Joining & Renewing Your Membership
Updated 22 Aug 2026 · Rochelle
All registrations and renewals happen through the SLSA Members Hub — the national online membership platform — at hub.sls.com.au.
New members
- Create a personal account at hub.sls.com.au (a parent or guardian must create the account for a child).
- Search for and select Trigg Island Surf Life Saving Club.
- Choose the membership category that applies to you or your child.
- Complete your details and submit any required documents — proof of age (birth certificate or passport) for Junior members, and a Working With Children Check for Nipper Parents and anyone working with children.
- Pay your fees.
- Wait for the Club Administrator to approve your application — you're not a financial member, and can't train, patrol or compete, until it's approved and confirmed.
Joining to do your Bronze Medallion?
Select Probationary as your category — the Bronze Levy is included in the Probationary fee.
Returning members
Renew each season from 1 July, once the new season's fees are published. If you've set up a Family Group in the Hub, the primary account holder can renew everyone together — each person still keeps their own individual record.
