Albatross Nippers-Nick Marshall

Albatross Nippers-Nick Marshall Albatross Nippers is a nipper program for children with special needs that runs out of Nobbys Beach Surf Club. Established by physio Nick Marshall.

Albatross Nippers is a Gold Coast based nipper program for children with special needs. The Program aims to promote beach awareness, community spirit and fun all within an inclusive surf lifesaving environment. Sunday nippers is a gold coast child’s right of passage and an activity that along with surf education can be the start of lifelong friendships and community engagement. This has previously

been difficult to access for those within the community with special needs. The Albatross program allows children and families that would be otherwise unable to access nippers, come to the beach and join the Surf Lifesaving community. The program is all inclusive and runs alongside selected Sunday Nipper programs.
