To join this level, these advanced swimmers must be able to: front crawl and back crawl for 100 metres each, breaststroke for 50 metres, scissor kick and eggbeater kick for 15 metres each, and underwater swim 10 metres to pick up an object. In Rookie Patrol: Swimmers will enhance their capability in the water, including stride entry, underwater forward and backward somersaults, lifesaving eggbeater kick and increased fitness levels to meet a 100 m timed swim. Rescue skills involve an increased skill level in ABC first aid basics, victim recognition and non-contact rescues. In Ranger Patrol: Swimmers will further develop their front crawl, back crawl and breaststroke over 75 m each, a 100 m Lifesaving medley and timed 200 m swims. First aid focuses on assessment of unconscious victims, treatment of victims in shock and obstructed airway procedures. Star Patrol: Participants develop lifesaving and first aid skills; further refine front crawl, back crawl and breaststroke over 100 m each; and complete 600 m workouts and a 300 m timed swim. Lifesaving skills include defence methods, victim removals and rolling over and supporting a victim face up in shallow water. An excellent preparation for the Bronze Star award.
