BRONZE MEDALLION

ABOUT

Whilst there are many entry points into Surf Life Saving, the Bronze Medallion is the most common and has been a lifesaving standard award for over one hundred years. Initially developed in England by the Royal Lifesaving Society in 1892; the Bronze Medallion has been adapted over time by Surf Life Saving Australia to suit the aquatic environmental conditions of Australia.

  • All candidates are required to be a minimum age of 15 years and swim 400m in 9 minutes or less

The Bronze Medallion course provides you with the skills and knowledge to become a surf lifesaver for patrolling and water safety. This helps to keep yourself and others around you safer in an aquatic environment and enables you to perform such activities as aquatic rescues, communications, emergency care and first aid.

There are multiply options for undertaking your Bronze Medallion Course, as outlined below.
