FOREWARD
On behalf of the Management Committee I present the 54th Annual Report and Financial Statement for your
consideration and approval.
A job well done by all those who patrolled our beach this season under the direction of the Patrols Captains, the
Club Captain, Col Mitchell and Vice President Lifesaving, John Gorely. They were all ably assisted by the
Lifesaving Committee and the administration staff. Along with Craig Clarke, I had the dubious task of inspecting
patrols during the latter part of the season. Although there is room for improvement the majority of members were
visibly committed and I felt confident that each patrol could rescue and provide the necessary resuscitation and first
aid if required.
Congratulations to all competitors, team managers, assistants, coaches, office bearers, and Surf Sports Committee
members. The season was certainly one of the best and it may be hard to better but I am sure under the direction of
the Surf Sports Committee anything is possible.
Once again the Supporters Club and Sponsors donated record amounts to the Surf Club and above all this allowed
us to reduce our debt by a substantial amount whilst maintaining and improving the Surf Club environment.
A final commendation to Brian, Maureen, John and all the Office Bearers who have contributed to this season and
the recording of the same in this annual report.
DAVID OXENHAM
Vice President Administration
PRESIDENTS REPORT
Another successful season has just ended with all members to be congratulated on the way in which they
performed their various duties and responsibilities. Surf Life Saving has become an integral part of the Gold Coast,
with tourism especially relying on surf clubs to provide safe beaches for visitors and locals alike. Under the
leadership of John Gorely and Colin Mitchell, our lifesaving services have excelled this season with excellent
patrol attendance and a high quality of vigilance. Congratulations to our Life Saving Committee who have strived
to achieve a level of professionalism and dedication on our patrols and in the education of our members.
The competition year ended on a record-breaking note. This year’s Australian Championships were the Club’s
most successful with 9 Gold Medals. We also achieved 2nd in the Australian Championship Pointscore.
Congratulations to all our competitors who represented Northcliffe with distinction throughout the season from
Nippers through to Masters. Special mention to Hayley Bateup who won 3 Gold Medals including the Open
Ironwoman (Hayley also won the Female Competitor of the Carnival). Great effort Hayley. Thanks to all our
Coaching Staff for a great year.
Obviously in an organization such as ours, there are many members who volunteer their time to assist in the
management and direction of the Club, and it’s activities. Further, I would like to thank all members who have sat
on various committees of the Club and to those members who have helped in many other ways, at making
Northcliffe what it is today. Our major financial contributions have once again come from our Supporters Club and
I would like to thank Mike Deane and the Supporters Club Management Committee for their continued assistance
and their appreciation of the direction in which
the Club is travelling.
Mike Deane and our Patron, Terry Jackman, have again provided our Management with professional guidance and
support through their vast network of supporters and associates. On behalf of the Club I would like to thank Mike
and Terry for their immeasurable assistance over many years.
Thanks also to Sheryl and all the Staff at our Supporters Club for their professional and cordial service to our
members and patrons.
Today’s surf club requires considerable support to an increasing membership and vast array of services for both the
Surf Life Saving and Supporters’ Clubs. Northcliffe’s Staff have the responsibility of the day to day running of the
Club, a task which they all perform in a professional and efficient manner.
On behalf of the Club I would like to sincerely thank our General Manager, Brian Parker, our Manager Lifesaving
& Surf Sports, John Ogilvie, our Administrative Assistant, Maureen Gorely and our Junior Development Officer,
Luke Richmond, for all the time and effort they have put into their respective roles at the Club.
The future of Northcliffe is definitely in good hands with our Junior Activities Committee giving our juniors a
great opportunity to develop their life saving skills and become senior members at Northcliffe. Thanks to Stephen
Fry and his Committee for all the work they do for our youngest and most important members.
Northcliffe is proud to be associated with many companies and individuals that support our Club financially year
after year. We sincerely thank them for their support and hope they continue their association with Northcliffe.
On a personal note I would like to thank my wife, Michelle, for her appreciation of my commitment to Northcliffe
and her constant support.
I hope you all enjoyed the past season at Northcliffe and look forward to seeing you all next season.
