at work or at home.Thank you to Clive, the Boards of Lifesaving, Management and the Lifesaving Administration staff for making things happen! A big thank you to Michelle Burnett for coming on board as Deputy Chief Training Officer mid-season when I was struggling making ends meet travelling the State with work. One trainer (and gear steward) I will single out is Noel Furmage. Noel is having a “career break” from the Club. He says he is giving it away, but I reckon he just needs a season off! Irrespective, thank you Noel for the years of hard work and a very busy season. Finally, congratulations and thank you to all the new Award Members. Stay safe.

Once again, I am pleased to report that due to the diligence of our Patrolling Members, we didn’t have any problems this season with any of our life saving equipment during emergencies.

This was mainly due to the diligence in the checking of our resuscitation equipment prior to commencing your patrol to ensure that if 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 Classic, and Rebel Sports Junior Carnivals; they all were a great success and this was largely due to all the volunteers who gave up their time to assist, you do a great service to our Club.

I’m happy to be able to say that we didn’t experience any major emergencies during either of these carnivals but as always, it was comforting to know that we had competent First Aiders on standby in case.

I’d like to acknowledge a large donation of consumable items for the First Aid room from Alpha Packaging; a big thank you to the Kildey Family for their generosity.

In closing, I will take this opportunity to thank my fellow Board of Life Saving Members, for their support and dedication, 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 next season.

It has been a busy year for the IRB section, with every weekend requiring our services for Patrol, Junior Activities, and Water Safety at carnivals and events. This season we conducted three IRB Crew Courses with twenty-six new Crewies joining patrols and two IRB Drivers Courses with seven new Drivers attaining their qualifications. I would like to give a special thanks to Daniella Driscoll, Clive Herrald and Ian Layton who joined myself as trainers on these courses and the girls in the office for their support.

A special mention needs to go to Matt Chadwick, Jason Colston, Andrew Patrick, Andrew Brennan, Kalani Kliese, and also the external Club Assessors John Thorpe, and Andrew Priest from Kawana Waters Surf Club. I thank Mike Dwyer as CTO for all the assistance he has given the IRB Training section this season.There have been several key club members who have provided innumerable hours in the duck and their efforts are greatly appreciated. Our water-safety responsibilities included Senior and Junior Carnivals, and weekend patrols (including Nippers).As many of you may be aware, we commissioned a new IRB this season – Peter Lucas – which was greatly received by the Lucas family, friends and Club Members.We now have an IRB Racing Team currently training with Mudjimba Surf Club. This team made their debut at Coolum Beach on the 18th May and achieved good results in their first competition season.Overall, I have really enjoyed my third year as IRB Captain, and I would like to thank everyone who supported me and the rest of our members both during and out of the season. I look forward to next year.

Gear Steward’s ReportNoel Furmage

Thank you to all of our Radio Operators for the season. We had a minimum of subs and swaps between operators and each one was covered early and without fuss. Thank you also to Clive Herrald and the Board of Lifesaving for their support and encouragement this season and we look forward to seeing you all back on the beach in September.We have lost four operators this season. Amber Baker at the start of the season, Eric Rennex halfway though, Uwe Sinn and Noel Furmage at the end of the season. Noel’s retirement will be a great loss to the Club, as this season he took on the Gear Steward role and assisted with training.

On behalf of the Club to the Operators leaving, thanks for your service and commitment to keeping our beach safe.On the flip side, we welcomed four new Operators. Nathan and Tamie Moore, past Bronzies returning to the Club, and also with Brisbane Lifesaving. Josh Moore, also a past Bronzie returning and Aaron Clover, a Bronzie with Brisbane Lifesaving.The tower is in good nick, and was painted just before the start of this season. From a ghastly yellow to a nice shade of blue-grey, and all of the gear is in good condition, although we have had to replace a number of aerials this season.

It has been a great privilege to serve as the Club’s Gear Steward for the past two seasons, in which we have accomplished so much due to the fantastic help I’ve received from Administration Staff and Board of Lifesaving Members alike.Some of the highlights of the 2018-19 Season without a doubt is the purchase of the new Kubota Tractor, the new Can-Am Defender SSV, and two new Bennett Surf Rescue Boards.Thanks particularly go to Kim Musgrove for obtaining a grant for the Tractor, and to the Treasurer Andrew Patrick for finding funds for the new SSV. I would like to acknowledge the donation made by the Nambour Whattles Tennis Club, who provided us with funds to purchase Surf Rescue Board, numbers 17 and 18.We are traveling very well this season, with other new equipment purchased including IRB Life Jackets, Wet Weather Jackets, Battery Chargers and Rescue Tubes. These items of new equipment purchased during the season really sets us up well for the future.Rescue Boards are my only major issue as they are being damaged faster than they can be repaired. They take a lot of effort to repair damage caused by abrasion and cracking

from dragging and dropping whilst being used. I must thank David Shearer who has repaired so many and has now taught me how to do fibreglass repairs, that has made me no expert, but at least I’ve returned two boards to service with lots more to come.I will be retiring my services at the end of this season, as I move onto other things as well as travel. I would encourage anyone interested in taking on the role to step up and have a go. It is extremely rewarding to serve in a voluntary capacity and take on something challenging.Again, it has been a privilege to serve the Club over the past seven years (Gear Steward for two years and Radio Officer over five years) and I know the club will go from strength to strength, as it moves forward.To Clive Herrald and his team, I say a fond Au Revoir but not Goodbye as I will be calling in from time to time to say Gidday.

The Athol Nixon Memorial Trophy (Radio Operator of the Year)

This season the Radio Operator of the year was awarded to Noel Furmage. Aside from the tower duties and Surfcom, Noel had taken on the Gear Steward role and assisted with training this season. As mentioned previously, his retirement will be a loss to the Club. Good travels and all the best Noel.

The 2018-19 Season built on the outstanding results of the previous season and positioned our Surf Sports Program as one of the most successful programs in Australia.

But there is still a long way to go.

Maroochydore continues to produce outstanding surf sports athletes through our Nipper Program, and we are now starting to see these athletes move into the Under 19 ranks, and next season into the open ranks. Our Club does produce individual champions but more importantly our Club produces Champion Teams. Great team performances lead to great individual performances and we have seen that time and time again over the course of this season. The success of our program is now starting to attract new members which will build our depth and strengthen some areas of competition where we need to.

Season highlights, where do I start? There were so many across the season, but try these for starters:

• World Youth Lifesaving Champions – overall, ocean and pool!

