Members of Horsham Life Saving Club took part in the Sussex Lifesaving Championships, held in Crowborough against other clubs including Beacon, Crawley and Littlehampton.

Horsham members performed extremely well against some really tough opposition and were in the top medal positions in most age groups entered.

The events involved two 90 second incident scenarios of dry land first aid and aquatic rescue, where competitors had to judge the best priority order to rescue six casualties in various states of distress. They also did timed events, with a line throw rescue over, a swim and a non-contact tow rescue.

Horsham club members were:
