Description

Designed for ages 11 to 14, this course helps build a foundation of knowledge, attitudes and skills for future lifeguards.

Junior Lifeguarding has a strong focus on developing swimming skills to help participants meet the Lifeguarding course prerequisite when they become 15 years old. The course introduces participants to lifesaving skills, such as: in-water rescues, use of a rescue tube, first-aid skills, CPR, and how to use an AED. Participants will also have the opportunity to shadow lifeguards in rotation to get a real sense of being on the job.

  • Tread water for a minimum of one minute
