The Volunteer State and Regional Duty Officers become the link between our 25 Clubs and Services response capability and Tasmania Police or other Emergency Services, the 13SURF response system is manned 365 by our volunteer State Duty Officers with support from Regional Duty Officers.

State-wide Carnivals - Round 4 |
With three Statewide carnivals finalised the point scores for the Juniors is producing some interesting results. Burnie and Clifton Beach continue to hold off a group of clubs including a resurgent Penguin, Port Sorell and Carlton Park. Bridport, Devonport and Ulverstone are not far behind. With the State Junior Titles at Penguin late February interest will focus on the host club taking a win. Clifton Beach have had the better of Burnie so far this year in the Seniors and with a ‘home ground” advantage at the next statewide carnival Clifton will want to hold their form.Most clubs are pulling out relics from the past to compete in master events and bolster points.
