The NSW Ski Patrol Association was formed in 1969 and is an accredited Search and Rescue Group under the NSW State Rescue Board State Rescue Policy.
The Association represents the various ski patrols who themselves have in excess of 350 members. In our relatively short ski season these member patrols assist over 5000 injured skiers and boarders on the NSW Ski slopes and cross country trails. Keeping in mind the short season of around 15 weeks and the distance most volunteer patrollers travel to work, the number of accidents attended is a remarkable feat.
The NSW Ski Patrol Association is affiliated with the national body, the Australian Ski Patrol Association, and the International Ski Patrol Organisation - FIPS. The NSW Government is a sponsor of its work.
There is a high degree of camaraderie amongst the ski patrols in NSW and each one works in the best interests of the boarders and skiers of NSW.
New volunteers are always welcome. To join contact the patrol directly.
