🥇 GOLD for Team England! 🥇

The wet SERC is always fiercely contested, but our England Development Team rose to the challenge and successfully defended their title from two years ago – claiming the top spot once again! Beacon’s Henry played a key part in both the team gold from Canada in 2023 and this year 💪

🥇Double Commonwealth Champions🥇

To top it all off, Team England made history by finishing first in both the National and Development categories – a feat that’s never been done before! 🔥🙌

The Closing Ceremony featured a beautiful performance by a Welsh choir, marking the perfect end to a truly unforgettable Games.

👏 Massive congratulations to all our athletes, coaches, supporters, and volunteers – your hard work made this a Games to remember! ❤️

Ben, Ben, Henry and Isla all smashed it and did the club proud. Having four members representing England was brilliant and a testament to all the hard work! 👏👏👏 Thanks also to coach Ben for supporting our athletes all week, and in challenging conditions 🥵 👏👏👏

Hello, we are four athletes and a coach from Beacon Lifesaving Club in nearby Crowborough who have been selected to represent Team England at the upcoming 2025 RLSS Lifesaving Commonwealth Championships in Swansea, UK taking place in July.
Due to the high costs associated with Lifesaving Sport as it is a sparsely funded sport we are hoping to fundraise in order to be able to attend this prestigious event.
We are hugely grateful for any donations or shares of our cause and would be deeply grateful if you can give anything to help us to fundraise for this competition.
