Register a Club

All Lifesaving/Lifeguard Clubs must be registered and affiliated with the Lifesaving Society or as a program of an affiliated organization. Lifesaving Clubs can be organized by a current Branch Affiliate which registers the members, programs the practices and hires the coaching staff.

As registered affiliates Lifesaving Clubs are welcome to offer the full range of Lifesaving programs or focus solely on Lifesaving Sport programs; Sport fundamentals (Pool & Open Water), Junior Lifeguard, and the Lifesaving Athlete Development Program.
