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.

Structured Mentor & Coaching Clinics

Mentor & Coaching clinics (upward of 30 hours of Professional Coaching) can be designed around your current needs and included several different sessions with a single day. Recently in Darwin and Gove we ran the below program:

Friday afternoon (4-6pm) – We coach the local board (nipper and senior) athletes (and / or surf ski paddlers) while surf club coaches / age managers watch

Friday evening (7-9pm) – Social get together with athletes, coaches, age managers and parents

Saturday morning (5-7am) – We coach the local surf ski paddlers with the surf club ski coach assisting

Saturday mid-morning (8-10am)- We coach the elite nipper athletes on water and beach activities while surf club coaches / age managers watch

Saturday lunchtime (11am-3pm) – Mentoring program with coaches / age mangers for 3-4 hours

Saturday afternoon (4-6pm) – Board (and / or surf ski) training / coaching while local coaches / age managers practice new coaching skills

Sunday morning (6-8am) – Intermediate / advanced surf ski training / coaching / race tactics / advanced skills

Sunday nippers  (9-11am) – We attend and watch coaches / age managers practice their new coaching skills during normal nipper Sunday session

Sunday lunchtime (12noon-2pm) – Open / General coaching session for athletes / surf club coaches who would like a little extra

Sunday afternoon (3-5pm) – Open / General coaching session for athletes / surf club coaches who would like a little extra

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.

 

Mentor & Coaching Clinics (upward of 30 hours of professional coaching over three days)

We have more than 30 years elite sportsman experience including 16 years as an elite level coach / manager. My vision is to:

  • assist your current coach with better training practices and provide someone to communicate / bounce information off, or
  • assist volunteer coaches with a better understanding of technique and skill development, or
  • assist athletes with a structured training program, technique and skill development and race tactics.
