Does your Junior Surf crazy kid want to step it up a notch, start training more and compete in surf sport events? Then the Oceans programme is for them!
OCEAN DEVELOPMENT OR OCEAN ATHLETES?
OCEAN DEVELOPMENT
The Ocean Development Programme offers an extension of the skills learnt in our Sunday Junior Surf Programme. It is the first step into surf sports for kids in the under 10 age group, but is also an ideal stepping stone for any beginners in the under 11 – under 14 age groups who have not previously done any surf sports. During Ocean Development, participants will primarily learn board paddling, but will also touch on elements of beach skills and surf swimming when the conditions allow.
Note: under 9s will be considered on a case by case basis if they are a strong swimmer and can achieve the 200m badge test.
OCEAN ATHLETES
Our Ocean Athletes Programme is for kids in the under 11 - under 14 age groups. Ocean Athletes train multiple times a week and compete in local, regional and national events throughout the season. They learn a variety of skills including board paddling, surf swimming, rescues, beach flags, beach sprints and team events. The Ocean Athletes Programme runs through to the big finale of Oceans ’25 in February at Mount Main Beach.
Don’t delay, get them signed up now – OCEAN ATHLETES STARTS NEXT WEEK!
Block One of the OCEAN ATHLETES Programme takes place during the two weeks of the school holidays (starting Monday 30th September). BUT don’t worry if you are away in the holidays, or your kids need a well deserved rest, you can still sign up to the programme and start in Term 4.
OCEAN DEVELOPMENT starts in Term 4 so if you’re making plans for next term already, now’s the time to sign up!
