Noosa Festival Of Surfing
|
The Noosa Festival of Surfing 2010, day one, the 14th March will be the
open 5 km ocean race presented by Bluewater Players Noosa Heads. The
event is shaping up to be a mass participation paddle in the beautiful
waters of Laguna Bay. There will be 4 categories: sprint open racing,
sprint standard open (12'6" max in length), standard women's and
standard junior (under 18 yrs) but the big draw for the event will be
heaps of random draw prizes so every one is in with a chance to walk
away with something. This will be an event to be apart of so now is the
time to pencil it in to the diaries and check out the info at
www.noosafestivalofsurfing.com.au
Amateur and specialty division entries are now open for the 2010 Noosa Festival, event director Phil Jarratt announced at the weekend. Jarratt said that entries were available foron-line purchase or as a download in 11 age divisions and in 5 specialty events, including money events in Stand Up Paddle, Tandem and Noserider Trials.
The Noosa Festival, now in its 19th year, will run from Sunday, 14 March to Sunday, March 21, with some specialty events to commence on 14 March and amateur age divisions from 15 March. The official opening ceremony and paddle-out will take place from 5pm on 14 March, following the running of a 5K stand up paddle race on Laguna Bay. Competitor registration will be available at the Golden Breed concept store from midday to 4pm on Saturday 13 and Sunday 14.
Jarratt said that the 2010 festival would take approximately 600 competitors spread across all divisions, and that entries in amateur divisions would be on a first come, first served basis. "We've also opened up the family challenge event to the public for next year. It proved hugely popular this year, so we've expanded it to 24 teams. Teams must consist of two generations, eg mother/son, father/daughter."
Jarratt said he was delighted to welcome back lead sponsors Global and Golden Breed, and that further sponsorships would be announced at the end of August.
