Cancelled Events
Rip Curl GromSearch NSW Qualifier Newcastle (cancelled)
Due to the high number of competitors needing to travel from many regional areas across the state, during uncertain and unpredictable travel restrictions, the collective decision has been made to cancel the 2021 NSW event.
Surfing NSW and Rip Curl are discussing options for NSW surfers to qualify for the Rip Curl GromSearch National Final (pending covid regulations allowing a National Final to be held).
Note: All event dates are subject to change due to applicable Covid-19 related government restrictions and NSW public health order amendments.
The highest priority is the health and safety of all competitors and their families, staff, and event partners, as well as the local community with all event decisions being made.
We will be offering full refunds for those who are affected by the current COVID-19 situation or cannot attend the rescheduled date, however, it is important to note that you will lose your spot once a refund has been processed. If you decide to enter the event again at a later date, you will be at the end of the waitlist.
Surfing NSW is monitoring the evolving COVID-19 situation and will provide all competitors with changes as they come to hand.
Next update on Friday, September 10, 2021, regarding NSW events scheduled in October.
If you would like to process a refund or have a query please email events@surfingnsw.com.au
Thank you for your understanding.
