NSW Country Surf Titles

Once again the Country Surf Titles were held at Lighthouse Beach in Port Macquarie. This year all the kids were much better prepared both mentally and physically for the competition. The Surf conditions were challanging to say the least. A 3 metre swell as a strong southerly sweep really sorted out the nippers. This was Ollies first year competing and he did a great job earning a Bronze medal in the u8's wade.

Mackenzie showed why he is well regarded as a board paddler with an awsome effort to get his team a Gold in the board relay.

Lilli had a strong carnival but was unable to compete in her pet event - Flags- because of a venue change. We were very proud of Lill's courage in completing the Surf swim in the massive swell.

Georgia showed great improvment by reaching the finals in all her water events.
Here's a selection of shots