• Nathan Greig - Surf Life Saving Queensland Coach of the Year award

• Matthew Palmer winning the U19 Coolangatta Gold• Hayden Cotter – 2 Gold, 2 Silver and 2 Bronze medals at

Open Aussies• Tiarnee Massie – 3 Gold and 1 Silver medals at Open

Aussies• Jamie Perkins – 3 Gold medals at Australian Youth

Championships• U19 Women – Queensland and Australian Board Relay

and Ski Relay Champions• U17 Men Clean Sweep – Individual Australian Gold

medallists in Ski and Board (Adam Palmer), Swim (Zachary Tabuai) and Iron (Joseph McMenamin)

• 4th Queensland Surf Lifesaving Championships pointscore

• 4th Australian Surf Lifesaving Championships pointscore with 10 Gold, 7 Silver and 13 Bronze medals

• 2nd Australian Pool Rescue Championships pointscore• Oceans6 Kellogg’s athletes - Tiarnee Massie, Matthew

Palmer and Adam Palmer with Maroochydore represented in all 6 rounds of the series

Our results at Aussies were most pleasing – with significantly lower competitive numbers than all the other top 6 Clubs, just a handful of Open athletes and without securing any beach section points we just missed 3rd place overall on the back of the Under 17 and Under 19 juggernaut.

With such a wealth of results we can sometimes miss the importance of seemingly innocuous actions or contributions from our teammates. For instance, Clayton Burnett who prepared for his semi-final of the Under 19 Beach Sprint at

Aussies by spending the morning dragging Matt Palmer out of the water in the heats, semi and final of the Under 19 Rescue Tube Rescue and was duly rewarded with an Aussies Silver medal. Then there was Jett Lancaster who gave up his Individual Board Race start to also help out the Under 19 Rescue Tube Rescue team, again being rewarded with an Aussies Silver medal. These little examples all contribute to a great team culture.

This season the Board of Surf Sports has worked on a range of initiatives aimed at achieving our long term strategic objective of winning the Australian Championships overall pointscore by 2023 and World Open and Youth Champions by 2024. Overall I think the Board has been moderately successful achieving some short term successes such as winning the World Youth Title two years earlier than expected - but we need to do more and more quickly - to mature our existing programs and systems to provide an environment where our surf sports athletes can excel, are recognised and promoted, and are supported throughout their surf sports pathway from Nippers to Opens. If we can do this we will retain our home-grown athletes and attract new members to our Club which ultimately provides an increase in the number of highly capable lifesavers.

One initiative that has produced positive outcomes is the Athlete Advisory Panel that was established at the start of the season. Thank you to Kerri Thomas, Clint Irwin and Alyce Burnett who have assisted a number of athletes across the season. I hope to expand this initiative next season.

This season we have also resurrected the Maroochydore board riding section – aka the Fibreglass Cowboys. This section provides another option for members that seek an alternative competition pathway. Thank you to Jason Bristow and Ian Jobson and we all look forward to seeing this group grow and increase our competitive numbers in competition board riding.

During the season we saw the passing of our much-loved Beach Coach, Glen Wilson. Glen was the gentleman of the beach section over many years, well respected and admired by all that met him but particularly by those he coached and mentored. He will be sorely missed.

Outside of surf lifesaving representative teams, many of our athletes have achieved significant representative honours, including:Australian Canoe Teams • Alyce Burnett • Jordan Wood • Brianna Massie • Tiarnee Massie • Alicia Fay • Phoebe Wills-Grace • Jenaya MassieAustralian Swimming • Hayden Cotter – Australian Open WaterAthletics – Cross Country • Alex Stitt – Australian Cross Country teamCongratulations also to Lincoln Dews who won the 2018 Paddle League World Title and Sam Short who won 3 Gold, a Silver and a Bronze at the 2019 Australian Age Swimming Championships. Congratulations to Jenny Parry who was inducted into the Sunshine Coast Sports Hall of Fame. Jenny was an outstanding competitive member from the 2000s who was a multiple world champion, world record holder, Australian Surf Lifesaving Championship winner and multiple Australian representative. Jenny is currently an Australian Lifesaving Team selector and above all else one of the most modest people you will ever come across.I would like to thank all of our Coaches led by Bugsy for their dedication and professionalism throughout the season. The results speak for themselves and whilst we all push in the same direction the results will keep coming. Thank you to the many Parents, Carers, Supporters, Volunteer Coaches and other Club Members who supported the Surf Sports section throughout the season – everything from Water Safety, Officiating, IRB, our Team Managers and those that set up and take down tents and tow the trailers to all the carnivals. Thank you!The Surf Sports section could not operate without assistance from the Maroochy Supporters Club and other Sponsors including Westfund Health Insurance who supported our World Championships campaign. Thank you to Jack Orr and Jodie Crowther for your assistance with organising the very successful Surf Sports Lunch with Kerry O’Keeffe.Thank you to the Members of the Board of Surf Sports for your hard work and support this season. Thank you also to President Steve Wieland and Board of Management colleagues for your support and advice this season.I would like to close this report by acknowledging our Team Manager, Stuart Travers, who is stepping down from the role this season. The role of Team Manager is undoubtedly one of the most demanding roles in the Club and Stuart has performed the role wonderfully over several seasons. The role of Team Manager has included everything from countless hours spent doing entries, trailer and tent logistics, complaints, selections and covering many km’s walking up and down the beach at every carnival. Thank you Stuart!

JUNIOR ACTIVITIES

This year our competitive team was slightly down in the overall point score finishing 5th at the Youth State Titles. We have, however turned the corner and are starting to get an increase in numbers at training and some super talented young athletes in the mix.

The general vibe amongst the Nipper community was quite positive with new families coming into the competitive age groups (U11-14) and helping push a skills-based program.

We started off the season with Boot Camp at Stradbroke Island. This has proven to be a fantastic way to start the season, giving athletes a chance to bond and build their aerobic base for the season ahead.

Thank you to Ralph Devlin and his JAC for their dedication to providing Maroochydore’s future with a safe, positive environment for all levels to shine.

YOUTH TITLESThis season the Aussie Youth Titles were held at North Burleigh on the Gold Coast. Jamie Perkins lead the way with two outstanding individual wins before setting up her team mates in a blistering first leg of the Cameron Relay. Sarah Maxwell, Matilda Jarrott and Kiara Rychvalsky where all placed under significant pressure by the chasing pack but managed to execute their skills and hold on for the win!

All our athletes conducted themselves in an outstanding manner and performed on the big stage. Sam Harris and Mitchell Stitt could very easily have joined the podium finishers if the surf was in their favour. All our athletes will learn from this experience and come back bigger and stronger next season.

