Congratulations to Sorrento members Emmee Bevan and Lani Baxter on their selection in the 16-person Western Australian team competing at the 2026 Australian Pool Rescue Championships.
Emmee and Lani will represent WA at the South Australia Aquatic and Leisure Centre in Adelaide from 7-9 August, competing against some of Australia’s leading pool rescue athletes.
This is a fantastic achievement and a proud moment for Emmee, Lani, their families and everyone at Sorrento.
We wish the entire WA team the very best in Adelaide!
Maintaining our lifesaving capability requires ongoing training, practice and members willing to give their time to support both the Club and our wider community.
On Sunday, 10 Sorrento SLSC members completed the HLTAID015 Advanced Resuscitation Therapy course, strengthening our ability to respond effectively to emergencies at the beach, around the Club and within the community.
The full-day course covered advanced resuscitation techniques, airway management, oxygen therapy, defibrillation equipment and practical emergency-response scenarios.
The training was delivered by fellow Sorrento member Paul Berry, an experienced and fully accredited first aid trainer. We are fortunate to have members like Paul who are willing to share their professional skills and experience for the benefit of others.
Thank you to Paul and all 10 participants for investing their time in helping Sorrento maintain a strong, skilled and ready lifesaving team - and a safer community. ... See MoreSee Less
Membership renewals for the 2026/27 season are now open to all current members, across every age group and category.
From 1 September we'll open registrations to new members, and we already have a waitlist forming in most Nipper age groups. Renewing now is the best way to guarantee your spot before it's offered to someone on that list.
For families with U6 through U9 age members specifically, these groups tend to fill first and registration is open now, so it's worth getting in early.
A reminder that anyone who hasn't renewed by 1 September won't be able to train or use club equipment, including change-rooms and the gym, until their renewal is complete. This applies across the club, not just to competing or patrolling members.
Please note that membership can't be processed and your place can't be confirmed until Working With Children requirements have been met, even if fees have already been paid.
