WOOLGOOLGA Longboard Club is preparing to host its annual Classic next weekend, 2 – 3 November.

This year’s competition is being held at Arrawarra Headland and Middle Mullawarra.

“Around the country, every club has an annual contest, and this one is for the Mid North Coast area,” club treasurer Michael Addison said.

“We are going to have over 100 entrants, including some Australian champions.

“It’s a chance for everyone to catch up, and we get people coming from all over the state and even from interstate.

“Arrawarra Headland is renowned, so the chance to compete on that wave is a big drawcard.”

Woolgoolga and District Longboard Club was established in 1989 and has continued to prosper through the participation and enthusiasm of its local volunteer members.

Anyone interested in entering this year’s Woolgoolga Longboard Classic can contact the club at woolgoolgalongboardclub@gmail.com or club secretary Deb Winter on 0411 343 152.