Gold• U14 Female Iron – Jamie Perkins • U14 Female Board – Jamie Perkins• U15 Cameron – Jamie Perkins, Matilda Jarrott, Sarah

Maxwell and Kiara Rychvalsky Silver• U14 Female Swim – Jamie Perkins Bronze• U15 Male Board Riding - Joseph Mc Menamin

OPEN AUSSIES U17 – OPENOur Open section of the Club experienced a split Aussies with the Under 19 and Open Men racing at Broadbeach and the Under 17 Men and Under 17 Open Female competitors moving to Kirra for two condensed days of racing before moving back to Broadbeach for Sundays Finals Package. Sunday, the conditions were awesome with 5-6ft of clean surf rolling in and the odd bigger rogue set breaking near the Ski buoys just to make it interesting.Our Open section of the Club took out 10 Gold Medals, this combined with the three from the Youth Titles has made the 2019 Aussie Titles, Maroochydore’s most successful on record in terms of Gold Medals won. We experienced some awesome racing, as the group came together, supporting each other and finding inspiration from one another. One of the highlights of the weekend were the Under 17 Boys who managed to win every individual Gold medal on offer. On top of this Joseph McMenamin and Adam Palmer finished 1st and 2nd in the Iron Man. Another awesome performance came from our Under 17 Girls with Phoebe Wills – Grace and Tamarind Wildin – Snedden finishing 1st and 3rd in the Individual Ski.

OCEANS 6 – NUTRI GRAIN The Nutri Grain Series and Ocean’s 6 were again tied together as athletes were given the chance to qualify on Friday for Saturdays Nutri Grain Iron Final.

This season we had three athletes qualify for multiple finals with Adam and Mathew Palmer joining Tiarnee Massie in racing the professionals.

Matt and Adam achieved a slice of history, becoming the first brothers to qualify for the series on the same day, awesome effort boys! Along with Tiarnee, they received a taste of what it’s like to race the best at an Open level. All three athletes experienced some big highs and disappointing lows throughout the year. More than once, we were “done” by the surf but all three of them managed to learn from their experiences and make improvements.

All three athletes have set their sights firmly on next season and if they continue to train and learn, as they have this season, they will become serious threats to the big names.

CONCLUSION

This season has seen us continue on an upwards trajectory from last season’s successful Aussies. We are getting stronger as a group and much more professional in our approach to training and racing.

Our strength lies in working together and pushing in one direction. We have a fantastic group of athletes who are now experiencing individual and team success. We need to be able to ride the highs and lows together, be there for each other and keep improving.

The most pleasing aspect of the season, is having more of you realise the importance of having a strong group and wanting to stick together, to train hard together and to win together. We have won the Under 19 World Title – This is just the beginning; Let’s win it all – together!

Thank you to all the Coaches, Rhys Drury has once again done an excellent job and this is evident by the success of our Senior athletes. Jake Dale and Beau Farrell your contributions to the Youth Program are greatly appreciated and valued. Lenore Grice, Sarah and Kylie McGrath and all the Boat Sweeps thank you for your tireless service to the Club and lastly to Swanny, welcome to the team – you’re off to a flying start and I can’t wait to see what you can do.

Another action-packed year of Surf Lifesaving has come to an end. But before all our athletes enjoy a well-deserved break, we must recognise and celebrate the success of the Board Paddlers who competed in the mighty blue, black and white cap. The 2018/19 Season ended at Broadbeach on the Gold Coast but the athletes have been physically and mentally pushing themselves towards their goals since July last year. The training program was as usual developed by our Coaching Coordinator Bugsy whose hard work resulted in our best Aussies result to date. Jake Dale and Beau Farrell also helped Bugsy coach the Nippers on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. These sessions helped our younger members improve their skills and achieve their goals. Combined, Bugsy’s knowledge and Jake and Beau’s skills can and will create a new generation of athletes that will make Maroochydore proud. Our competitive team traveled to Broadbeach on the Gold Coast for the Senior State Titles. While the conditions were small, rips, holes and two differing sweep directions made for challenging races that needed to be underpinned by full race strategies. Evidently, States provided the athletes with a solid hit out and the opportunity to fine-tune race strategies prior to Aussies.Gold• U17 Male Board - Joe McMenamin• U17 Male Board Relay - Joe McMenamin, Oliver

Not being able to compete myself I’ve really enjoyed my first season as the Board Captain, and I hope I can continue to help our Club succeed into the future.

Board Captain’s ReportLaura Pettigrew

Reflecting on the past season it soon becomes evident that the increasing ripples of past years are growing into waves as our little club surges forward swamping some of the giants in the sport.

The achievements of our surf sports athletes will have already been documented elsewhere throughout this publication and it clearly shows that we have an amazingly talented group of people in our midst. The dedication and ability of this incredible team shows is more than evident from the season’s results.

As a team they have achieved great things, established new friendships both locally and abroad, represented at Branch, State, National and International levels, or perhaps even been a world champion. Regardless they, as all of us, have a common union, we are The Black Swan.

Our achievements are not solo efforts, the countless hours of support by Parents, Partners, Coaches, Club Management, Sponsors, Supporters Club and you the Club Members, should not go unmentioned. You are the batteries behind the shining light that is the Black Swan Team.

I wish to thank you all for allowing me to be a part of this fantastic team once again and look forward to what the future holds for us all. I am sure it will be bright!

Wow! What a year! We certainly started the season off with a bang at the Lifesaving World Championships! I was delighted to be part of the support team in Adelaide and to be able to watch our incredible athletes really hold their own – on and off the water. We are very lucky to have such a friendly and integrated group of athletes, which made winning the Youth World Title all the sweeter! Well done to Alyce Burnett and Matt Palmer for captaining our Black Swans. Great job!Key Ski Results for the 2018/19 Season include:

LIFESAVING WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS – ADELAIDEGold• U19 Female Single Ski (National Teams) Tiarnee MassieBronze• U19 Female Single Ski (Youth Teams) Alicia FaySpecial mention to:• Alicia Fay and Matt Palmer for their ski legs in the Mixed and

Youth Ocean Relays – contributing to both teams receiving Silver medals.

• All of our Single Ski finalists - Alyce Burnett, Brianna Massie and Ally Clarke in the Open Women’s, and Adam Palmer, Matt Palmer and Phoebe Wills-Grace in the Youth age-group.

AUSTRALIAN SURF LIFESAVING CHAMPIONSHIPS (BROADBEACH/KIRRA)Amazing results from our Ski Squad – in 2017 our Under 17 Open athletes in ski specific events won three medals, in 2018 it was fourth – this year we nearly doubled that to seven!

