Junior
Lifeguard programs were developed to provide beach and water
safety training for boys and girls. The programs provide a sound
aquatic background while acquainting participants with the hazards
of the marine environment. Programs provide education and experience
in ocean safety, first aid, rescue techniques, beach activities,
physical fitness, and marine safety operations, while exposing
participants to an environment that emphasizes courtesy, respect,
discipline and good sportsmanship.
Programs
are designed for children ages 9 to 17. Programs will vary in
length and content but participants must meet the minimum requirements
of the agency's program they wish to participate in. Although
programs vary, participants are usually placed into one of four
age divisions:
|
- AA
16
- 17 years old
A 14
- 15 years old B 12
- 13 years old C 9
- 11 years old
Junior Lifeguards are invited to compete at the CSLSA Regional Competition each year in July, the USLA National competition each August, and the California State Games each July.
Junior Guard Annual Contest
Each summer, the CSLSA Junior Guards host a contest awarding one $100 savings bond to the winning entry in each of the AA, A, B, and C divisions.
|
 |
The type of contest is decided each year and could involve posters, photography or essays. The winning artwork selections are entered in the USLA's national contest every November. View winning samples of Bumper Stickers, Posters, Tidebook Covers and Essays from previous years by clicking on the relative words.

Bobby Burnside Memorial Award California Junior Guard of the Year In 2009, the Bobby Burnside Memorial Award was established in memory of Bobby Burnside, son of former Los Angeles County chief Bob Burnside. (Chief Burnside designed the personal plaque given to the winner and the agency plaque that hangs in the lifeguard headquarters for a year.) From agency-nominations (received by noon on the day prior to the Fall CSLSA BOD meeting), the CSLSA Junior Lifeguard Committee annually chooses the Bobby Burnside Memorial Award recipient from the JG of the Year nominees. Congratulations to the winner of the California Junior Guard of the Year:
