DID YOU KNOW?
 

The red and yellow colours found their way into surf lifesaving clubs from the international code of naval signals in which the sign for “man overboard” is a square divided diagonally between red and yellow.

Blue and white flags had been used in the 1920’s to mark safe bathing areas. In 1935, these were replaced with the red and yellow flags although the colours were divided diagonally, unlike the horizontal red and yellow used today.

In 1939 Surf Life Saving decided that all patrolling members should wear red and yellow quartered caps to make them easily identifiable to the public. Today, over 35,000 active surf lifesavers proudly wear the red and yellow caps.
