SLST is exploring offering some IRB Competition opportunities in Tasmania in the 2021/22 season.

Recent changes to the Surf Sports Manual now require that all IRB competitors undertake 20hrs of training under the supervision of an IRB Coach prior to competition.

Juppy, who is an endorsed IRB Coach, has offered to provide some initial training to interested IRB drivers and crew on Sunday 24th October at Port Sorell.  Other clubs would be invited to participate.

The training is subject to sufficient interest from currently proficient IRB Drivers and Crew. (Depending on the event, each team comprises a driver, crewperson, two patients and handlers; all of whom require current BM and IRB awards).

Proficient IRB Drivers and Crew should email neil_hargreaves@me.com to indicate if you’re interested in exploring IRB Competition this season, and your availability for training with Juppy on Sunday 24 October.

Please call Neil on 0466 266 113 if you have any questions.