DAVID SHIELDS
President
GENERAL MANAGERS REPORT
It is the responsibility of the staff to manage the Club’s facilities and services and to implement the directives from
the various committees and office bearers. If the performances of the season are an indication of success, all staff,
committees and office bearers are to be congratulated on a job well done. Northcliffe completed its 54th season in a
healthy state, patrol wise, competitively and financially. Our reputation as a harmonious, friendly family Club
continues to attract high calibre members willing to contribute for the betterment of us all.
As always the first and greatest tribute must be paid to our volunteer patrolling members who have again delivered
Northcliffe beach another fatality free summer. Our tireless members, under the guidance of Club Captain, Col
Mitchell, have performed over 1000 preventative actions, rescues and first aid treatments. Special mention should
be made of Scott Bradford and Joe Miller for their Gold Certificates presented at the Annual Dinner for
outstanding rescues.
Competitively we have left ourselves little room to improve with a 2nd placing at the Australian Championships
and a win by our masters at their Aussie Titles. Full credit goes to our competitors, coaching staff and surf sports
office bearers for lifting the profile of the maroon star. Even TV commentator Darryl Eastlake had a lump in his
throat as the Taplin Relay team crossed the line for their 3rd win in four years.
The Club’s future, our juniors, had another solid year with our limit of 300 members easily achieved. Under the
guidance of Stephen Fry and his committee, our juniors have had an insight into the life saving movement and
hopefully many of these will carry the torch into the coming decades. Thank you to all the age managers, water
safety officers and officials for your tremendous support role.
Thank you also goes to our staff, Maureen, John and Luke, the volume of work performed by this team has to be
seen to be believed. Thank you also to our sponsors and supporters, your donations and funding of our subsidy
scheme has assisted the Club at all levels. Our Sportsman’s Luncheon continues to impress, a crowd of 350
enjoyed a great afternoon of entertainment and raised nearly $50,000 for the Club.
I see a major part of my role at Northcliffe in the management of our assets and the reduction of our liabilities. I am
happy to report an Operating Surplus of over $284,000 for the year following income of nearly $1,000,000. Our
healthy bottom line meant that we were able to reduce our debt by $207,000 and to inject over $100,000 into
capital improvements to our facilities and equipment. Of course our major contributor was the Supporters Club
who tipped in $635,000 in donations and a further $72,000 in management fees. Thanks for this goes to the
committee under President, Mike Deane and staff under Operations Manager, Sheryl Jones.
As I sat and watched the proceedings at the Annual Dinner I could not help but feel enormous pride to be
associated with this great Club. From Whoopsie’s Life Membership, Rex and Norm’s Australian Sports Medals,
the Robbie Nay Memorial Trophy nominees and the patrol incentive winners, I felt humbled by the talent within
and the tremendous contribution our Club makes to the community. I also spared a thought for those members who
didn’t grace the stage but whose contribution was worthy of equal accolade, our instructors, carnival officials,
committee men and women and the average patrolling member who dons the red and yellow on a windy, wet
Sunday afternoon to ensure that Northcliffe honours its contractual agreement with Council.
The positive human spirit generated by the collective membership is nothing short of amazing and I thank all for
their contribution and I look forward to watching what can be achieved next season.

Club Captain’s Report
CLUB CAPTAINS REPORT
It was with a sense of great pride and pleasure that I accepted the position of Club Captain this season, following
the retirement of Scott Bradford. Throughout Scott’s five year term he was responsible for the introduction of
many initiatives to maintain Northcliffe’s position at the fore-front of Surf Lifesaving. would like to congratulate
Scott on his achievements during his term as Club Captain and thank him for raising the Club to such a level that
my progression from Vice Captain was almost effortless. I must also express my gratitude to Kenny Edwards who
nominated and encouraged me to accept the position of Club Captain.
The objectives of the Surf Lifesaving Committee for Season 2000/2001 were to achieve Surf Lifesaving
Queensland’s target of zero preventable deaths on Northcliffe Beach, to improve the quality of our beach patrols
and to further develop the skills of our existing patrolling members. In an endeavour to fulfil these objectives, the
Surf Lifesaving Committee implemented a number of key strategies including the introduction of internal Club
Patrol Inspections and offering a variety of specialised award courses to existing members. Thanks must go to both
David Oxenham and Craig Clarke for conducting the Club Patrol Inspections throughout the season. These
inspections served to improve the quality of our patrols, introduce a competitive spirit between patrols and increase
the point scores awarded during Branch Patrol Inspections.
