Want to enhance your skills & knowledge as a surfer?

Well the Surfing Queensland Academy is for you!

AUSTRALIA’S BEST

HIGH-PEFORMANCE PROGRAM

In 2022 Surfing Queensland (SQ) launched the Surfing Queensland Academy (SQA). The program was ​established to provide the opportunities and pathways for our junior surfers in Queensland.


Just one year after launching the program, the SQA saw great success with the QLD state team displaying their ​mastery of surfing at the 2022 Australian Junior Titles. The QLD team was crowned the overall state champions ​and won with the biggest winning margin seen in in over 22 years, proving the success of the SQA. As of 2023, ​Queensland has gone back-to-back winning the title two years in a row. Queensland now aims to win it’s third ​consecutive Australian Junior Title.


The SQA now offers two annual programs:


The Development Program (January - May)

The Australian Junior State Program (July - November)


Support Services

Each program is tailored to ensure ​that our athletes are healthy ​(mentally and physically), including ​performance plans and support ​services to aid with a positive impact ​on their daily performance.

Integrity & Excellence

Our programs are led with integrity ​and excellence with respect and ​consideration of staff, athletes, the ​surf community and all stakeholders.

Best Coaches

SQ offers our athletes access to the ​best coaches in our state. In doing so ​we understand that it is imperative to ​identify, retain and develop our ​coaches to ensure they can deliver ​our programs with absolute precision.

Our organisation continues to build the profile for our SQA to ​maintain status as Australia’s best performance program. In ​order to continue to build this profile, the potential of the SQA ​sits in the quality of our staff, athletes and initiatives delivered.


SQ holds monthly athlete committee meetings and works with ​leading professionals to help assist with our programs. ​Nutritionists, mental health coaches, professional surfers, ​strength & conditioning coaches and judges are just some of ​the many knowledgeable resources we have utilised for the ​SQA.


We provide camp training environments for new experiences ​and opportunities that support our athletes growth and ​development. Surf camps allow our team to prepare for ​upcoming event campaigns to ensure familiarity, functionality ​and pressure testing for collaborative teamwork.


One of our main roles and responsibilities is selecting, ​preparing & taking teams to our Australian Junior Surfing Titles ​to represent our state. Whilst celebrating team success for all ​teams and achievements at this event our main goal is to take ​home our third consecutive overall win.
