patrol and roster

Our patrols operate on a three-week roster cycle, ensuring that all members have clear and consistent schedules throughout the season. Rosters, important updates, and contact details will be shared directly via email and also made available on the club website for easy access at any time. If you need to arrange a patrol swap or have any questions about your rostered duties, please reach out directly to your Patrol Captain in the first instance, or to the Club Captain if further assistance is needed. This process helps us maintain smooth communication and ensures patrols are always covered effectively.
