Surf Squad | Surf School Wales

YOU’RE IN!
GET READY FOR SURF SQUAD!

The start time is the time the session will start so you need to make sure you give yourself enough time to change into your wetsuit before the scheduled start time - so aim to arrive atleast 10/15 minutes before - this may particularly be needed if you have never worn a wetsuit before.
As soon as the group are ready they will head to the beach and therefore if you arrive late, you will be required to check in and then take your child down to the waters edge and make the coach aware they have arrived
We strongly advise that parents accompany the children down to the waters edge and are present for the duration of the session in the event of the child needing assistance with their boards, first aid needed or a trip to the toilet.
If you can’t make one of your sessions you will not be able to move to another day. If you can't make one of your sessions let us know so we know not to expect you - you can message us on our website chat, social media channels or email us.
If we have to cancel due to bad weather we will move the session to an alternative date or provide you with credit towards a future booking.

BEFORE YOUR SESSION

The session will start at the scheduled start time
Arrive 10-15mins before the start time to allow time to get changed into your wetsuit
On arrival please make yourself known to a member of staff who will check you in and give you a wetsuit
Head to one of the surf stations which will be set up with a board, a bucket and your rash vest
There are no changing rooms so we recommend you wear your swimsuit under your clothes - we also sell changing toweled robes for £25
Once changed, place your belongings into your bucket
You will then have a safety briefing on land

HEADING TO THE BEACH

Pair up to carry your boards - its a lot easier! Our coaches cannot help you to carry boards therefore please assist your child if they need help carrying the board to the beach.
Parents/Guardians are strongly advised to stay with children for the duration of the session
Surfboards will be placed in a semi-circle for any demonstrations
You will carry out a warm up before hitting the waves
If you need assistance on the waves in the water then your coach or volunteer may be able to help - please ask for assistance.

AFTER YOUR SESSION

Approx 5/10 minutes before the end of the scheduled finish time we will head back up to your surf station
Please place the board on the railings, remove your wetsuit and place it in the allocated bucket along with the rash-vest
Remember we dont have changing rooms so make sure you have a towel/changing robe to get dressed
Our team will remove the equipment after you have left ready for them to be deep cleaned
