Northland have had a hugely successful year for Scholastics with the Northland Scholastics Surfing Committee running a series of three events across Northland.
They scored great waves at Ahipara, a few fun ones at Sandy Bay with the grand finale being held in superb waves at Ruakaka's "Power Station". The level of surfing was very high and amongst the entrants were some of New Zealand's hottest up and coming surfers.
It is with great pleasure that the Northland Scholastics Surfing Committee has named the 2010 Team that will represent Northland at the National Scholastic Surfing Championships to be held in Gisborne from the 5-9 October 2010.
Please see below the 2010 Northland Scholastics Surfing Team:

Along with the waves, and the surfing, the 2010 Series has gained a massive amount of media exposure and support, and Northland Scholastics Committee would like to thank everyone for the support and commitment to surfing in Northland. Also thanks to Ben Kennings and the team at Surfing NZ for their ongoing support as well as Sport Northland.
The first planned team gathering will be the Polar Bear Classic hosted by the Northcoast Board Riders at Sandy Bay on 7th-8th August 2010. The team will be running the North Coast Board Riders Food Tent and all proceeds will go towards team expenses to travel to the National Event in October. We are also planning a team camp to Mimiwhangata for coaching and team building purposes.
Northland Scholastics are actively seeking sponsorship for the 2010 campaign and have hugely appreciated all the support we have received from the Northland Community so far this year.
