The Canadian Swim Patrol provides enriched training for those who are ready to go beyond learn-to-swim with three levels – Rookie, Ranger, and Star.

Swimmer 8 - Ranger Patrol

The Canadian Swim Patrol program is the on-ramp to lifeguarding. Swim Patrol’s three levels – Rookie, Ranger, and Star – continue to develop participants’ swim strokes and provide the skill foundation that prepares them for success in the Society’s Bronze medal awards. Ranger Patrol is for swimmers aged 9-12 years.

Stroke Development

Swimmers develop better strokes over 75 m swims of each stroke. Skill drills develop a strong lifesaving foundation.

Lifesaving Sport

They tackle Lifesaving Sport skills in a lifesaving medley, timed object support and rescue with a buoyant aid.

First Aid

First aid focuses on assessment of unconscious victims, treatment of victims in shock and obstructed airway procedures.