In addition, our Chief Instructor Chris Redler, has tirelessly conducted Bronze Medallion courses and offered a
wide variety of specialist award courses almost single-handedly this season. My thanks go to Chris and his small
team of Instructors for their hard work, commitment and persistence throughout the season. I would call upon all
qualified Instructors in the Club to assist Chris
in the training of award candidates next season.
I would like to congratulate the winners (Patrol No. 4) of this seasons Northcliffe Supporters Club Patrol Incentive
Scheme. The competition was very tight with many patrols performing exceptionally well in all aspects of the
scheme. The competition this season was based on attendance at the House-to-House collection, attendance at
Friday Night Raffles, Patrol attendance and Club Patrol Inspection results. I trust the winners will enjoy their prize
and hope that the high standards set this season can be exceeded next season.
Lifesaving at Northcliffe beach, continues to be at the fore-front. The introduction of the new Golden Circle beach
Signage Kits has improved the appearance of our beach patrols this season. The signage kit was developed jointly
by Surf Lifesaving Queensland and the National Safety Council of Australia to increase the recognition of patrolled
areas and to comply with safety standards. I think that all will agree the new kit enhances the professional image of
surf lifesavers throughout Queensland.
Also introduced to our patrols this season were two “waverunners” or jet skis, operated by Branch. These rescue
craft patrol in a similar fashion to the jet boats and provide coverage of black spots and assistance to beach patrols
as required.
Finally, I would like to thank everyone who contributed to the success of the beach patrols this season. They
include all active members, Patrol Captains and Lifesaving Committee members (John Gorely, Rebecca Wood,
Chris Redler, Karyn Wood, David Irvine, Helen Irvine and Elly Van Vliet). A special thanks to John Ogilvie, Brian
Parker and Maureen Gorely for assistance beyond their call of duty.
Let’s maintain Northcliffe as a world leading Surf Lifesaving organisation. Thank you for you efforts this season
and I look forward to
your continued involvement next season.
Yours in Lifesaving,
COL MITCHELL
Club Captain

COMMUNICATIONS OFFICERS REPORT
Despite the millennium bug giving some agro with Maxon batteries and charges, we have completed
our tenth 100% on air season. Costs associated with radios and gear have amounted to $564 and

Two IRB harnesses will have to be replaced before next season because of age and condition. These
were the second and third harnesses on the Gold Coast, the first being taken to Burleigh Heads by
Russell Whitmore who showed it to me at a carnival in 1989/90.
ROC candidates totalled 23 this season and compare with 46 new members who completed their Bronze. We must
strive to even up this figure and have more competent radio operators on patrol. My thanks go again to Tim
Burgess and John Gorely for keeping an eye on radios in my absence. Hours at Gold Coast Command this season
amounted to 66 and I officiated at 21 carnivals.
DAVID IRVINE
Communications Officer
FIRST AID OFFICERS REPORT
This season saw Helen Irvine and myself involved with the education of First Aid and Resuscitation or the Bronze
Medallion Squads and the Nipper U/13’s and U/14’s in the evenings. Helen continued with First aid Senior
Certificate instruction as well. With my time becoming very limited I have not been involved as much as I feel I
should have been. It would be great if nipper parents could show enthusiasm in obtaining specialist Officer’s
Awards. It was great to see a few Nipper parents obtaining their Resus/CPR Awards and ‘yes’ it is possible and
very much appreciated for members to become Award Members by doing a First Aid or Resus/CPR course only.
After all that’s how I myself became involved “decades ago”. HAVE A GO!! Congratulations to the teams who
deservedly won places at Branch, State and Nationals in the Patrol Competition and Champion Lifesaver. Their
prize winning Laerdal vouchers have been used to buy more equipment for them. THANK YOU!
