It's something that not a lot of people know about our sport, in order to compete we have to patrol. Down at our club all through summer, you'll see athletes donning the red and yellow to keep watch over our beaches. I also think it's something that's special about our sport, and it's a way to give back to the community that has given us so much. As athletes we care about our training and our performance, but at our core it's our priority to care about the beaches and the safety of our community. It's also a way that we can remain connected after our career as athletes.
