Eighteen surf clubs from Raglan to Far North, including Omaha and Mangawhai, have a decision to make as to whether to dissolve the Surf Life Saving Northern Region, in favour of joining Surf Life Saving New Zealand.
It follows a six month review conducted by an independent chair. Surf Life Saving NZ chair Denise Bovaird has recommended to northern clubs that they hold a special AGM to vote on a course of action.
In a letter, Ms Bovaird says northern clubs need to agree on the level of support they require and how they would fit into a national structure.
“We consider it would be prudent for clubs to first negotiate a structure that will allow their voice not to be diluted before committing to any new structure,” she says.