We also received from our Gear Grant a fantastic new First Aid Kid that will be allocated to those teams for next
season. Continue with the effort you put in last season. I wish everyone could attend some of those realistically
based competitions.With a minimum of Marine Stingers about this season, it was a delight not to have to refill the
freezer with ice packs every week. It was also lovely to see that the Patrols clean the First Aid Room at the end of
their day on the beach. A big ‘thank you’ to you all for your co-operation and all the best for the busy learning and
training off season.
ELLY VAN VLIET
First Aid Officer
MARINE STINGER OFFICERS REPORT
It has been a very quite season for stingers. Patrol logs are effectively showing the number of persons stung per
patrol but there is still a need to provide information on the number of stingers observed both in and out of the
water to enable us to fulfil our commitment to the research in this area.
Operational readiness of the defibrillator in the soft pack has been checked monthly.On a personal note, I have
attended 18 carnivals/events in our Branch where 272 patients have received first aid, some for stings, and also
have worked 62 hours at Gold Coast Command.
HELEN IRVINE
Marine Stinger Officer
IRB CAPTAINS REPORT
Another season has passed and the IRB’s have been neglected by Patrol Members once again. Costs were kept to a
minimum until the end of season when one engine seized. This was due to the engine being flipped, followed by
incorrect or poor rollover procedure, and no notes made.
It would be good to see a few more members gain their IRBD Certificate next season as the IRB is an important
rescue tool.
REBECCA WOOD
IRB Captain
BOAT CAPTAINS REPORT
This season turned out to be a successful year. We ended the season knowing that we have a strong future in
surfboat rowing. Both crews finishing second in their respected grades in the VB Cup Final. I would like to thank,
on behalf of both crews, Ray & Judy Jones, Claude, Whoopsie and Rex for looking after us at Coffs Harbour.
Claude and Whoopsie also towed the boat to Sydney and cooked for us at the Australia Day Weekend Carnivals in
Manly.
I would also like to thank our sponsors, Lindores Cranes and Riggering and Quinn Direct Liquor for their generous
sponsorships this year. All crews should be congratulated for this season’s performance and I expect even better
results in the coming season.

VICE PRESIDENT OF LIFE SAVING’S REPORT
We have had a very successful year in patrolling our beach and I would like to thank all Active Members who have
done their patrols. I would also like to thank the Life Saving Committee for helping to make this happen. A special
thanks to our Club Captain, Col Mitchell, who has contributed many hours to make this all work. The statistics
from this year’s patrols are :
43 rescues; 1311 preventative actions. (Next season I would like to see us aim for more preventative actions and
less rescues). We also had 24 first aid cases.
The Patrol Incentive Scheme was very successful in helping to keep our patrols diligent. I would like to
congratulate Patrol No. 4 led by Kenny Edwards (Patrol Captain) - wonderful achievement! I hope they enjoy their
New Zealand holiday. I also hope that this encourages other patrols to achieve the high standard that is required to
win the competition next year. I would like to remind members that it is good for patrols if members obtain as
many Awards as possible - e.g. First Aid, Advanced Resus, IRB, etc.
JOHN GORELY
Vice President - Life Saving
VICE PRESIDENT OF SURF SPORTS’ REPORT
To say that this season was very successful would be a huge understatement. Totally eclipsing our 1998 record of 8
Gold medals at the Aussie Titles - this season saw Northcliffe competitors in an awe inspiring display taking out a
total of 9 Gold medals. My sincere congratulations to all our competitors, without your self sacrifice and months of
dedicated training none of these rewards would be remotely achievable.
Let’s not forget our pit crew - Xact Coaching - “Be the best you can be” sums it all up. Thank you guys for this
people empowering spell you have cast over all of us. The stage is set for many more victories. Thank you to Chris
Harris (Seniors) and Haydon Stokes
(Masters) for your time and dedication in your respective divisions of team management. My praise to John
Ogilvie, Maureen Gorely, Karyn Wood, David & Helen Irvine and all of our other behind-the-scene workers and
officials for their thankless jobs.With next season just around the corner, and many competitors already sniffing for
Gold at Aussies and World Titles (Daytona, USA), the scene is set for a ‘huge’ competitive season.”Set your goals
now and be a part of it”.

