2021-22 Nipper Registrations are closed due to NSW & SLS COVID Guidelines

All other members, please see below for information on how to register for the 2021-22 SLS Season.

Hi there Nippers – this SLS Season – due to COVID, our Junior Activities (Nippers & Cadets) are strictly limited with Age Group sizes and group numbers as we are abiding by SLS and NSW COVID Guidelines and the SLS Return to Sport Plan. This means we have had to reduce the amount of Nippers and Cadets that we can have at any one time on the beach.

We reached capacity within our first round of Nipper Membership RENEWALS and have to close Nipper Registrations from this point onwards. 

We wish we could include everyone! We hope you understand that we are following the NSW & SLS COVID Safety plan. We know this might cause disappointment – and trust us – we disappointed too!

Be sure to check back with us next season!

Please note:
Any pending Nipper memberships that have not completed the THREE steps to Long Reef Membership, nor responded to requests of the Registrar, will have any payments refunded in full, Registration with SLS rejected, and their position made available to another, providing that age-group is not over-subscribed.
