Weekly board training

We run board training every week, Wednesday and Friday. On Wednesday there is a lake session for U9’s and beginners at 4.15pm-5:30 with Jan or Kylie. At 4:15 at the beach there is a shortboard session with Frank and 4pm longboard session with Trent. Keep an eye on Facebook for any changes.

Master’s training

Masters can join Jan/Kylie at the lake or Trent at the beach on Wednesday and Friday. There is also a 8:00 am Saturday session for swim and board.

Point Score

Point score (timed swim and board and NEW EVENT 1 or 2 km run) for both seniors and juniors will start November 14. The swim for the seniors will start at 8:30 am followed by the board and 1 km run. To encourage more juniors to get involved, the junior point score will be at 11:00 am after nipper finishes – we are hoping to alternate swim/board/1 km run one week and iron person/1 km run the following.
