ABOUT Oscar Starr-Thomas
I am thrilled to share that I have been selected to represent Australia as part of the Australian Open Team at the Commonwealth Life Saving Championships in Swansea, Wales, in July 2025. This opportunity means the world to me, and I am reaching out for your support to make it happen.
I have been involved in Surf Lifesaving from a young age, starting in Pool Rescue events when I was just 11 years old. Over the years, my passion for Royal Life Saving and Pool Rescue has grown stronger, and I’ve dedicated countless hours to improving my skills and techniques. After competing at the World International Lifesaving Titles in 2024 with the Maroochydore Surf Lifesaving Club Youth Team and helping our club secure the Overall World Junior Title, I realized I had the potential to take my passion to the next level.
In January 2025, I competed in the Australian Royal Life Saving National competition in Sydney, where I achieved personal best times in all of my events. As a result, I was selected for the U19 team. Following this, my selection into the Australian Open National Team was a recognition of my hard work, dedication, and performance.
To represent Australia on the world stage, I am raising funds to cover the costs of travel, training fees, and new equipment that will help me perform at my best. This is a self-funded team, and your support will directly contribute to my journey to Swansea, where I hope to achieve even greater success, improve my times, and make Australia proud.
I care deeply about this sport and this opportunity because it represents everything I’ve worked toward. It’s not just about competing—it's about pushing my limits, showcasing the skills I’ve developed, and honoring the Australian Life Saving community that has supported me throughout my journey.
With your help, I am committed to training even harder, refining my techniques, and ensuring I am fully prepared to represent Australia to the best of my ability. Every donation, no matter the size, will go toward making this dream a reality. Thank you so much for your support—it means everything to me, and I can’t wait to put my best foot forward on the international stage.
