•First Timers.
•Ladies.

(All categories obviously conditions dependant!)
Registration will take place at 9am on the Saturday morning.
Entry fee will be €10 per event, with the proceeds going to the R.N.L.I.
There will be small prizes/mementos for the winners of each event, and some sponsored prizes raffled at the prize giving.
The competition will be run as professionally as possible but maintaining a "fun for all element." All competitors will be asked to help with judging over the weekend, and in the process gain some knowledge on competition surfing and scoring.
Location will be called on the Wednesday before the comp, and will be somewhere in the Sligo/Donegal region. If conditions look completely unsuitable, the event will be postponed.
Looking forward to seeing you all there, and fingers crossed we get conditions and attendance similar to last year.
