About Us

SUP Vic Inc. was established in April 2009 and is now one of the largest SUP clubs in Australia.

Fun, social, family or something competitive? SUP Vic looks to have events and resources for all our members.

If you are starting your SUP journey our friendly club will help you get confident on the water and help you meet fellow paddlers.

SUP Vic all started from a few emails between some regular stand-up paddlers. Our members now live across Victoria, from as far as Portland to Lakes Entrance, with the majority based in Melbourne and the greater Melbourne Metro area.

Our aim is to keep SUP Vic a vibrant, fun and multi-faceted club for its members. If you want to support us in this, check our sponsorship page.

SUP Vic exists under the auspices of Consumer Affairs Victoria (CAV). Our financial year operates from 1 May to April 30 and we operate under a constitution derived from CAV’s ‘Model Rules for an Incorporated Association.

SUP VIC Mission Statement

SUP Vic’s purpose is to develop the sport of stand up paddle boarding throughout Victoria and to encourage participation at all levels and across the various disciplines of the sport, including flat water cruising, fun paddles, surfing, racing, down winding and new branches of the sport as they emerge. In all its activities, whether social, training and or competitive, SUP VIC aims to be wholly inclusive of women, men, children, minority groups and people with special needs and to provide a safe and fun environment for all to enjoy the sport now and well into the future. Furthermore, SUP Vic undertakes to liaise with industry, retailers, government agencies, land managers, like-minded clubs and associations and peak bodies at state and national levels, to promote safety, facilitate ‘demo’ days, organise family-friendly events, promote junior development and generally improve the standard of the sport through introductory lessons, training programs, skills and technique coaching and high level competition.
