Our Squads program is an after school program that runs year-round and gives young athletes a pathway to holistically develop and even go on to compete at a high level in their paddle-sports in mainland and international competition.
Our Leadership program provides opportunities for youth and young adults to gain skills and confidence in positive leadership and teaching methods, teamwork, communication, and group organization while also gaining knowledge of ocean safety, skills & stewardship through hands-on water sport and leadership experience
