Victorian Junior Surfing Team heads north for Woolworths Australian Junior Surfing Titles

Surfing Victoria are stoked to announce Victorian Junior Surfing Team presented by Surf Better Now that will head to the Woolworths Australian Junior Surfing Titles this weekend in Queensland.
 
Held on North Stradbroke Island, the event will host 180 athletes with teams from each surfing state competing in the prestigious event.
 
30 of Victoria’s best up and coming surfers will compete with surfers to watch including current ISA World Champion Willis Droomer (Jan Juc), Victorian State Champions Emily McGettigan (Torquay), Sara Hickson (Rye), Will Watson (Shoreham), Jarrah Cicero (Sandy Point), Jarvis Barrow (Jan Juc) and Dune Pruvot (Jan Juc).
 
“It is really exciting to be gearing up for the return of the Australian Junior Surfing Titles” said Surfing Victoria High Performance Coaching Director Cahill Bell-Warren.
 
“It feels like a decade ago Victoria won our maiden Champion State trophy in WA back in 2019”
 
“This squad of junior athletes are ready to rip in at Straddie, effectively they’ve put in three years of work with the Surf Better Now team in preparation for this event”
 
The Opening Ceremony will be held on North Stradbroke Island on Saturday November 26th with surfing to begin on November 27th. The event will be completed by December 3rd.
 
Surfers will compete in individual divisions including Under 14, 16 and 18 age groups along with Allstars and MR Shield Schools divisions.
 
North Stradbroke is home to beach break and point breaks that work in a variety of conditions. The main base for the event will be Main Beach, Point Lookout. However the event is mobile with numerous options available within a close proximity including Cylinders beach.
