- The R&R team of the Year Award will be presented at the 2024 Victorian Junior Lifesaving Championships. The award is designed to encourage and recognise participation in R&R at junior carnivals.
- The best three scores from each team will count towards the point score system.
- The points system is based on attendance, achievement, and overall improvement.
Attendance Points:
- Attendance at only 1 carnival: 15 points
- Attendance at 2 carnivals: 10 points
- Attendance at 3 carnivals: 5 points
Achievement Score:
- The R&R score for each carnival will be added together and then divided by number of carnivals attended. This average will then be added to attendance score and the lowest overall points will win. In the event of a tie, the lowest score at the 2025 Victorian Junior Lifesaving Championships will decide the winner.
