Recognising the people who make a difference

Surf Life Saving Tasmania values the commitment, leadership and contribution of our members.

Recognition plays an important role in celebrating the efforts of individuals, clubs and units who go above and beyond to keep our communities safe and support the movement.

Opportunities exist at club, state and national levels to recognise outstanding contribution across all aspects of Surf Life Saving.
