Our club patrons.

Our Board.

Board of Management: The Board of Management oversees all lifesaving activities, day‑to‑day operations and the general functioning of the Club. Its role is to ensure the Club operates in line with the Grange SLSC Constitution and the policies of Surf Life Saving South Australia and Surf Life Saving Australia. The Board is made up of seven elected members who guide the strategic direction and governance of the Club.

Our Committees.

Grange SLSC has a number of specialised committees that support the Board of Management. Each committee focuses on a specific area of club development, operations or member support.

Beach Committee: The Beach Committee is responsible for all matters relating to the Club’s competitive performance and the practical delivery of surf lifesaving. This includes managing equipment, patrol operations, awards training, skills instruction and competition readiness.

Junior Committee: The Junior Committee oversees the training, development and wellbeing of all junior members — including Tiny Tots, Nippers and Youth. The committee ensures programs are safe, engaging and aligned with Surf Life Saving standards.

Other Committees : The Club also has seven additional specialised committees, each supporting a key operational or development area. Full details of these committees and their responsibilities are outlined in the Club’s By‑Laws.