QUEENSLAND STATE TITLES (BROADBEACH)A much smaller Ski Squad for States due to many of our Open Athletes not being able to compete due to kayaking commitments, but that didn’t stop our youngsters from making their mark and giving the competition a taste of what was to come at Aussies!Gold• U17 Female Single Surf Ski: Phoebe Wills-Grace• U19 Female Single Ski Relay: Alexandra Clarke, Alicia Fay,

Bronze• U17 Female Single Ski: Tamarind Wildin-Snedden• U19 Female Single Ski: Tiarnee MassieObviously 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 where our athletes have done extremely well in over the past season, and holding their own against some very experienced paddlers in competitions such as the Oceans 6 and Nutrigrain finals. With this in mind, this year’s focus for our Iron Competitors is building their ski leg skills, which becomes more important to success as time goes by. For our younger kids we will be building on our Youth Development Program over the winter break and, as like last year, will be utilising the Ski Ergos for technique and training, and making our way to the water in structured sessions. We also currently have a grant application in to enable the purchase of four second hand TK1 Kayaks to help develop the required skills in a safe environment.I would like to thank the following people:• Nathan Greig and Rhys Drury for their passionate coaching

and unique ability to get the best out of our athletes. Your guidance in this area is so appreciated

• Mal Pratt and Ralph Devlin for their ongoing and generous support of the Youth Development Ski Program and donation of a Ski Ergo and beginner paddles

• Andrews Airport Parking for their contribution towards a new Double Ski

• Danny Short, who is doing an exceptional job as the Director of Surf Sports and has offered myself and the Ski Program a great deal of support this year

• Kim Musgrove for his tireless work in sourcing grants• Stuart Travers for managing our vast team and never resting! • Peter Mitchell – where would we be without Mullet! Always

there to pick up our athlete’s skis and provide them with support and encouragement when they are getting their heads into racing or have come off the finish line exhausted. We really appreciate the time you have taken to get to know our athlete group and support them in the way you do.

• Pistol Pete Elford for his come back into Open Men’s Ski paddling! Been great to have him back!

Lastly, I would like to acknowledge a number of our Ski Squad athletes who have competed at an exceptional level in Ski Paddling’s sister sport – Kayaking - continuing the proud history Maroochydore members have in achieving Australian Kayaking team selection, and I wish them luck in the coming months of various international competitions. Congratulations to Jenaya Massie, Phoebe Wills-Grace, Alicia Fay, Brianna Massie, Alyce Burnett and Jordan Wood. It’s certainly going to be a big year for our Open Kayak Paddlers with Olympic qualifying events happening over the coming months. All the best team!Well done Maroochydore! Very excited about what the future has to bring!

In what was a profound year for the Swans Beachies, we all said farewell to our very dear friend and Master Coach Glen Wilson, before 2018 came to an end. His legacy and spirit will forever be forged into the Swans Beach team and his voice will ring in the minds and hearts of all that were blessed to share his knowledge, passion and love for competition. The Wilson family, in conjunction with the Club have ensured Glen’s special legacy lives on through the Glen Wilson Perpetual Trophy, awarded for excellence in competition in Beach events for Junior Surf Sports. For the inaugural year this season, both Jean and Tony Wilson where present at the JAC Presentation, awarding this very special honour to Jade Bartholomeusz (U12 Girls) after her stellar performance at State Championships picking up the prized “Double Double” - Gold in both Beach Sprints and Beach Flags amongst her contribution to team relays and her work ethic at training. Glen would have been smiling for sure. Thanks to Michael Walpole, who both stepped up to continue to steer the team but also be the strength the youth needed to remain strong and keep training (that is what Glen would have wanted). Michael has been and is the natural leader of our crew and his commitment this season was exceptional – thank you! Michael now has headed on to his next challenge with the Armed Forces (Navy) as a pilot and we wish him great success. Our Beachies raced at all three Beach Series events (formerly FMOS) and our small but strong team had some exceptional results. Our crew at the Murphy Homes Maroochy Classic was again a nimble one with some podiums for Michael Walpole and Clay Burnett in Beach Sprints on home sand and our Under 15 Boys and Girls getting amongst the finals in relays after a big day in the water. While change is a constant, the support and energy that the Beachies put behind welcoming Swanny into the Club and his new role was exciting to watch. Numbers at both mid-week and weekend training continued to grow from Under 7 through to Masters and early signs where promising. Junior Branch Championships for our 11-14 Juniors was pretty exciting to see the hard work put in place at Nippers and training with plenty of medals and points across individual and team events. Amongst the obvious success of our individual medallists in Sprints, Flags and 1 and 2km (and we had many) the highlight was the way our Swans dug in for events of the Beach Relays, Cameron Relays and All Age Relay. As a Club at Branch, we had 8 teams entered in Relay including All Age and 6 qualified for State. Our Under 12 Boys gave us the sigh of the year winning the Relay by over 50 meters to be disqualified for baton over the line – hard lesson learned for us all. Our All Age Team of slap

together steadfast team-mates from beach and water raced exceptionally and even with a dropped baton came fourth then sneaked in for State qualifying. The 2019/2020 Branch will be the reckoning looking at where things are. YEEW! State Champs produced the goods in so many ways and put stamp on the sand of what is to come for our Junior Swans Beachies. We stacked a bag of individual medals from Tayla Bartholomeusz, Jake Neill (the 2 fastest U12s in the State) Oscar Starr-Thomas, Jade Bartholomeusz, Kiara Rychvalsky and secured points in all age groups in all events. Our Relay Teams really were impressive at States. The All Age Team found something truly special (for GW) in the Final and Ben Wischusen and Kiara Rychvalsky steered their respective teams to a first class run coming a very close fourth. Senior We have some building to do but saw some good results. Michael Walpole, Clayton Burnett, Jacob Bristow and Kiara Kliese got amongst the points at State and raced hard at Aussies. Well done to Jacob taking out 4th in the 2km in his last year as a Junior.We had relays in Under 14 and Under 15 girls and boys at both State and Aussies and Under 19 girls at Aussies with Clay Burnett making finals in Sprints at Aussies. Coach Swanny has recruited well at these Carnivals and we look forward to building the Seniors Beach crew in both numbers and performance during the offseason. In all regards we have plenty of work to do, however we finished the season through adversity and often sad times as One Club and with the true loyalty, guts and glory that our mate Glen would be proud of, and as Beachie Crew we most certainly can leverage into next season.

Masters Liaison Officer’s Report

Larissa Hallam & Ian JobsonThe Masters report for this season is a proud and varied one. Due directly to our small and dedicated team of likeminded members. Traditionally we assess our season by our Gold medal tally. However we applied ourselves to other activities, with great results. We organised a complete container load of lifesaving equipment, all donated by Alexandra Headland, Noosa and Maroochydore, to be shipped to California to replace fire ravaged gear, suffered by the Junior Lifeguards of Leo Carrillo. Special thanks to Wade Lee, Mal Pratt and Tim Harvey. We competed at the QLD Endurance Titles, Hervey Bay Carnival and Branch, State and Aussies.

We supplied Masters Members for five Patrols and came away with ‘No Lives Lost’. Thanks to Bluey and Narelle. We resurrected our famous ‘Fibreglass Cowboys’ formed in the mid 80’s and competed with a great sponsor, Grant Thomas of Maroochy Surf School. Special thanks to Jason Bristow. We applauded our Marj Allison who won Gold, Silver and Bronze at the World Athletics meet in Spain, however we tragically lost Marj’s Mentor, Glen Wilson and fellow Maroochydore competitor. RIP our dear friend. Its been a pleasure to coordinate our Maroochydore Masters. Thank you everyone for your contribution.

