Her Wave

Mission: Her Wave

Her Wave works to build a more joyful & inclusive women’s surf culture in NSW by increasing access to surfing, connecting community, providing experiences and enhancing the presence of women in surfing by growing women’s leadership in the sport.

Provide Access

Her Wave breaks down barriers of participation and strives to target untapped markets where demographic, psychological or cultural barriers exist.

We encourage all females of all abilities & ages to jump on board and give surfing a go by creating access to tailored female learn to surf programs and related events that focus on inclusive, fun and safe learning environments.

The Her Wave “Ger Her On Board” program builds female confidence, cultivates friendship, promotes wellness & provides pathways for long term involvement in the sport.

Connect Community

Her Wave aims to connect the dots & introduce female surfers to local established women’s surfing groups to create a friendly, supportive network for female recreational surfers. We will also be working with our surf school, coaching & boardrider club network to deliver initiatives.

Create Experiences

Her Wave has created “Her Experiences” who work with local surf schools & the local community to create unforgettable moments for both recreational and beginner surfers. These experiences immerse females in opportunities that focus on surfing and wellbeing. They get women together in a fun, safe environment to adventure, enjoy the ocean & connect with like minded individuals.

Empower Leaders

We aim to enhance the presence of girls and women in leadership & officiating roles by providing opportunities to develop skills & support females in surfing through Lead Her.

Celebrate success

”Celebrate Her” aims to create channels to tell stories and create experiences that acknowledge & celebrate the role of women in and out of the water. Specifically, celebrating elite athletes in pushing boundaries, breaking down barriers & overall paving the way for the next generation of female surfers. “Celebrate Her” also zones in on those avid surfers who have used surfing as a tool for making change in their own lives, communities, and the world at large, inspiring more women to participate in the sport

Delivery Arms & locations

Our team work with our 47 Surf Schools & coaches up and down NSW coastline to facilitate the Her Wave program and help subsidise associated costs to help raise the number of local women getting involved.

Participation Costs

Surfing NSW is a not for profit organisation & Her Wave activities are dependant on availability of grant funding or sponsorship to stage. User paid methods are available for confirmed groups.
