Travelling to take on the world’s best Pool Rescue athletes in their own back yard is no easy task, let alone it being your first taste of international competition, but the young NSW squad who made the trek to New Zealand recently certainly made their mark.

A committed contingent of surf lifesavers from across the state made the trek to Queensland’s iconic Coolangatta Beach last weekend to take on one of the greatest challenges in surf sports.

In 2018, the prestigious Coolangatta Gold celebrates its 18th year of competition since it was first run in 1984.

Surf Life Saving NSW is pleased to confirm the participants for the 2018 Junior Development Academy Program.

Bragging rights and glory were on the line last weekend as the best surfers from lifesaving clubs around NSW came together at North Narrabeen for the 2018 NSW Midford Board Riding Championships.

The 2018 Midford Board Riding Championships took place at North Narrabeen between 7 - 9 September. The state's top surfers from as far north as Cudgen Headland and down to Shoalhaven made their way to one of the most iconic surf breaks in the country in an effort to claim a 2018 state title.

Congratulations to every competitor from the under 14s right through to the masters, a solid three days of surfing in testing conditions. SLSNSW is appreciative of the long hours and support of the competition officials, as well as the North Narrabeen surf club, North Narrabeen Boardriders and Surfing NSW who made the event a success. 

The best surf board riders within the lifesaving community are counting down the hours until they can wet-suit up in their quest for glory at North Narrabeen’s famous break where the 2018 NSW Board Riding Championships get underway from Friday.
