Testimonial from Yeppoon SLSC – https://youtu.be/xl1Pt4lTmd4
While we have coached surf clubs for more than 10 years, our Mentor & Coaching Clinics have been running since 2015 with amazing success.
Since this time, we have coach several different surf clubs in the Northern Territory and Queensland. In our 3 day Mentor & Coaching Clinic weekends, we bring 30 years of professional coaching experience with up to 30 hours of coaching, covering nippers, board and surf ski athletes as well as our 4 hour mentor session.
The cost is $750/day plus travel costs (flights / accomodation). The per day rate works out to be around $75/hour of professional coaching as per the structured timetable below.
Our aim is to bring new eyes and experience to your athletes, coaches and age managers so you develop improved knowledge / skills so to continue to development your personal coaching ambitions as well as improving your athletes. We understand a lot of surf clubs already have great and maybe paid coaches, but a lot of surf clubs are also coached by volunteer parents or neither. Our offer is not to replace or undermine their great work but to assist where / if needed.
In addition to the Mentor & Coaching Clinic weekend, we also offer surf clubs 20 weeks of personalised coaching programs for local surf club coaches to facilitate. If you choose to take a three day Mentor & Coaching Clinic, these weekly programs are included. If you choose one or two days, then this offer will be $250 / 20 weeks.
Please see below testimonials from several of our surf clubs who continue to benefit from our coaching services annually.

Carnival attendance will be taking athletes for the morning warm up as well as coaching through the day including race tactics and evaluations.
A structured training program and / or a single coaching session per week will make a massive difference to your athletes improvement and a second set of eyes will enable your current coach to see things they may be missing. Whilst structure is important, we would be more than flexible to work with your club to ensure the above options are suitable. The end result will be your athletes performing at a stronger, more disciplined and race ready level.
We have more than 30 years elite sportsman experience including 16 years as an elite level coach / manager. My vision is to:
