Meet our member Will! Will is

Meet our member Will!

Will is Bondi Surf Club’s Welcoming Officer, and has the coffee cart out the front of the Club. So, he is perfectly suited to welcome prospective and current members.

If you are heading down to the beach or into the surf club be sure to stop and say hi – and perhaps pick up the best coffee in Bondi! Nothing better after some training at the beach!

The cart operates 7am to 1pm Tuesday to Friday and 7am to 3pm on weekends, offering coffee, tea, hot choc, chai latte, and cold drinks including water (in plant-based packaging) and coconut water.

The final rounds of the Nutri-

The final rounds of the Nutri-Grain IronMan Series are happening in Kurrawa Beach this weekend.

We introduced you last Friday to one of our founding members and a great athlete, Tibby Fletcher. He was so important to the club we have named a patrol after him.

This weekend a young member of the Fletcher family is continuing in Tibby’s footsteps as a great athlete and Lifesaver. Corey Fletcher who came 4th in the rounds at North Bondi a few weeks back will be competing at Kurrawa.

Here is his profile if you’re interested in following him:
