End of Year Presentation – Friday November 17 – The 2017 EOY Awards night & Presentation will be held at Malabar RSL in the top floor function room (previously sky bar) on Friday November 17 from 6.30pm. Members, their families & friends are all welcome and encouraged to come along.
Rocking up to the beach early on Saturday morning you would of thought it was middle of winter. A fresh southerly was blowing, it was cloudy and cool but at least we had waves. There was a fun 3ft swell running and we took over the nice little A-Frame in front of Southend Surf Club.
We introduced a stack of changes this year so no one really knew what to expect. Moving the event from winter to spring, change in format, moving from twinnies and single fins to the Softlite and Mullet boards and passing of the baton to younger captains.
Introducing the team captains for this weekends Sands Paul Baxter Shield. Yes fine specimens they are…n’t…. Team drawn by darts this Thursday night at the Sands from 6pm. So come down to check it all out.
The Baxter Shield is day is all about having fun, wacky outfits, bad surfing being rewarded, a few cold ones and grooving to the DJ on the beach. So we are stoked to announce that Softlite and Mullet Surfboards have jumped onboard as event sponsors.
Both companies will be providing us with a stack of boards for competitors to use at this years event. There will also be spare boards for others to use and mess around on whilst they are waiting for their heat. We will also be raffling off a new board on the day.
