Nippers Registrations

Renewing Nipper Registration Online

** Please note Registrations for the U6, U7 and U8 age groups are at capacity **

For returning Nippers, renewing your membership is easy! It’s all done online through the Member’s Portal. Don’t worry if you’ve forgotten your ID and password – we can help you out with that.

Members Portal

Members Portal is where all member information is kept in accordance with Surfguards privacy policy. An online account makes it easy to renew memberships, participate in training courses and register for carnivals.

Go to Members Portal

Surf Lifesaving has made some changes to Surfguard recently which has simplified the registration renewal process. If you have any questions contact Coolum Admin on 5446 1148.

Check that the total correctly reflects your family’s membership fees.
