BOARD Storage Application

The Ski and Board Rack areas in the Club Boat shed are a valuable club resource. With the growing popularity of board paddling within the club, these spaces are at a premium – demand is now outstripping availability.

The need to store club owned craft is the highest priority; the remaining rack spaces are nominally available for members of the club to store a SINGLE personal craft.

To manage the resource professionally, we have instituted a formal application process for members to request and to be allocated rack spaces in the board storage areas.

Basic Eligibility and Priority Ranking Criteria Applicants must:

1. Be a current financial (or life) member of the club

2. Be an SRC or Bronze Medallion holder (or greater)

3. Compete for Sorrento in both club & SLSWA events

4. Train with Sorrento at least once per week

5. Age Priority: Senior (U17 and above) then Youth (U14/U15) then Masters

6. Other significant contributions to the Club.

If these criteria are met, then their application will be accepted for ranking within the group of members requesting a storage spot. The highest-ranking applicants will be offered the available storage spaces. Initial applications close on 10 of July 2024.

All successful and non-successful applicants will be notified at that time via e-mail. All craft owners without an approved or pending application will be asked to remove their craft. They can apply for any unallocated or future vacated spots at any time during the upcoming season.

Continued use of a rack is dependent on the person maintaining a significant commitment to training and competition as well as fulfilling all other membership requirements. Any member 8 hours down on their patrol obligations loses all privileges and will be asked to remove their craft from the club shed.