Vice President- Surf Sports
MANAGER OF LIFE SAVING & SURF SPORTS REPORT
Here we are again - a season has passed us by, as always is the case, a few problems but nothing big!
The implementation of the in-house Patrol Inspections has created a good challenge and had good effect on our
Patrol quality. We will have to find some new Patrol captains next season as a few of the guys have decided to call
it quits. Patrols this season have had a bad run with surf conditions and the training of our Patrol members in
“Preventions and Surveillance” must be seen as a priority.
The Coaching program in place is A1, and has created great mateship within the Club and the results show we have
stepped up the ladder in placings at National level. Some adjustments must be made in our
Junior Sections for the recruitment/retention of members to the Senior Club. With this problem in mind, the Clubs
Surf Sports Committee have met and reviewed all sections and we will work from there.
Both sub-Committees of Life Saving and Surf Sports must be commended for their work and special praise must
go to Col Mitchell, our Club Captain, Chris Redler, our Chief Instructor, Karyn Wood, our Registrar and Carnival
Nominations Troubleshooter, Chris Harris, our Team Manager, who no doubt was pleased to see the end of the
Aussies, and Maureen in the Office.
Yours in Lifesaving,
JOHN (Oges) OGILVIE
Manager Life Saving & Surf Sports
TEAM MANAGERS REPORT
Gold - Gold - Gold - Gold - Gold - Gold - Gold - Gold - Gold !!!
I’m pretty sure that counts nine Gold Medals - and for those of you who missed one of the best weekends of
competition Northcliffe Surf Club has ever had, not to mention one of the best-ever after carnival parties, all I can
say to you is ….YOU MISSED OUT BIG TIME !!
S E C O N D on the Australian Championship Club point score, but the most important thing of all was we most
definitely won the Australian Championship again for the best Club atmosphere, support for each other, best
cheering on the beach, the biggest smiles and probably the noisiest tent … basically the best Club!!! By far !!!
AND IT FELT SOOOOOOOOO GOOD!!!
There are so many people I need to thank this year for making my job so much less stressful than previous years:·
John Ogilvie - No problem is too big for this man!·
Maureen Gorely - The word ..NO.. does not exist in her dictionary!·
Dick Clements - The results man. If you want to know how many strokes it took you to paddle your last race, Dick
will most likely have it written down somewhere!·
Peter Orwin - The best back up anyone could wish for and current Australian Champion carnival Clown!!·
Sue Walton - This lady might cook great pancakes but she tops that by just being sooooo well organized, always!!·
Jason Brunt - A future Team Manager if ever I saw one!!
My personal congratulations goes out to every competitor this year for such a great job, so professional - well done.
These reports are always full of thankyous and
praises to so many people, but I really do mean it from the bottom of my heart, that this years team of athletes from
Northcliffe have been the most motivating to me by their enthusiasm and level of approach that you all have to
your chosen sport.
There were so many successes by so many throughout the year and we must accept just a few and only a few,
upsets….but if I had to pick out just one thing that really shone out to me.. it was that enormous wave our
Australian Ironwoman Champion - Hayley Bateup caught and held, in the Open Womens Board Relay to help her
team take out the Gold Medal.
Hayley you are a champion and at these Australian Titles you showed that to all of Australia congratulations, so much!!
To Brett, Ty and the coaching team of XACT, guys a fantastic job in your first year of full time involvement with
“The Cliffe”, our future looks so very promising.
I would also like to make mention of our Boat Section - to Brian Hurley and Peter Primo and their crews, guys a
great solid year of establishment and improvement again, with some very impressive results at the right end of the
season - keep it going all of you - well done!!
Three final “Well Dones” … and that goes to Scotty Unicomb and his team of Patrol Rescue Silver Medallists Drew, Damo, Hayley, Trent and Marty....first year in and you were so very close….it’s exciting to think what you
will do when you all get reeeaaallly fair dinkum!!
Second last “Well Done” …to Rex McGlynn and every young nipper who made us look so good in the March Past
competition this year, thanks heaps to all of you…and no Lauren I didn’t forget your special effort to help win the
Club 10 points in the Australian Championships by being our flag bearer in the March Past…you little champ!
This is the last “Well Done”, but also a huge thank you, to the Management Committee and the Supporters Club
for, exactly that, giving so much major support to our athletes and patrolling members throughout this season.
