Congratulations! With a completed Swim Kids 10 certificate, your swimmer can begin their training to become a Lifeguard and/or Swim Instructor.
• Rookie, Ranger & Star Patrol are the best next step for swimmers who have completed all their Red Cross Swim levels or the Bronze Star level in the new Swim for Life Program. We recommend Bronze Star (offered in the summer) candidates between 11-12 years old.
• We recommend all leadership candidates start by taking Standard First Aid at the age of 12 years.
• Once your swimmer is 13 years of age, they can register in our Bronze Medallion courses. They must also have completed a Standard First Aid certification course before registering.
