Patrol Season starts on Saturday, September 19 2020 and ends on Monday, May 3 2021.
Membership for the 2020/21 season is now open! All patrolling members must be financed by their first patrol. This season, we are asking members to renew online via SLSA Online Members Area. It is super easy and we have provided step-by-step information to assist you with the process. Of course, our administrator is available during office hours if you need assistance.
SLS Members Area Information
RENEWING MEMBERS
Existing members will need renew your membership online this season via the SLSA Online Members Area (you can also do this on your mobile phone).
- Create a ‘members account’ if you haven’t done so already. If you have simply enter you email and password where required. Please check your details and update if anything has changed in 12 months, ensure that the Club has an active e-mail address and mobile number. This is critical information we require in case we need to contact you.
- Renew and pay your Membership online – that easy! If you need further assistance please refer here for Renewal and Payment instructions.
If you get stuck please contact the Club Administrator during office hours who will be able to assist you with the process.
NEW MEMBERS
For new members joining the Club for the first time, it does become tricky! You’re more than welcome to give it a go click here. If you get stuck view the instructions on how to join. Please ensure that the Club has an active e-mail address and contact mobile number. This is critical information we require in case we need to contact you.
Rather than lose you to technology we have the good old paper version of the Membership form for you to print and complete. This can be bought into the club during office hours and payment can be made to the Club Administrator at this time also.
BLUE CARDS
It is a requirement by SLSA that all patrolling members must hold a current blue card. If you do not have a current blue card or you need to renew there are now two options:
Option 1
Members can use the new forms here, but you must ensure you provide a QLD Licence or CRN number and Certified Copies of an identification document or CRN must accompany your application (this can only be certified by a JP, Commissioner for Declarations, Lawyer or Police Officer)
Option 2
Members can use the online application portal Blue Card Online Application Portal but you must ensure you have a QLD Licence or CRN number. You can also use the ‘How to’ guide to assist with this process.
ALREADY HAVE A BLUE CARD?
If you already have a blue card with another organization we are required to link it to SLSQ. You need to complete the Link an Applicant or Cardholder form.
BLUECARD EXEMPTIONS
Registered teachers and police officers remain exempt from requiring a blue card as part of their professional duties. However, when providing services which fall outside of professional duties, you must now complete an Exemption form and return it to the Club.
