Orewa Members compete at The 2023 Battle of the tasman
Congratulations to our Orewa members - George, Charlize, Rae and Kailin who raced well through 4 days at The Battle of the Tasman in Gold Coast Australia, under the NZ Cap for NZ Youth and Pathways Teams. They had some awesome performances at both the pool and the beach against some of the best surf athletes in the world. Some had to step out of their comfort zones to do races they wouldn't normally have done.
It was a closely contested competition, but Surf Life Saving Australia eventually came out on top with 292 points, compared to New Zealand’s 229 points.
Despite tough offshore conditions there was great racing and lots of learning opportunities with everyone doing Orewa proud!