What a great season for our Swimmers, we have so much to celebrate.To be an athlete takes dedication and commitment, sacrifice and resilience. Even before you stand on that line you have already made a champion effort to be there.Not everyone comes home with a medal but there is a team behind everyone that does, this includes many Training Partners and Team-mates, Coaches, Managers, Committees, Physios and Dieticians, Parents and Supporters.So, Team Maroochy, a massive congratulations to you all.Together we are Champions….Full list of results are published in this report.

It has been an absolute pleasure watching our Cadet and Under 17 Group grow to new heights this year. We have cracked the Century and now have 101 Cadets to Under 17 registered members of Maroochydore! It is a wonderfully diverse membership, who are not just competitive in the water or on the beach, but also Champion Lifesavers, First Aiders, Marchpasters, dedicated Lifesavers and those really striving to learn everything they can about lifesaving. My role is simple – I really just have to be here if any of the Members need help with anything, and to be a representative voice for these age-groups in the upper levels of the Club. It is actually the likes to the Board of Administration who provide the opportunities for training and camps, and the Board’s Youth Engagement Program lead by Jonty Dodson and Laura Ioverio who put the hard yards to keeping our members engaged. Well done and a big thank you for all that hard work you have put in. It certainly brings our group of kids closer together and makes a massive difference to retention. I would also like to thank Alyce Burnett in assisting our Youth with team building discussions at the beginning of the season. We are very lucky to have such an experienced, well

adjusted, humble, relatable elite athlete that continually supports our youth. In our Under 17 ranks, we have gained new members at a time that traditionally loses members, and whom our existing members have welcomed warmly. To watch the dynamics of our athlete group of Under 17s (and older) at Nationals would make any member proud. They are extremely supportive of each other and inclusive which is testament to their maturity and will be a major factor in this age group continuing with Maroochydore in the coming years. Congratulations too to our Youth Mentors. For those who don’t know, our Youth Mentors are made up of our Cadet Members who no longer “do Nippers” on a Sunday but instead still come to the beach and help the age-groups with Skills, Water Safety and Beach Training. There is no rule to how often they have to do it, it is purely voluntary on their behalf, yet we have had upward of 16 Under 14 and Under 15 Mentors who have turned up week after week, providing our younger Nippers with an exceptional experience and great role modelling.Very proud of you all! Looking forward to seeing more of this next season!

The “Fibreglass Cowboys” have been resurrected this season with a new look logo and some great sponsorship of t-shirts from Maroochy Surf School. The Fibreglass Cowboys have a great history in the Club starting back in the early 80’s where a small group of keen surfboard riders in the Club founded the group. This year the Club has gone about bringing the surfers within the Club together from the younger Nipper ranks right through to some of our older Master’s group…basically if you love to surf then the Fibreglass Cowboys group of like-minded surfers is for you.During the 18-19 Season the Cowboys competed in both the State and Aussies in the various surfboard riding divisions which included some good results for the younger members from the Under 12’s through to our Under 15’s at the State Lifesaving Surfboard Riding Championships in January coming away with two 4th places in the Under

14 and Under 15 Divisions, well done Thomas and Jacob Bristow. Then at the Aussie Surfboard Riding Championships in April our Under 15 Member Kai Kimmins made it through to the Semi Finals and Kevin Gillard placed 3rd in the 60-69 age Malibu Division. The Cowboys also held a fun surfing comp against our friends from the Leo Carrillo California Surf Club during their stay in January, the day was well attended by many of our surfing members and was a great success with the Maroochydore Fibreglass Cowboys coming out winners on the day with Noah Andrew taking it out. The Fibreglass Cowboys look forward to continuing to build on our surfing group in the upcoming 19-20 Season and plan on running a few fun surfing comps during the winter to engage the group.

The Pool Rescue Season began in June, and Maroochydore has competed at the Branch, State and the Australian Championships.2018 Branch Champions, again, and results from the State and Australian Championships are as below;At the 2018 Queensland Pool Rescue Championships on the Gold Coast, our Senior team won;• 12 Gold• 14 Silver • 15 Bronze These results combined with our Junior results, and Maroochydore placed 3rd in the overall pointscore behind Northcliffe and Currumbin.At the 2018 Australian Pool Rescue Championships in Adelaide our Senior team won;• 14 Gold• 25 Silver• 15 BronzeThese results combined with our Juniors, and we placed 2nd in the Club pointscore, just behind Currumbin.A special mention to our Under 17 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.Thank you, to our Coaching staff of 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 two 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.2019 sees the return of the Australian Championships to the Gold Coast, it’s not as cold, it’s not as windy, so let’s all get there and race and see if we can beat those other two Clubs from the Gold Coast.So, until next year’s Pool Rescue Season, good luck, and we will see you all shortly on the beach.

This year was the beginning of a new era for the Maroochydore Boat Section. We have been quiet in the junior ranks for a couple of years and we have returned in a big way. The Force U19 Male Crew began the year never being in a boat and not really ever being in the ocean, the boys live in Maleny and train up there in the Dam under the guidance of David Lough and Gary Tanner. The boys started the year like new foals trying to stand and finished with a 5th at the National Titles in their first year, with another two seasons to go they will be very hard to beat.Other notable results were the Force Masters Crew who won the State, ASRL Open and second at Aussies, and the Reserve Female Stingrays who finished just short of making the Aussie final.This year we also had two new sweeps come through, Raylene Symons and David Lough. Also, thanks to Streak, Bob Stone, Laurie Murphy, Dave Hoffman and Steve Wieland for helping with coaching duties throughout the year.The Club also kept the spotlight on ourselves with Corey Stone as the QLD Cyclones Captain and myself becoming the President of the Australian Surf Rowers League (ASRL).Boat Section Awards: Boat Crew of the Year – Force Masters Most Improved Crew – Force U19 Male Most Outstanding Result – Force U19 Male Boatie of the Year – Laura Ioviero

