Nippers

Rainbow Bay SLSC Nipper program runs Mid October – Mid March.  Held every Sunday 8:30am-10:30am (weather permitting) followed by a fundraising family sausage sizzle.

Nippers is a junior program that introduces children aged 5 to 13 to surf lifesaving. It is a fun outdoor activity based on the world famous Rainbow Bay beach. Through our team of qualified volunteers grow your childrens’ confidence, teach valuable life skills, get ocean smarts…and have lots of fun; all within a safe and supported environment.

Here at Rainbow Bay SLSC we encourage not only our nipper kids, but also their families’ to be involved. Whether helping setting up/packing down beach activities, filling water bottles to flipping sausages, all help is welcomed and much appreciated.  It is a healthy, active way to bond with your children all whilst supporting the local Rainbow Bay SLSC community. We have experienced, accredited age managers who will educate your child on the progressive awards each child earns during the season.

Rainbow Bay SLSC is actively growing our competitive section with first class coaches and additional training sessions available to improve surf and beach skills (competitive age starts with under 8’s). We look forward to helping your children hone their beach and water skills, and encourage parents to join in. 

Nippers is the pathway to Surf Life Saving and Rainbow Bay SLSC will guide your family in a fun, safe environment…all whilst being on the best beach on the coast; RAINBOW BAY!.
