Volunteer work in the field of surfing
The wide sea, the sun on your skin and the sound of the waves - surfing definitely gives you a very special feeling of freedom! Why not combine this lifestyle with voluntary work? A surfing project allows you to get involved in social activities while taming the waves.
The main thing is to help the trainers with the children in the various sports activities – be it surfing, swimming or fitness courses. Otherwise you help with childcare or in English lessons, go on trips with the children or support events. The tasks are very varied and are not just about surfing - so you are welcome to bring your own strengths and ideas to the table!

Why you should volunteer in surf projects
Surfing is more than a sport - it's a way of life. It connects, strengthens self-esteem and ultimately is a lot of fun. The volunteer projects in this area are intended to give children who are growing up in difficult circumstances the opportunity for joint activities. In this way, the volunteers help to motivate the children to be active and learn.
Goals of Volunteering in Surf Projects
As a volunteer in the surf project, you can contribute to the development of the children and improve both your own fitness and that of the children. You teach the young people a new skill and through the time together you strengthen your sense of community, learn from each other and at the same time build a connection to the sea and nature.
Requirements
For our surf projects you don't necessarily need experience on the board. Safe swimming skills and the joy of working with children are important. If you also have the ability to work in a team, initiative and a willingness to learn, you will certainly be an asset to the project!
