LIFESAVING SPORT & VOLUNTEERING
Lifesaving Sport
In 2012, members of “Greek Lifeguards” established the Hellenic Lifesaving Club (H.L.C.), the first Lifesaving Sport Club in Athens with its main objective to increase awareness and popularity for Lifesaving as a Competitive Sport. H.L.C. is affiliated with both Hellenic Swimming Federation (H.S.F) and Hellenic Federation for Underwater Activities, Sport Fishing and Fin Swimming (HFUA).
A training delegation of H.L.C. attended Lifesaving World Championships – Rescue in Montpellier/France and European Lifesaving Championships in Swansea/UK – in order to obtain the necessary knowledge and experience for participation in upcoming sport events and Championships.
