Aqua Cameron relay is an event where four members complete the legs of the Iron Person race. Three of the members will either swim, wade or board paddle while the fourth member will run and tag each member after each leg of the race.

Beach Flags is a traditional event that has existed since the very beginning of Lifesaving. It involves a group of lifesavers competing for 'flags' (pieces of hose-pipe). An athlete is 'knocked­ out' each time and eventually there is a run off between two competitors. The one who wins the final flag, wins the event.

Beach Relay is held on the
sand and consists of a team of four competitors. Members 1 & 3 are stationed at one end of the lanes whilst members 2 & 4 are at the other.

Beach Run is a run along the sand, around a marker and returning to the start position (distance varies with age)

Beach Sprint involves a sprint over a distance of 70 metres.

Belt & Reel is a beach event and
involves two competitors (one runner and one reeler) and an approved life saving reel. (U12 and above)

Board Race uses a Nipper or Malibu board. It involves negotiating the break and then following a set course of buoys. You then return to shore surfing the waves back to the beach. First over the line is the winner

Board Relay consists of three paddlers completing the board course as above in a tag system. The first team to successfully pass all the buoys and cross the finish line will be declared the winner.

Board Rescue - each team consists of two competitors; a swimmer and a board paddler. On the starters signal the swimmer enters the water and swims to their allocated buoy and signals to the board paddler to "rescue them". When the board paddler has picked up the swimmer, the two competitors paddle to the beach where they must cross the finish line.

This event trains lifesavers with the ultimate endurance ability. It consists of a board paddle, a swim and a run to the finish line.

March past team - a team of 11 marchers from each life saving club carries a reel and club flag, marching to music around a set course and are judged on their timing, marching ability, overall appearance and presentation.

Surf Race involves swimming around a course of buoys placed out in the ocean and swimming to shore

Surf Team Race (team of 4) involves all entrants swimming at the same time around a course of buoys placed out in the ocean and swimming to shore. Team rankings are based on the finish places of each swimmer.

Wade Race is a skill designed to teach nippers the art of proficient running into the surf.

Competitors begin on the beach start line and on the starter’s signal enter the water and either wade, dive and or swim around three Life savers usually standing waste deep in the water and then run to the finishing line on the beach.

Wade Relay involves teams of four who conduct a tag style of race over the same course as the wade race.
