Junior Lifeguard Club
The Junior Lifeguard Club (JLC) offers a unique aquatic alternative to traditional test-sheet-based aquatic programs and is independent of traditional award progressions. JLC is for quick learners and those between levels or programs who thrive in an energetic learning environment. Members can be any age between 8 and 15 years.
he JLC stresses fun and aquatic skill development based on personalbest achievement. Building on skills they already have, JLC members work to develop and improve swimming and other aquatic skills with emphasis on: swim and lifesaving knowledge, leadership and teamwork, community education, competition and personal fitness.
The Junior Lifeguard Club is water-based – most of the activities happen in the water. These activities may be supplemented with dry-land fun or community education projects, displays and demonstrations.
