The sport of lifesaving is not very well known in the county, but it is one that is becoming ever more popular and one that competitors in Mayo are good at. Over the years the Mayo Senior Lifesaving teams have won numerous national titles both in the pool and at the beach (surf), while also having their fair share of international representatives.

A Mayo team of 12 travelled to Inchydoney Beach recently to participate in the National Nippers (eight to 14 years) surf lifesaving championships. The team all performed terrifically and were rewarded with four silver national medals.