Our Senior Team adventure began at the 2015 Aussies at Kirra, where a small group from Maroochydore formed the Colour Party in honour of our approaching Club Centenary and the 2016 Aussies.So, technically - very technically! - our Senior Team marked five years at States and Aussies. We had gotten used to a podium finish at States - three Bronze medals from three starts - BUT this year we were relegated to FOURTH! In fact, after a horror judging decision went against us at States, we only survived against fifth-placed Noosa Heads on a count-back! Quelle Horreur!The Senior Team Manager and Coach put their heads together and came up with the reason for a ‘suboptimal’ season - as they say in medical circles - COMPLACENCY, especially in the back row of the Reel Party, where our ‘El Presidente’ and his boatie buddy Steve Ellwood had come to ASSUME SUCCESS, just because they turned up........! Smarten up, you blokes!.....Nah, just kiddin, we had a ball as usual, and without the 4-point blooper at States (which was actually my fault!) we were only just off the podium by a very small margin. That said, our training was interrupted a fair bit by poor weather and unavailability to train at times. We’ll do better next season, we promise you Coach!And a big thanks to Bill Scott and Kara Wills-Grace for giving us your time this year.The best moment for the Seniors was to share the track at 2019 Aussies with our Under 23 BRONZE MEDALLISTS! Yew! How good are you young women under Super Coach Kara Wills! We were all so proud to be wearing the 1916 ‘Star Costumes’ together in one competition. It was right up there with 2017 when our Under 17 team were Aussie Champions after marching the house down against more-fancied rivals, such as Burleigh and North Bondi.With the grand majority of the Under 23 team coming from our Under 14/15 State Bronze medallist team, they have years of competition in this division, if they stick at it, so another famous March Past Aussies victory seems very possible in the future. Well done to the Under 23’s, you made us all proud.

In August 2018, our Maroochydore team of Jason Childs as Team Leader, Cassie Lee, Andy Walpole, Damon Nixon, Brad Kildey and Katrina Tam travelled to Shimoda where they lived, patrolled, trained, and shared cultural experiences and tours with the Shimoda members. The Maroochydore team participated fully in all aspects of patrolling and training with Shimoda lifesavers, exchanging knowledge and skills, sharing unique and sometimes challenging experiences, making many friends, and supporting each other along the way. As our members usually do, the team stayed on in Tokyo at their own expense for a short holiday, graciously hosted and shown around by Shimoda members, enjoying the many sights and delights on offer.

The Shimoda summer squad visiting Maroochydore in December 2018 was a huge success. On first arrival in Brisbane, the Queensland Lifesaving State Centre hosted a welcome morning tea and inspection of their facilities, which was enjoyed by all. The ten days of training took place in perfect surf conditions together with a couple of large surf days to challenge our visitors. Shimoda members had to contend with a bug that laid low eight of their team, and some Maroochydore members were out of action for a few days too. The day trips to Australia Zoo, Lazer Zone, Kondalilla Falls and Rock Pool, and lunch at Montville Lookout were a great break from training.

Many thanks to the Maroochydore Surf Club Board and Staff, and the Volunteers who assist every year with training, meals, activities, tours, hosting dinners at home, driving and friendships with the Shimoda team. Also, thanks to the Shimoda Committee for their support, as their contribution ensures the ongoing success of the program. Sadly, Nick and Gerry Clatworthy who have been tireless members of the Shimoda December program for many years will be sadly missed by everyone.

It was a great pleasure to work with the wonderful people of the Maroochydore Nippers this season. I was surrounded by committed parents who did their utmost to provide a safe and positive experience for all of our great Nippers and Youth.THE JAC BOARDI would like to acknowledge and thank our leaders:Deputy - Jason O’PraySecretary - Kat LathamTreasurer - Tracey WischusenDirector of Surf Awards - Narelle SouterWater Safety Co-Ordinator - Paul KayCoaching Co-Ordinator - Brad StarkClothing Co-Ordinator - Michelle Maxwell (Assist Kylie McGrath)Officials Co-Ordinator - Terese Starr-ThomasWater Coach - Kirk JarrottBoard Coach - Clint IrwinBeach Coach - Glen Wilson (Dec’d)/Todd McSwannTeam Manager - Youth - Nathan McGrathTeam Manager - Under 11-13 - Jo RoddTeam Manager - Under 8-10 - Natalie JarrottAge Managers:Under 6 - Dan Draper, Fiona Meredith, Évita CamilleriUnder 7 - Karen Nichols, Jay Whatley, Carl LathamUnder 8 - Deb Steele, Nathan LeeUnder 9 - Peter Halfweeg, Sandra Cooper, Tyler CarrollUnder 10 - Steve Rychvalsky, Jason McGrath, Wayne Spindler, Paul KayUnder 11 - Glen Pickering, Jo RoddUnder 12 - Brooke Starr-Thomas, Nathan McGrathUnder 13 - Natalie Jarrott, Jason Rainbow, Annie BanksUnder 14 - Brad Stark, Todd GraceUnder 15 - Kirk Jarrott, Rob Boughton, Kristy Rychvalsky, Mick CaseyThank you all.NEXT YEAR!Goals for next year have been identified and plans have been put in place:• MORE CARNIVAL OFFICIALS PLEASE! Therese Starr-Thomas, our ‘Officials Co-ordinator’, stayed ‘on-message’ about our parents stepping up to officiate. During the year we did try to encourage more candidates by showing the pathway, with only modest success. The process is definitely clunky, but we have to live with it and push on. Age Managers have the task of securing two Officials from among their parent cohort. This is our NUMBER ONE PRIORITY for 2019-20.• IRB (‘Rubber Duckie’) DRIVERS & CREWIES PLEASE! With reliable drivers passing onto the Senior Club, we suddenly found ourselves without an IRB capacity. A warm thank you to Kalani and Kiara Kliese (and Mum Jo) for your loyal support in this area. Other drivers are acknowledged: Brad

Kildey, Andrew Brennan, Jason Colston, Damien Andrew and Luke Hembry.• We finished the Season with two keen IRB driver candidates, who will train in the off-season.• MORE WATER SAFETY PLEASE! We can never do enough in this area. Although we did well, we definitely need more Surf Rescue Certificates (SRC’s) and more Observers Awards to come from our parent cohort. Again, a warm thank you to Paul Kay, our Water Safety Officer, for a job very professionally done. On the tricky days Paul could draw on the surf expertise of people like Clint Irwin, Jason O’Pray and Kirk Jarrott, so we were always in good hands. We probably spent more Sunday training time at the river mouth than on our beach, especially in the last two months.MORE THANK-YOUS:SECRETARY - KAT LATHAM - Kat, what a gem you are, three young kids but prepared to toil away on communication and the governance of our board meetings. I hope you can do more years in this role. We are so grateful for your support throughout a busy season.TREASURER - TRACEY WISCHUSEN - The $$$ were expertly tracked and reported upon and your knowledge of all things ‘Nipper’ was always helpful and constructive. Thanks for working in so closely with Club Treasurer Andrew Patrick.DIRECTOR OF SURF AWARDS - NARELLE SOUTER - As if you don’t have enough to do as Senior Club Secretary, Trainer and Assessor, thank you for your effort to get our awards process in order, and for your endless knowledge on all things Surf Lifesaving.AGE MANAGERS AND ASSISTANTS - You are the backbone of what we do. To a woman and man, you performed with good grace, enthusiasm and expertise to give our Nippers a top Maroochydore experience. I walked the beach most Sundays and at Carnivals and observed you all in action. A splendid job by all. And your participation at meetings was always thoughtful and constructive. Hey, it ain’t perfect, but you got on with it and made it better.COACHES – ‘Bugsy’ Nathan Greig (Club Coach) for another successful season as Australia’s best surf coach of young people. Your record of success in competition, at the highest level, is second to none. Clint Irwin (Board Coach) your positive outlook and sense of humour were a tonic every Sunday. Todd McSwann ‘Swanny’ (Beach), well done in your first enthusiastic season and, of course, vale our beloved and respected Glen Wilson. Kara Wills (March Past), a super Coach, thank you. Kirk Jarrott (Water), your expertise is vast and our Nipper skills flourish under your guidance. Brad Stark (Nipper Coaching Co-ordinator) thanks for your last Nipper season as an outstanding leader.

