SCHOLASTIC SURF SERIES
MIDDLE SCHOOL STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS
APRIL 18 & 19, 2015 – OCEANSIDE HARBOR SOUTH JETTY
The Scholastic Surf Series a Division of the WSA completed its fifth year of competition Saturday & Sunday with the Middle School State Championships at Oceanside Harbor. Twenty eight (28) Middle School Teams from Santa Cruz to San Diego traveled to Oceanside to compete in some of the best waves of the season in search of a State Championship Title. The weather and sand were hot with kids and parents hopping from tent to tent in search of some shade for those burning feet while out in the water the kids were ripping up the perfect 3 to 4 foot waves only Oceanside South Jetty can provide. Middle school surfing has evolved into a hotbed of rising young talent taking their surfing to the Next Level and it was on display at the SSS State Championships. We wish to thank our sponsors for their support throughout the season and providing prizes and awards for the competitors at the event: Firewire Surfboards, Oceanside Longboard Surfing Club, Sima Corp., Sticky Bumps, SuperBrand Surfboards, Surface Sun Systems, Surfline and the Western Surfing Assoc. (WSA). Awards were given for both Sportsmanship and Scholastic Surfer. We also wish to thank the coaches and parents for supporting our scholastic surfing kids.
