The Surfer Kids is a registered Non-Profit Organisation 136-987 NPO. Our mission is to "empower marginalised youths through surfing" And more.

THE SURFER KIDS CORE SURF PROGRAMME has been offering free surf lessons to the marginalised youths in the Southern Cape of South Africa since November 2010. Our Core Surfing Programme is based at Diaz Beach in Mossel Bay. The primary focus of our CORE SURF PROGRAMME is introducing young children to surfing. Surfing isn't otherwise normally practised in Friemersheim, or any of the other surrounding marginalised communities. The children are introduced to surfing as a healthy way of having fun! As the children grow within the programme they are encouraged to progress. To paddle to the back-line and surf bigger and better waves. This is no easy task, as anyone who's ever tried surfing will know. Learning to paddle and catch waves takes a lot of hard work. But the reward of riding waves is one of the best feelings a human being can experience !!! This allows for the unique medium of surfing to teach one of the most fundamental and empowering life skills of all: Life may be full of limitations. BUT, by working towards a goal, with commitment, one can accomplish incredible things. Despite our limitations, whatever they may be, as long as we have great goals, if we're prepared to work for it, we can achieve what we've only ever dreamt of. This is the message of hope and empowerment around which we structure our entire programme.

With the competition season behind us, the Sharks team has been taking things a little easier, giving back to the little ones by helping out with surf lessons and enjoying some quality beach time with our beginners. 🦈🏄‍♂️

But when the waves turned on last Friday, the boys were more than ready to get back out there! A full day of cooking waves at home, sharing the stoke and making the most of an epic day in the ocean. 🌊🔥

Lithabo Mthetho fully committed on an innerpool bomb! 🌊🔥

Lithabo has been part of the TSK family since 2020, and we couldn't be prouder of the progress he's made in his surfing over the years. From putting in the hard work to surfing his way into the U14 Boys' quarterfinals at this year's SA Junior Champs, it's been incredible to watch his journey unfold.

The hard work is paying off, and we're super excited to see what the road ahead holds for this young talent! 🤙🏽

Keep charging, Lithabo! 💙🏄🏽‍♂️