We have had a big year coming up and I would ask you all to think about, how your efforts over the next 12
months, are going to help us all be members of a Club that will get closer to that Australian Club Championship
point score and then head over to Florida, USA, to win the World Club Championship point score in May 2002.
Thank you all……

JUNIOR CHAIRPERSONS REPORT
The 2000-2001 season had plenty of highs and some low points for myself as first time Chairperson, but over all I
would have to say that I have enjoyed the challenge.
Firstly, I would like to thank some people without whom Nippers would not be possible - The Junior Activities
Committee for their time and effort during the season, Brett and Ty Dowker (Xact Coaching) and their coaches for
their expertise in training our juniors. A special thank you on behalf of the Club and the 284 juniors who attended
Nippers during the year to the Age Managers, Water Safety Officers, IRB drivers, etc. and, last but not least, to the
parents who helped out on the beach with Age Managers and in the canteen.
Next season will see some changes to the Nipper program in the way of reduced numbers in the younger age
groups (this has been brought on us by a duty of care requirement by Queensland Surf Life Saving), a more
structured program to help juniors obtain the skills for life saving and competition, and planned trips away to some
of our sister clubs to foster team and Club spirit as
well as to improve competition skills. Many of these changes and more will be finalized in the next couple of
months. The Club had some wonderful competition results during the year, and I would personally like to
congratulate every member from the winners to the team members who just had a go!
Special mention must go to our State gold medallists (Jack Bruton, T.J. Burgess, Meagan Nay and the Under 13
Relay team), but like every story we also had our bad luck chapter - if only! Disqualifications! And so on.
Unfortunately there was also a small page of disappointing results, competitors not turning up or being late to
carnivals and some unsupportive attitudes from a very small number of competitors and parents. Next season will
have more of a “team feeling” about it and with competitors meetings being planned throughout the season I hope
that we can tear that chapter out of the book.

NORTHCLIFFE OUTRIGGER CANOE CLUB REPORT
Well, another Outrigger Canoe Season is fast approaching a close and the Northcliffe Outrigger Canoe Club has
achieved some excellent successes in this current season so far.
Firstly, a trip down to Coffs Harbour early in the year generated what, one, would evaluate as a major Gold Lotto
win in outrigger circles - and that was the random draw win by the Club and its competing members that weekend a brand new Six Man Outrigger Canoe including a set of racing covers - valued in the vicinity of around $10,000.
The Club is now the proud owner of seven six man outrigger canoes, two one man outrigger canoes, one fully
equipped tinny and motor for training purposes, and from the generous donation of use from the James Penny
Group in Brisbane we also have a virtual permanent member of our flotilla (on loan), an eighth six man canoe from
that company.
Total insured value at $80,000!!!
What we are in desperate need of right now is a structure or storage facility to house these pieces of equipment
from the weather in off-season….a storage warehouse, factory or the likes….any approaches to the Club would be
greatly appreciated.
If our Club’s success this season, so far, is built on enthusiasm, mateship, positiveness, training, attitude,
competitiveness and individual input to assist the betterment of the Club, then Northcliffe Outriggers are certainly
on the right track to some very successful times in the not too distant future.
The Gold Coast Cup Marathon Race is definitely heading down a track for international recognition with over
thirty crews competing this year for minimum prize money, which only strengthens the thoughts that our regatta is
attended because of it’s great concept, organization and social reputation. Well done here must definitely go to
Bryan Collister and his team or organizers, once again for making it such a success.
My personal thanks to my Committee in my first year as President….to our Secretary: Sampson Hollywood (the
head letter and email writer); our Treasurer: Bev Chorley (the keeper of monies); our Vice-President: Annie
Valentine (for being a great support in many decisions that have to be made); our Registrar: Dianne Phillips (for
making sure all the T’s are crossed and I’s dotted….always) and to our Boat Captain: Doug Carter (who always
keeps things looking and working, shipshape…always). There are so many other people to thank this season who
will be, as time permits, and that most only indicate that there are so many people doing “their bit” to make the
Northcliffe OCC machine run in the right direction.
