Bondi Girls

Surf Riders

Bondi Girls Surf Riders is where girls of all ages and abilities find their place in the water. We build community, push limits, and celebrate every wave.

More than a boardriders club.

A community of female frothers!

Bondi Girls Surf Riders is a proud all-female boardriders club and the only such club on the eastern beaches of Sydney. We create a safe, supportive and encouraging space for girls and women of all ages and abilities to surf, connect and progress.

Through community, connection and shared love of the ocean, we inspire women to take their space in the lineup, back themselves, and become better surfers — together.

Waves are better with your surf sisters by your side

We exist to inspire, educate and progress the surf skills of female frothers of all ages.

From learning the basics to sharpening competitive skills, our purpose is simple: help women grow in confidence, ability and love for surfing — in and out of the water.

Find your people in the lineup

Our mission is to provide a fun, friendly and professional club environment where every member feels heard, supported and encouraged to participate.

Whether you’re chasing your first heat or your next breakthrough, you’re backed by a crew that wants to see you succeed.

At Bondi Girls Surf Riders, we:

  • Create a welcoming space for all skill levels
  • Encourage connection, participation and shared stoke
  • Champion respectful competition and personal progression
  • Listen to our members and evolve together

Grow stronger in the water and beyond

We see a future where women confidently take their place in the lineup — progressing their skills, trusting their abilities, and feeling safe, respected and empowered in all conditions.

A future where female surfers support each other fiercely, celebrate each other loudly, and show up with confidence in the water and beyond.

A message from our Comp Director, John Rich:

“I’m passionate about female surfing. Women have a unique way of dancing a wave — keeping you on the edge of your seat, no matter the level.

Our family were soul surfers (kicked off by my mum, starting in 1938, aged 9), until one day I saw the Bondi Girls Surf Riders tent on the beach and knew it was something my daughter, Laila, could be part of. That year, she won the juniors.

From there, things grew — Regional Champion, State Titles, the WSL Qualifying Series, and The Aussies Silver Medalist — all starting with Bondi Girls Surf Riders.

For the past 10 years, my passion has been helping create a safe, supportive environment where female surfers can start as juniors or beginners, build confidence, and progress to wherever they want to go.

If this club helps women feel confident and respected in the water, that’s something I’m proud to be part of. And if it helps launch a world championship journey — that’s a pretty special bonus.”