Earlier in the Season, Pool Rescue was coached by Liam Short, John Baxter and Danny Short, thanks for looking after our kids, gents......And a special shout out to Robb Broughton and Wayne Spindler, who conducted regular board sessions for our less-experienced kids.TEAM MANAGERS - Nathan McGrath and your team - blitzed it again. Hard-working, knowledgeable, unflappable, with blue black and white in your veins; Jo Rodd (Under 11-13), energetic and reliable. Natalie Jarrott (8-10s) bringing huge knowledge to the job, thank you.CANTEEN STAFF - Helen Patrick, what can we say to adequately describe your loyalty, industry and courage in ill-health. Thanks to all your splendid team, and young Sarah Bryan makes the best coffee! Thanks to Andrew Patrick for toiling most Nipper days on the BBQ, and to the many parents who helped out.PHOTOGRAPHERS - Michelle Maxwell and Dave Shearer - how lucky we are! Great pikkies and powerpoints all season.THE CLOTHING TEAM - Michelle Maxwell (again!), Kylie McGrath and the team, top job, we were a sea of Royal Blue at States. The others envy us, you know!CLUB CAPTAINSIzzy Stark and Justin Rew were elected our Captains for 2018-19. After Christmas, Justin did not continue, but on all occasions Izzy spoke beautifully. A highlight was the brief ceremony to remember the 100 years since the Great War Armistice on 11 November 2018. Warrant Officer Paul Boulton from the Senior Club addressed us and Izzy did the thank-you. Her speech to the State Team was also first-rate. Well done Izzy, you were a great leader.BUGSYS BOOT CAMP & CAMP COMMANDO28 kids on Bugsy’s Boot Camp and 8 at Camp Commando all had a ball and learnt a lot about themselves and life in general. We had some leaders at Camp Commando as well, who represented the Black Swan admirably. Thank you to everyone who made these opportunities available to our Nippers this year.CARNIVALSIn the winter months, we attended the Gold Coast for the Queensland Pool Rescue Championships, where our Nippers took 9 Gold, 8 Silver and 8 Bronze. The whole Club Team were runners-up to Currumbin SLSC. Then off to Adelaide for the Australian Pool Rescue, where our Cygnets contributed 7 Gold, 10 Silver and 3 Bronze for a Team placing of 2nd in a tight finish with, again, Currumbin.In October 2018, the Rainbow Beach Carnival was cancelled due to the conditions, as were some Branch events in February, so our competition season was a bit frustrating.Hit-outs at Met Caloundra later in October, as well as some Beach Carnivals, indicated that Maroochydore would have a good team going into States at Burleigh Heads.Our own ‘Junior Rebel Sports’ and ‘Murphy Homes Classic’ Carnivals showed a team building steadily towards the end of the season. States at Burleigh Heads we ran a creditable fifth in the Pointscore. Congratulations to Currumbin on back-to-back wins.We finished with 9 Gold, 3 Silver and 10 Bronze. Well done our Black Swans and thank you to all who contributed time and effort to our State Team - you could see our Royal Blue sun shirts for miles!

CARNIVAL WORKFORCESOur Workforce for the ‘Junior Rebel Sport’ Carnival at Maroochydore was heavily supplemented by our Senior Club Workforce.....Thank you.....So we repaid that support by being available in numbers for the Senior Club at ‘MURPHY Homes Classic’ in January. Folks, your hard work in lots of areas was noted, and favourably remarked upon by our Senior Club President.One Club!YOUTH (Under 16-19) WORLD CHAMPIONS 2018We the Nippers acknowledge the huge achievement of the Maroochydore 2018 World Youth Team Champions. Even the Manager/Coach Danny Short was a Nipper in the 1980s and is still a Nipper Dad today! The vast majority of our Team came through Maroochydore Nippers. We are so proud of you. Many of our kids look up to you and celebrate what you have achieved.YOUTH AUSSIES CHAMPIONS 2019Under 14 Female Board - Jamie PerkinsUnder 14 Ironwoman - Jamie PerkinsUnder 15 Female Cameron Relay - Jamie Perkins, Sarah Maxwell, Matilda Jarrott, Kiara RychvalskyTake a Bow, Jamie Perkins - triple Gold and Silver! And congratulations to another three – Sarah Maxwel, Matilda Jarrott and Kiara Rychvalsky - our newest Australian Champions. They are capped 212 to 215.STATE TEAM REPRESENTATIVESJamie Perkins and Sam Harris were selected to represent Queensland. Congratulations.FRONT OFFICE STAFF - THANKS FOR YOUR HELPHow do we count the ways that Lauren and Chelsea help us at the Lifesaving desk? Ladies, you are ever patient, kind and vigilant for the good of our Nippers, thanks a million for all you do. Thanks also to Club General Manager Jack Orr for your constant encouragement and support. Also to Senior Club Treasurer Andrew Patrick.SPONSORSA massive thank-you to our Major Sponsors BCU and Grill’d Sunshine Plaza.

I believe we have had a very successful year and I must thank the wonderful committee that has contributed to the board this year.

Kylie McGrath who has done a terrific job with the uniforms for the Club this year and drives up from Brisbane every month for our board meetings. I must also thank Rob Elford for his invaluable contribution and assistance as Carnival Coordinator, Natalie Jarrott for her volunteer commitments at events throughout the year, and Tim Ryan for his knowledge of all things related to the Club. I must also thank Majella Marsden who we have been able to call on as a reliable volunteer at events throughout the year, and Jodie Crowther the Clubs Marketing Manager who has been a tower of strength and support for the board.

The major fundraising events held by the board this year include the July and March Sports Lunches where guest speaker Kerry O’Keeffe’s larger than life personality delivered two sellout events for us, the August Race Day at the Sunshine Coast Turf Club, two sellout Golf Days in August and January at the Maroochy River Golf Club, and the Annual Christmas 10k Draw.

