Hi Mike,

I actually have a registered charity set up on Narrabeen Lake in Jamieson Park Sydney called Narrabeen Lakes Health and Fitness and we do Stand Up Paddling

Hey Mike,

I am a youthworker with Kempsey Family Support Service and we are going to run programs for marginalised young people.We should be up and running early in the new year,just waiting for the boards to be made.I will be doing a full story on here as soon as we are started to sing the praises of the many great people in the industry that have made this possible.
If I can help in anyway let me know,

Hey Clarky ,

Your probably scared now , reckon you guys are a chance against the mighty reds.
Might even invite Parko or Mick back for a demo on a SUP!!

hi

iam a sup monitor and i would like to make a project that involves basically sup and children...

taking it as a long term project and seeing the potential of the children, the ease of the sup for them
and moreover, the respect values they can learn towards nature, i would need info to start:

- make an stand up paddle association (non profit)

- sup and children, any experiences... did you write any project... where can i read information?

- include marginalised young people, this is one of my aims...

- suping for school?? sup as a school sport??

basically iam looking for general information, how to start writing the pillar of my project...

thanks very much for your comments

Hey Mike - There are a few Noosa Schools already doing SUP as a sport.

St Andrew's in Peregian Springs and Noosaville. They also do school surfing and surf live saving. Woogie does a coaching day on Fridays for Noosaville for 2 hours with the kids on Noosa Main Beach. He also does a morning session with Noosaville which is just surfing.

A great way to get more kids involved in a water sport. We have done a full write up and have approached a couple of schools which will be jumping on board next year.

Hey Jodie

How much per session or per head do you charge the school kids, and do they need to wear pfd's.

Done by session and leggies are worn - but also depends on where you are doing the coaching. First question can you swim?
What is the arm signal if you get into trouble?
