Trevor Hendy

Born Aug 7, 1968

Trevor Ronald Hendy, AM is a former Australian professional surf lifesaver.
Trevor Hendy was married to Miss Surf Girl Jacki Dann in 1987. They have 2 children together, daughter Kristelle and son TJ. Jacki and Trevor divorced in 1995 but still remain very close friends. Trevor later remarried to Jo Macdermid and they have 2 children, son Bailey and daughter Jaali.
In 2015, Trevor came out of retirement at the age of 46 for a race with his son TJ at the Australian Titles. What started as a bit of fun turned into one of the greatest moments in Surf Life Saving history as father and son took out the gold medal in the Australian Board Rescue event. They are the first father and son duo to ever win that race in front of a huge crowd at Kirra Beach.
Throughout the late 1980s and early 1990s, Hendy competed in Ironman races, winning the Australian Championship six times and coming second on three occasions. He also won the Uncle Toby's Super Series four times. He was made a Member of the Order of Australia in 1996 for services to surf lifesaving, and is a member of the Australian, Queensland, Gold Coast and Australian Surf Lifesaving Halls of Fame.