The Rebel Sports Junior Carnival held in October is now in its fifth successful year, and the Australia Day weekend Murphy Homes Maroochy Classic was the events 8th successful year, and a huge thank you must go to Brooke Bastien and Mark Berry at Murphy Homes, race sponsors and the army of Officials and Volunteers for supporting a major Surf Sports Carnival that continues to grow year on year for the Club.

This year we have renewed most of our existing sponsors and we have gained a number of new sponsor’s including John Anderson and Donna Quinn at Property Today, the RGD Group and Midas Maroochydore just to name a few.

However, I do have one concern, and it is the level of support that the Club offers back to its sponsors. We have several small local business sponsors who have offered their support on the basis that the Club will reciprocate in kind, and if we don’t support these local business, we will lose these sponsors.

I refer in particular to bcu Maroochydore, Helloworld Travel Maroochydore, Westfund Health Maroochydore, Cricks Sunshine Coast, All Coast Tyre and Mechanical, Midas Maroochydore, Grilled Healthy Burgers Sunshine Plaza and the Coffee Club Cotton Tree.

Our sponsors make a major contribution to the Club and we have a duty to help support these local businesses where and when we can. If you are using their services, make sure you are mentioning your connection with the Club. If you are not using their services, please be aware of the contribution they are making and if you have the opportunity please avail yourselves of it.

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 2019.

Again, it has been another challenging year for the Club, and we have all managed to pull together to ensure another successful year competition wise as well as our presence on the beach.

Financially wise, the active side of the Club has also fared well with the main focus of the Board to ensure there have been funds available as required for each section of the active side, whilst maintaining a stable financial base for the Club. We have provided new equipment including the SSV, IRB, Motors, Rescue Boards, Mannequins, etc for use within the Club. We have also provided funds so that athletes can represent the Black Swan at a multitude of carnivals and events across Queensland and Australia.

However, this does not come cheaply, and we have had the continued assistance of making funds available from our Grants Officer Kim Musgrove, to which the whole Club gratefully acknowledges.

Looking at the financials as presented, the overall revenue of the Club has remained fairly stable with a slight increase from the 2018 year, up from $1,413,735 to $1,429,681. This has been due to the increase in rent paid from $444,996 to $487,909 in line with the sub lease agreement with the Supporters Club. Donations from the Supporters Club reduced from $503,163 to $458,386.

However the overall increase in the rent offset the reduction in donations. The remaining funds have been from grants or fundraising by the members.

Expense wise, carnival entry fees continues to be one of the main expenditures for the Club. In 2019 total entry fees for all carnivals amounted to $68,689, up from $43,517. We urge all athletes to consider their

representation in carnivals, and if unavailable to compete informing the Team Manager or Coaches. This will save the Club these unnecessary entry fees.

Patrol expenses also significantly increased from $25,719 to $34,013 however this does include some smaller assets purchased.

On the balance sheet, the most notable items include the paying out of the bank bill, which reduced from $83,210 to the closing of the account. With the new funding from BCU, the commercial bill has been transferred from the active side of the Club to the supporters’ side, with the loan be renegotiated to principal and interest, ensuring the reduction of this loan. A loan remains between the two sides of the Club, but the actual bank loan now lies with the Supports Club. This has reduced our liabilities from $1,291,000 in 2018 to $980,000 in 2019.

Our debtors and creditors also remain within terms with debt carried from prior years being slowly reduced. This has been due to planned repayment schedules across all facets of the Club, ensuring minimal debt being carried where possible.

Overall the revenue loss for the year continues to be enhanced by depreciation and interest. Total loss for the year amounted to $278,951.

I have been advised by the auditors who have finished their audit of our accounts that we have met all requirements of the ATO. For the year ending April 2019, as stated, we do not have a tax liability with the ATO.

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.

Annual Reports provide an opportunity to pause, have a break, and reflect on the past performance of a given period and calmly review what has been accomplished compared to previously stated goals, objectives and ideals.This year we have successfully secured funds through our Grants Program, and a wide range of equipment was purchased which would have otherwise placed quite a strain on the budget and limited resources. The list ranges from patrol whistles costing a few dollars to a fleet of five IRB’s and other major and important pieces of essential operational equipment including ATV’s and facility upgrades costing many thousands of dollars each.ATV’s, Beach Safety Equipment Fund Approved Items, Beach Signage, Beach Tractor, Café Equipment, Club History Book Seed Funding for Printing, Club History Presentation and Displays at Libraries and Historical Society, Cowls for IRB Motors, First Aid Defibrillators,First Aid Equipment and Supplies, Helmets for Boat Crews, High Quality BBQ’s, IRB Motors, IRB’s, Lockers, Major Facility Upgrades, Marquees, Miscellaneous items for the Dormitories, New Fridges for Maroochydore Base, Patrol Radios, Patrol Sunglasses, Patrol Whistles, Pro Am Video Recorder, Ski Ergo Training Equipment, SSV’s, Surf Rescue Boards both Hard and Soft, Uniform – Shirts, shorts, Hats and Bum Bags and Thongs (approved), Water Rates Discounted Rebate, and Weatherproof Jackets for Patrols.As my good friend Squizzy would have said” that’s not too shabby at all! “Sure, it’s a big job, but ours is a big Club with even bigger dedicated voluntary members, all doing their bit for the good of others, this being the secret to much of our 103 years of Club history and community service. As Queenslanders all over the State are aware there has been more than a fair share of natural disasters from drought to flood and everything in between and, as such,

the Queensland Government moved to provide help and assistance to those affected by these events. To address the restoration of damaged areas and to provide hope for their survival and recovery, the Eligibility Criteria were changed to direct grant funding towards affected areas, as such, we would never be placed as a Priority 1 and any organisation which received funding above $15,000 in the past 2 years would automatically be placed as the lowest priority.After having discussions with the Directors of Surf Lifesaving and Surf Sport there was agreement that our Club has been extraordinary with our successes regarding grants and in fact we have been able to fund ALL of the identified items which were originally presented from our “wish list”, with the singular exception of procuring a parachute for the Junior Activities Board. Nonetheless, we have still been successful with the following grants;Fiona Simpson Member for Maroochydore for the donation of two pop up Marquees at no cost to the Club for use during Patrols and Carnival Events.Australian Government Volunteer Grants For First Aid and Real-Life Makin’s $5,000Sunshine Coast Councillors Discretionary Fund For Uniforms $1,382Sunshine Coast Council Major Grants For IRB Motors and Accessories $5,500Australian Government through the SLSA Beach Safety Equipment Fund For New SSV (partial funding) $5,500 TOTAL $17,382At this stage it might be worth noting that we have applied for a grant of $35,000 which we are awaiting advice on regarding possible favourable consideration, however, let’s not hold our breath on that but remain optimistic.
