OPENING DAY OF THE WOOLWORTHS SURFER GROMS COMP SERIES AT CRONULLA CALLED OFF DUE TO FLAT CONDITIONS

Published on 04/12/2021

Day one of the eighth event on the 2021 Woolworths Surfer Groms Comp Series at Cronulla has been called off due to flat conditions.

The second day of the event will hopefully resume tomorrow with the Under-8s, Under-10s and Under-12s all hitting the water, while the Under-14’s division has been cancelled. 

Close to 80 competitors are expected in the event.

All competitors and spectators must abide by the COVID-19 regulations that will be in place on the event days.  

Regarded as one of the major steppingstones in the development of young Australian surfers, the 10-event Woolworths Surfer Groms Comps series caters for surfers from Under 8 to Under 14 and will be held in New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria, Western Australia, Tasmania and South Australia over summer.

As an added bonus, the respective winners of the Under 14 boys’ and girls’ divisions from each event will receive an invite to attend an all-expenses-paid, three-day Woolworths Surfer Groms Comps National Final Surf Camp, (1-day coaching clinic, two days of competition and heat analysis coaching) at the Surfing Australia High-Performance Centre (HPC). For the South Australian, Victorian and Tasmanian events, the Woolworths Surf Camp prize will be awarded to the highest place Under-14 Boy and Girl who reside in that respective state.
