Preparing the Next Generation for the Highest Stage

For the U8–U12 age groups, the WW Surf Academy will be offered in all 3 regions — North, South & Central. In each region, our Academy players will be developed by top coaches following the same curriculum and game model to ensure that they have the best environment and opportunity to graduate onto our GA or MLS rosters when they hit U13.

Our Competitive Edge: Unmatched Value, Zero Extra Cost

In addition to the standard 3 team practices per week and league play in the WPL, all WW Surf Academy players in the U8-U12 age groups will have access to our internal Surf Select program consisting of weekend training sessions throughout the year and two high-level, local tournaments free of charge.
