Nippers intake – Important Information
The 2023/24 season opened on 1 August 2023 and due to unprecedented demand, closed on 8th August while the Nipper management team assessed numbers and resourcing. On 22nd August we have opened a second intake, for the age groups/streams that we still have space for.

- If a family has eg an U9 and an U12, there is only the possibility of membership/nipper participation for the U12 in Core/Surf Sport. Please don’t ask us to squeeze in your U9.
- Age groups are strictly based on child’s age as at 30th September 2023, eg DOB 15/4/2015 is U9; DOB 20/10/2011 is U12. There is no leeway in this rule.
- We are not keeping a waitlist. Unfortunately if we can’t fit you in, you could try another local club, or make a note to get in earlier next year.
- If you are a returning Nipper family with a parent who holds current Bronze, Officials, Age Manager or Coaching quals, we invite you to email admin@oceangroveslsc.asn.au. We may be able to squeeze you in based on you taking on a key volunteer role.
Email admin@oceangroveslsc.asn.au with an expression of interest, advising child(ren)’s name, date of birth and desired Nipper stream. Parent WWCC requirements must be met before a request can be progressed. Evidence of current cards with OGSLSC linked to them, can be attached with your EOI email. Details here: WWCC instructions and info
Selection will be based on the time/date order of your email (first in best dressed) AND applicants will be prioritised if WWCC requirements have been met.
To be super clear, an EOI email to admin@oceangroveslsc.asn.au is the only way to initiate entry into this second nipper intake. OGSLSC will reply either inviting application, payment etc OR to tell you that we can’t fit you in.
As Nipper age groups and streams fill, updates will be published here, so keep checking back.
