Manly Life Saving Club’s ski section is spearheaded by the infamous Life Member, Tony Vieceli, who has captained the ski team for the last decade (or so it seems). Tony is always looking for new people who are keen to start paddling with Manly. If you are a Manly member and have your Bronze Medallion proficiency, come on down any Saturday morning at 7:30am to meet the 20 - 30 paddlers who take to the water for the weekly time trial. We take all-comers, young and old, novice or elite.

Manly’s ski section is growing from year to year with many teams and individuals making the Aussie and State Championships finals in the past few years and achieving medal-winning results. Manly has produced a number of great paddlers in the past and is now moving into a new era where the up-coming generation of competitors are writing their names in the record books. There are also many paddling legends still associated with the club who are willing to give advice at the drop of a hat to anyone who will listen.

Whether you are a junior, open or master, looking to just start paddling or are moving clubs and looking for a great place to train and a place to meet some great people, Manly Life Saving Club is as fine as any on Sydney’s Northern Beaches - that’s what we think, anyway!

Please remember however, that Manly is a volunteer club; that in which everyone lends a hand and as such, paddlers who compete for Manly are expected to help out at the club by completing their Bronze Medallion and fulfilling their patrol obligations.

New members are always welcome to join the team. Contact Tony at admin@manlylsc.com for information.

MURRAY STEWART GRABS GOLD
 

Murray Stewart goes one better in Poland and grabs the GOLD MEDAL in the K1 1000m in a fast time against a good field.  (He turned the tables on the German competitor who pipped him for the gold last weekend in Bochum.)
