Bio
Dominique Stitt started her surf lifesaving journey in green caps at Kawana Waters SLSC on the Sunshine Coast, QLD. This season she moved up the beach to Mooloolaba SLSC, and gave herself a goal to qualify for the 2023/24 Nutri-Grain Series – a goal she achieved when she got the call up to join the world’s top IronWomen ahead of Round 3 in Maroubra. Outside of racing and training, Stitt works as a casual lifeguard and is studying a bachelor of paramedicine.
