Pool Life Saving Season takes off with a splash
On Sunday 19th November the Royal Lifesaving Sports community united for the launch of the official season. Against the stunning backdrop of @cabarita pool, the event brought together team officials, parents, and kids from various Life Saving Clubs across greater Sydney. The day featured in-pool skills and training sessions, a CPR session, and concluded with a social gathering for all members.
In addition to the season launch, the NSW State Pool Life Saving Team and development squads were announced. The State team will represent NSW at the Australian Pool Lifesaving Championships (APLSC) in Melbourne. The event will take place over 4 days from Thursday 18 January - Saturday 20 January 2024
