100 years in the making


Introduction

This summer marked 100 years since the start of the Surf Life Saving movement in New Zealand. Established in 1910 with a couple of surf reels on some Christchurch beaches, Surf Life Saving has evolved into a large and diverse organisation that is as much a part of the kiwi culture as fish ‘n’ chips and cricket on the beach. Surf Life Saving is responsible for bringing together a unique mix of men and women from all walks of life that share a common passion for the surf and dedication to protecting those who venture into it. Together we have saved the lives of over 50,000 New Zealanders while enjoying a lifetime of experiences, stories and friendships that have combined to shape and develop the history of the organisiation as a whole. To celebrate this history, Surf Life Saving New Zealand and its key sponsors and supporters teamed up in this centenary year to promote a raft of events and initiatives that showcased the incredible spirit, commitment and dedication that epitomises the surf lifeguard. The following is a snapshot of some of the memorable events from the past year...

The 1920s saw the national Nelson Shield competition resume after the war years had curtailed its 1915 inaugural contest in Napier. In 1922, for the first time, club teams were allowed to compete. The competition, for 6-man teams, was based on military training.

2010 – 2011 has been one of momentous events and memory. I want to start by greeting our colleagues and members in Christchurch. As we started the season with hopes and aspirations of holding the year’s major sporting event – the State National Surf Life Saving Championships – on the beach of New Brighton, little did we know that soon after, the New Zealand

BELOW A LETTER OF APPRECIATION FROM WELLINGTON CITY COUNCIL TO THE LYALL BAY SURF LIFESAVING CLUB, 1921 LEFT LYALL BAY SURF LIFEGUARDS IN EARLY DAYS

The Early Days Surf lifesaving is probably the best import we’ve ever had from Australia. It was on its long sweeping golden beaches and in its crashing waves that lifesaving was born in 1906. The traditions that took root there first came to the shores of Lyall Bay and New Brighton in 1910 and by the end of that year four more clubs had sprung up and started patrolling. New Zealand lifeguards wore the same style of costumes and caps as their Australian counterparts. The reels they carried proudly onto the sand were manufactured in Australia and shipped across the Tasman. But the New Zealand coastline is different. It does not always have that idyllic combination of golden sand and predictable surf. The roaring conditions on the West Coast and often-imperceptible currents of the East both pose significant and unique dangers to unsuspecting swimmers and beach goers. As a result, our lifeguards were quick to innovate by introducing and trialing a number of borrowed and original initiatives, including neoprene rescue tubes, jet boats, helicopters and the unprecedented inflatable rescue boat (IRB), in their relentless pursuit to save more lives. This flexibility and willingness to adapt revolutionised surf lifesaving in this country, making it more professional and effective, in some cases shortening rescue times from hours to a matter of minutes. Though traditions, equipment and practices have changed, one fact has endured: surf lifeguards are in it for life.

LEFT GIRLS FROM WAITEMATA LADIES CLUB, FEBRUARY 1962

BELOW ANNA BALLARA, NZ TEAM CHAMPION, LONG BAY, 1998

Women in Surf Lifesaving Today women stand on an equal footing with male clubbies – but this hasn’t always been the case. Surf clubs were traditionally a male dominated environment with only some welcoming a ‘ladies section’. This all changed with the advent of World War 1 when women members were called upon to help patrol the beaches while the men were away fighting. Upon completion of the war it was largely expected that the men would resume responsibility for saving lives and there was a feeling from some that they did not want or need women as surf lifesavers. However the strong women of New Zealand have never been shrinking violets when it comes to equal opportunity and so it was that a number of women-only clubs were formed throughout the country, including Milford Ladies, Wellington Ladies and Castlecliff Ladies to name a few. Members competed amongst themselves and against junior male teams where they often won – only to be disappointed at the prizegiving when they each received a pair of men’s socks! Things are much more inclusive these days and it is now a familiar sight to see women in surfboats powering through huge surf at places like Piha and competing in such events as the ironman, taplin and ski races at all national and club level surf competitions. The early pioneering women would be proud to see the progress made and the increase in ability of today’s modern female surf lifesavers.

This work further strengthens the beach assessments completed at 125 beaches nationwide.

living the culture


Living the Culture The Duke of Edinburgh once said of lifesavers, “Look at the surf lifesavers … they pay a subscription to their clubs for the privilege of risking their necks to save others”. The Duke was impressed with lifesaving in both Australia and New Zealand and was echoing what New Zealanders had felt throughout the decades: that Surf Life Saving is an organisation that has bonded young men and women together like no other. In the surf and the long hours on the beach, the members of this great organisation have developed lifelong friendships that span generations. Boat crews and surf teams develop a comradeship in competition and in honing the skills that make great patrol members or champions. At club level there is little difference. What matters is the spirit that the members bring to their club. The active member is respected and supported. Patrolling is a dedication in itself. It is vital that vigilance is maintained on the hottest, longest summer day, or the coldest, wettest afternoon as the season winds down. The public’s expectation of surf lifesaving is one of trust and respect and every club member is prepared for the moment that they will need to spring into action. A club is defined by team work. From surf boat crew to first response, all rely on another team member. That trust is rarely broken. The friendships made on the beach continue for a lifetime.

