🛶 Help Our JUNIORS Ride the Wave 🌊
The heartbeat of our sport isn’t just in the water — it’s in the next generation.
But right now, some of our youngest paddlers are stuck on the shore because they simply don’t have the gear to get started.
We’re officially launching the NSW Junior Paddle Library, and we need YOU to help bridge the gap.
Why this matters
Led by NSW Junior Director Rere and the NSW AOCRA Zone, this initiative is about more than just equipment — it’s about:
🌱 Breaking Barriers
Helping new clubs kickstart their junior divisions.
🌊 Keeping Kids in the Seat
Ensuring our Tamariki, our Rangatahi, our Juniors, our Young people stay connected to the water, regardless of access to gear.
🛶 Building a Legacy
Growing the future of Australian Va’a / Outrigging from the roots up.
Got a spare paddle?
Whether it’s one gathering dust in your garage or extras your club no longer uses, your donation could be the reason a junior paddler hits the water for the first time.
