City of Bunbury Surf Life Saving Club

City of Bunbury Surf Life Saving Club Making your life on the beach safer this summer Cottesloe SLSC was the first West Australian Surf Life Saving Club to be formed in 1909.

The City of Bunbury Surf Life Saving Club was founded in 1915 and was the second club to be established in Western Australia. Since those early days members have volunteered countless hours of Surf Patrol duty to keep Bunburyโ€™s beaches safe for swimmers and surfers. Members have performed numerous rescues and attended to thousand of major and minor first aid incidents, and to this day continue to

enjoy the rich culture and proud tradition of the surf life saving movement. The City of Bunbury SLSC is one of 304 Surf Life Saving Clubs in Australia with a total membership of over 113,000 members. We are affiliated with Surf Life Saving Western Australia (SLSWA).

Congratulations Alex from all of us at the City of Bunbury Surf Life Saving Club.๐ŸŽ‰ Commonwealth Gold for the S10 100m Fly - what an achievement!!

The mother of Bunbury-raised para-swimmer Alex Saffy said she still canโ€™t believe her son won a gold medal at the Commonwealth Games.

Saffy, who has cerebral palsy, finished atop the podium for the men's 100-metre butterfly S-10 event in Glasgow on Friday night, with a 57.11 sec win.

Fellow Aussie Col Pearse was close behind him, winning silver in the same event.

Saffy's mother Deborah Saffy stayed up all night in Bunbury anxiously waiting to watch the race at about 4am WST on Saturday.

โ€œItโ€™s that build-up, just that wait before you see them walk out, the whole thing is nerve-wracking,โ€ she said.

She described watching her son win gold as surreal.

"It takes a minute to sink in, our processing is always a little bit behind the actual result,โ€ she said.

โ€œThereโ€™s that adrenaline and the nervousness of it all, and then thereโ€™s the relief that comes with it, that heโ€™s had a good race โ€ฆ and then you think, wow, he pulled it off.

โ€œWe were really happy for him, heโ€™s worked hard, heโ€™s sacrificed a lot.โ€

Saffy moved to Bunbury, from South Africa as a seven-year-old, in 2013.

His mother said the city played a vital role in his swimming success.

โ€œOne of his first places of connection and belonging was Bunbury Swimming Club and Bunbury Surf Life Saving.โ€
