🚣‍♀️ GOTCHA4LIFE 24 HOUR ROW 💙

What an incredible effort from our Mordialloc Lifesaving Club community over the weekend! 🙌

On Saturday and Sunday, our members got behind the Gotcha4Life 24 Hour Row, taking turns on the rowing machines and helping raise vital funds for an incredibly important cause.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who participated, supported, encouraged and donated. Your time and effort helped turn a simple row into something much bigger — building connection, starting conversations and supporting mental fitness. 💙

Gotcha4Life is an Australian not-for-profit foundation focused on building mental fitness, strengthening connections and encouraging people to seek help when life gets tough. Their 24 Hour Row brings communities together to raise funds for preventative mental fitness programs across Australia. (| Gotcha4Life Foundation⁠)

At Mordialloc, we know the power of mateship, connection and looking out for one another — and this was a fantastic way for our club to put those values into action.

💙 Talk. Connect. Check in.
💙 No one should have to worry alone.

Well done, Team Mordy! 👏🚣‍♀️

🏆 THE THOMSON TROPHY — 2026 🏆

A very special award with an incredible history ❤️💙🤍

The Thomson Trophy has been presented every year since 1968, recognising our club’s best worker and club person — someone who goes above and beyond for Mordialloc.

This year, we are incredibly proud to announce Diana David as the recipient of the 2026 Thomson Trophy. 🏆👏

The trophy honours the remarkable contribution of Jack and Ivy Thomson, who were Mordialloc members from 1945 to 1967.

Jack served as Club President for an incredible 18 years and was a Life Member of our club, the Royal Life Saving Society and the South East Beaches Association. He is also credited with securing a £6,000 donation from the Mordialloc Carnival Committee to help build our clubhouse, which officially opened in 1958.

Ivy was one of those indispensable, hardworking members that every club relies on and was made a Life Member in 1959.

The Thomson Trophy is chosen by the committee at our Annual General Meeting and can be awarded to any member — not just someone who sits on the committee. While so many members are worthy of recognition, the award is intended to celebrate one outstanding club person each year.

❤️ Congratulations Diana! ❤️

Your commitment, hard work and contribution to our club make you a very deserving recipient of this prestigious award.

We’re incredibly lucky to have people like you who give so much to Mordialloc. 👏🏆

Congratulations on a very special and well-deserved honour! 🎉
