Welcome from President Adam
The SWA would like to introduce you to this year's President. Adam! (Yes, that is a very interesting picture....)
"Hey everyone, and if this is your first SWA article, then welcome to the site and more importantly the incredible world of student windsurfing"
He and the rest of the committee are ready to guide you through the year with a jam packed season of 8 events starting with Aussie Kiss in late October and ending with our BUCS Nationals competition.
As with every year we expect to expect to bring hundreds of new faces into the SWA and into the fantastic sport that is WIndsurfing. A-Level results have just been released and if you are going to be a fresher this September make sure you wing by the Windsurfing stall at your freshers fair.
Humans of the SWA: Ep.1 - 'A 2016/17 Review'
The SWA are very excited to deliver our first instalment of a fresh new media featurette: Humans of the SWA. Heavily inspired by the renowned New York series of the similar name, we aim to bring you the stories and successes from the Windsurfers within our vibrant youth community. Sharing experiences, highs, lows and all things in between, we hope to broadcast the friendship, development and celebrations which pepper our spirited events and beyond. Windsurfing brings us all together and it is through open and passionate engagement, we come together and enjoy the all the joys our sport can bring! But don't just listen to us, here is what you say.
Becoming a Windsurfing Instructor.
Throughout all of our windsurfing journeys, countless factors have changed as we continuously grow and develop. We see vast progression in: the equipment we use; the strength of wind we look for; the skills we practice and the confidence we posses. Despite all of the ongoing advances there is one very crucial constant, critical to unlocking our potential. Our support, our guidance, our instructor. Without their warm words of advice, lines of encouragement and relentless enthusiasm, none of us would be the windsurfers we are today. Those inspirational mentors who dedicate their efforts to showing us the ways of the windsurfing wizards are one of the key reasons we love our sport so dearly.