If you are interested in being involved we always welcome new members from Under 14’s right through to the
Senior Masters Division (over 45’s) just contact me via the Surf Club. Happy Paddling!
CHRIS “HARRO” HARRIS
President
NORTHCLIFFE SUPPORTERS ASSOCIATION REPORT
On behalf of the committee and members of the Northcliffe Surf Life Saving Supporters Association Inc. I would
like to congratulate all Surf Club members on another successful season. All facets of the Club appear to be
working well under the watchful eye of committee and staff alike.
I am happy to report another solid year of performance by the Supporters Club with financial assistance to the tune
of $707,000 in donations and management fees. With a little under a month to go in the financial year, the
Supporters Club is set to record its 6th year of growth in turnover, membership and profits.
Much of this continued success is due to the staff who enhance the friendly atmosphere at the Club. Thank you to
General Manager Brian Parker, Operations Manager Sheryl Jones and staff for a job well done. Thank you also to
the committee who have steered the Club to its current success.
The Sportsman’s Luncheon was again a success with nearly $50,000 raised on the day. John Garfield and Greg
Ritchie provided the entertainment, Ray Jones and team provided the food and Peter McLean and Tony Freestone
provided the organization. As usual the key to the success is the willingness of our members to get in and help on
the day, and
again there were plenty on hand to make sure the 350 guests had a memorable afternoon.
The bar naming went to a great Club supporter in Mick Power of BMD Constructions. Mick has been a long time
supporter of Northcliffe and was a popular recipient of the award. The Ken Irvine Memorial Trophy for best
Supporters Club member this year went to Dave Perrot. Dave is a local unit manager and has been one of our most
loyal and deserving winners of this award. It was also pleasing to see two of our prominent members in Norm
Lewis and Rex McGlynn receive Australian Sports Medals at the Surf Club’s Annual Dinner.
As the name suggests our role at Northcliffe is to ‘support’ the Surf Club with financial assistance throughout the
year. It is pleasing to see the Surf Club in such a healthy state and I again congratulate President David Shields, the
various committees and office bearers, the staff and the members - your contribution to the community is
commendable and I look forward to being able to continue our supporting role for many seasons to come.

VICE PRESIDENT FINANCE’S REPORT
It is great pleasure that I present the financial report for the 2000/01 season. Thank you to auditors Franich and
Crow for their assistance and professionalism shown throughout the year.
The Northcliffe Surf Club has concluded its financial year in a particularly healthy state. Operating profit is up
$54,224 from last year to $284,780. Our debt was reduced by $207,614 leaving a total debt of $65,110. Much of
the credit for our strong financial position is due to the Supporters Club who has injected $707,000 in donations
and management fees up from $543,361 last year.
The trading account shows a lower return due to a combination of lower sales, the writing off of old clothing stock,
the Club absorbing some of the GST payable on merchandise and a higher purchase price on some merchandise
items.
Thank you to all staff associated with the maintenance and production of the Club’s financial records especially
Fiona Mahoney. Thank you also to all members who have assisted in the fundraising projects throughout the year
especially the Social Secretary Di Burgess. And of course a big thank you to the staff, committee and members of
the Supporters Club for their tremendous assistance to the Surf Club.

Audit Report to the Members
Scope
We have audited the financial statements, being a special purpose financial report for the year ended 30 April
20001 for Northcliffe Surf Life Saving Club Inc. The Committee is responsible for the financial statements and
have determined that the accounting policies used are consistent with the reporting requirements of the Club and
are appropriate to met the needs of the members. We have conducted an independent audit of the financial
statements in order to express an opinion as to whether the accounting policies used are appropriate to the needs of
the members.
The financial statements have been prepared for distribution to members. We disclaim any assumption of
responsibility fro any reliance on this report or, on the financial statements prepared as a special purpose financial
report to which it relates, to any person other than the members, or for any purpose other than that for which it was
prepared. Our audit opinion expressed in this report has been formed in the above basis.
Qualification
As is common for organisations of this type, it is not practicable for the club to maintain an effective system of the
internal control over donations and other fundraising activities until their initial entry in the accounting records.
Accordingly, our audit in relation to fundraising was limited to amounts recorded.
Audit Opinion
