Shoalhaven Young Professionals
SYP is a sub-group of the SPBA and is a social group for young professionals around the Shoalhaven.
Meeting monthly, events range from getting together for lunch, taking advantage of the fabulous walks and hikes around the area, through to joining the annual SPBA barefoot bowls evening.
We understand that because businesses are smaller than those in a larger city, there is often not the same opportunities to socialise after work - and we aim to change that with SYP.
Who is SYP for?
The Shoalhaven Young Professionals is for anyone aged between 18 and 35 OR, anyone new to their profession or industry. Whether you work for someone else or run your own business, you’re welcome at these events, as are your friends and/or partners.
There is no membership fee or on-going commitment - at each event everyone simply pays for their own food and drinks and gets down to socialising with like-minded young professionals. These events create great support and friendships, which help new businesses thrive.

FAQ's
Q: Is there a membership fee for SYP?
A: No! There is no annual fee for being a part of Shoalhaven Young Professionals, our aim is to connect people together who live and work in the Shoalhaven. We just ask that at each event, everyone pays for their own food and drinks.
Q: Do I have to RSVP for events?
A: Yes please. As a lot of our events involve meeting for lunch or other activities that require us to let a venue. We need to know the expected numbers, so an RSVP is appreciated. The details of how to do this for each event are always included in the emails or on the facebook posts.
Q: I’m 36 - can I still join SYP?
A: Of course, the ‘age limit’ is really just a guide and we will still welcome you with open arms. We also openly welcome people of all ages who are new to their industry or professions.
