'Ally's Catz' is our intermediate level coaching program for 'Kids Club' graduates.

"My daughter absolutely loves attending the Progress Surf Club every week, she is constantly developing and gaining more and more confidence in the water. The club is great for both her physical and mental well-being, the instructors make the lessons fun and provide a lot of support to the learners. As a parent it’s good to know that there’s a club that can offer children this opportunity locally, along with fact that they are safe and supervised in the water"....Kate