LEFT KELLOG’S NUTRI-GRAIN (NOW LION FOUNDATION) SPONSORHIP HELPED BRING SURF SPORT MUCH NEEDED EXPOSURE

Surf Sport Sport is an integral part of surf lifesaving and plays a crucial role in the practical skill development of surf lifeguards. The techniques employed in the heat of competitive battle are exactly the same as those used by lifeguards when they are called upon to save lives in the surf. Of equal importance is the camaraderie and club spirit that sport and competition foster, attributes that aid in the retention of members. The Surf Life Saving event programme is full of opportunities for members to meet, compete and socialise with each other. Experiences that help forge and galvanize the bonds that hold the organisation together. In recent years, the introduction of showpiece events such as the Kellog’s Nutri-Grain (now Lion Foundation) Surf League and international championships and test series have brought unprecedented media coverage to Surf Life Saving together with significant commercial reward. They have also provided the opportunity for local athletes to pit themselves against some of the best in the world. Top competitors such as New Zealand Ironman champion Daniel Moodie now regularly cross the Tasman to train and compete in professional events, following in the footsteps of great Kiwi athletes such as Cory Hutchings and Glenn Anderson, who enjoyed outstanding success in international surf lifesaving competition. Surf sport continues to be the pulse of the organisation – a unique point of difference that keeps thousands of national members coming back year after year for more.

SURF LIFE SAVING NEW ZEALAND 2011

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2011

56 1. REPORTING ENTITY The financial statements of Surf Life Saving New Zealand Incorporated (SLSNZ) for the year ended 30 June 2011 were authorised on the 13 August 2011. SLSNZ is a New Zealand Incorporated Society formed under the Incorporated Societies Act 1908. SLSNZ is not a reporting entity in terms of the Financial Reporting Act 1993. SLSNZ is a charity registered under the Charities Act 2005. SLSNZ’s principal activity is to Prevent Drowning and Injury in New Zealand. An activity to facilitate this includes providing a National Sport programme for our membership. This remains unchanged during the period reported.

2. SPECIFIC ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Preparation The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis. The financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest dollar. Statement of compliance The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with NZ GAAP. They comply with New Zealand equivalents to IFRSs and other applicable Financial Reporting Standards, as appropriate for public benefit entities that qualify for and apply differential reporting concessions. Differential Reporting SLSNZ qualifies for differential reporting as they are not publicly accountable and is not considered large under the differential reporting framework. All differential reporting exemptions have been applied in full where applicable. a) Goods and Services Tax All figures are stated exclusive of Goods and Services Tax except Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable. b) Property, Plant and Equipment All property, plant and equipment is capitalised and recorded at cost less aggregate depreciation. • Depreciation Depreciation is provided on all tangible assets on a straight line basis that will write off the cost of the assets over their estimated useful lives: Office Furniture and Equipment

3 - 10 Years

Vehicles

5 Years

Computers and Electronic Equipment

3 Years

IRB Simulator / Container

3 Years

Event Equipment

3 - 5 Years

Buildings

Not depreciated


57

• Impairment The carrying values of plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.

If any such indication exists and where the carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the assets are written down to their recoverable amount.

Any impairment losses are recognised in the income statement.

c) Receivables Receivables are stated at their estimated realisable value less any provision for doubtful debts. d) Expenditure Carried Forward Significant items of expenditure having a benefit or relationship to more than one period are written off over the period to which they relate. e) Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realisable value, determined on a first-in first-out basis. An allowance for obsolescence has been assessed where appropriate. Inventories include uniforms, resource manuals and other surf lifesaving equipment that is on sold to Clubs or used for promotional purposes from time to time. f ) Leases Lease costs relating to operating leases are recognised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease. Finance leases, which effectively transfer to SLSNZ substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the leased assets, are capitalised at the lower of the leased asset’s fair value or the present value of the minimum lease payments at inception of the lease. The leased assets and corresponding liabilities are recognised and the leased assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. g) Income Tax SLSNZ has Charitable Status from Inland Revenue for income tax purposes. There is no requirement to provide for income tax. h) Foreign Currencies Transactions in foreign currencies are converted at the New Zealand rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. At balance date foreign monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate and exchange variations arising from these are included in the Income Statement. i) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and the short-term deposits in the balance sheet comprise cash on hand, cash at bank and short-term deposits with time to maturity of six months or less.

ANNUAL REPORT / CENTENARY EDITION


SURF LIFE SAVING NEW ZEALAND 2011

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2011

58 j) Investments All investments are initially recognised at cost, being the fair value of the consideration given and include acquisition charges associated with the investment. After initial recognition, investments which are classified as at fair value through profit and loss are measured at fair value. Gains or losses on investment classified as at fair value though profit or loss are recognised in the income statement. Investments are valued by the fund manager (New Zealand Asset Management) at balance date based on information provided to them by relevant external investment fund’s managers. k) Revenue Recognition Certain grants have a particular purpose for use. Any unspent money at balance date is either returned to the grant provider or carried forward as a current liability on the balance sheet for completion in the following year. l) Intangible Assets SLSNZ have numerous registered trademarks which have benefit to SLSNZ but no financial value attributed in the financial statements. No financial valuation has been undertaken on these assets.
