We are about to start our clinic way up here at Port Douglas Surf Life Saving Club.
The support from the Branch, clubs and members has been amazing.
It all kicks off tonight with our welcome dinner.
This is how excited we are to welcome with .doyle and to our club tomorrow!
Being a remote club about 1,800km away from the Surf Life Saving capital of Australia, we don’t often get visits from amazing and inspiring athletes.
A massive thank you to and for making this clinic happen on Four Mile Beach!
We will also welcome athletes from and to our beach, which makes for a great opportunity for kids from all of these clubs to get to know each other. Friendships for life is what it’s all about 🫶
If you’re keen to see the action, come to the beach tomorrow (Sunday 7 July) between 9am - 1pm 🤩
Now first dinner at for some much needed nutrition so we can be our best tomorrow 🏄♀️
PS. If you’re registered for the clinic, you are invited to join dinner for free tonight. Parents and other siblings/friends will pay for their own dinner. If you’ve missed the RSVP survey for dinner, don’t stress, we’d love to see you tonight!
Was sorry to read that the 43year association with Nutri Grain as a key partner of the professional surf sports racing is over.
Some years back I was contracted to help with some commercial sponsorships for the series. I approached the Sutherland Shire council and gained their support to bring the sport back to a Sydney beach for the first time in many years.
When meeting with the then Mayor I vividly recall him saying…
“I don’t know much about surf lifesaving other than two things, Grant Kenny and the Nutri Grain Series”. It is the Formula 1 sport we can afford and we want it.”

has been a big supporter of Hydrothon going way back to our racing days.
A young and her mates would travel to all our events to compete.
For this reason and due to ongoing requests, we are looking forward to repaying their support by bringing the All Female Surf Sports Clinic to their beautiful beach later this year.
Open to girls from U9-U15, there is no doubt it will sell out quickly.
And yes, Bella will be mentoring back at her home club.

On this date, 74 years ago North Cronulla Surf Club Captain Jim Peryman lost his life performing a rescue in surf at North Cronulla (19/02/1950)
NEWSPAPER STORY
LIFESAVER DIES IN SURF Line Fouled - AGAIN
Another surf lifesaver was drowned yesterday when seaweed fouled his line. He is the second to die in this way in two months. He was James Peryman, 24, captain of the North Cronulla Surf Club, who lost his life while trying to save a 16-year-old girl in a heavy surf at North Cronulla.
He reached the girl about 400 yards from the shore and was about to bring her in when his line became entangled in the seaweed. When pulled out of the surf he was unconscious and doctors on the spot failed to revive him. St. George District Ambulance took him to hospital where he was placed in an iron lung, but with no success.
His father, the Manager of the Commonwealth Bank at Cronulla, arrived while lifesavers and ambulance men were trying to save his life.
Ashley has been a massive supporter of me and Hydrothon.
Without his backing, 2 successful Hydrothon and SurfCross Female Clinics would not have occurred at Alex SLSC.
I’ve had many long chats with Ash Robinson and for mine, he is definitely a great candidate for this role due to his passion, compassion and acumen .
The Sunshine Coast's only REAL Mayoral Candidate.
Congratulations on a wonderful professional surf sports career . You’ve inspired many young girls to chase their dreams. Best wishes from all your fans here at Hydrothon. Steve
