Rookie Lifeguard Awards

Rookies are aimed at 8 - 12-year-old to gain knowledge of personal safety and rescue techniques.

 

RLSS UK’s Rookie Lifeguard programme gives your child the skills they need to be confident in the pool or the sea – which means peace of mind for you. With colourful materials and fun, varied activities, the Rookie Lifeguard scheme teaches children how to swim and enjoy the water safely, whether in shallow or deeper water.

National Lifesaving Academy

National Lifesaving Academy is aimed at 12+ to develop personal survival skills along with fitness and rescue techniques.

 

The awards teach lifesaving rescue, self-rescue, survival, and lifesaving sports skills and also develop swimming ability and fitness. There are three award areas to achieve, the Pool Awards, the Beach Awards and the Open Water Awards. The skills developed in these awards can support a child’s progression into the National Pool Lifeguard Qualification (NPLQ) when they turn 16.
