Kayo Sports will provide more surfing action partnering with Surfing NSW to stream its biggest ever line up of grassroots surfing tournaments live and free via Kayo Freebies in 2022.
The partnership will see six key Surfing NSW events added to Kayo’s unrivalled surfing offering, beginning with the Vissla NSW Pro Surf Series on 24 February.
Headlined by the new Challenge Her Teams Classic which aims to build a more inclusive female surfing culture and increase participation (held across March, April and July), the other Surfing NSW events streaming on Kayo Freebies include the Oz Grom Cup (April), Junior Shortboard State Titles (August), Manly Junior Teams Event (September) and the Australian Open of Surfing (across September, October and February 2023).
Kayo Sports CEO Julian Ogrin said: “Kayo is thrilled to partner with Surfing NSW to showcase some of Australia’s brightest surfing talent.
“Now everyone can watch these community surfing events live and free on Kayo Freebies, making surfing content more accessible than ever to Australian fans.
Surfing NSW CEO Luke Madden said: “Surfing’s debut at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics was a great launch pad for the sport and our homegrown athletes, and it’s only the beginning,” said Madden. “Sports fans will now be able to watch our future stars on their journey to greatness and we’re so stoked Kayo is here to enhance that experience and help surfing reach more people.”
Kayo will also have the Gold Coast & Sydney Surf Pro events of the Challenger Series available LIVE to stream in 2022, with more than 1100 hours of WSL content to be broadcast throughout the year.
2022 marks the 13th year of the WSL’s partnership with Foxtel.
