More than 500 Junior lifeguards are about to get their first taste of competition for the summer. The youngsters, aged seven-13 years, will descend on Orewa Beach for the Northern Region Junior Surf Interclub carnival on Saturday, November 25. Around 10 clubs from the Northern Region are expected to participate.
It’s a full-day carnival which will see them competing in the events of beach sprints and relays, a run-swim-run, board races and relays and a mixed rescue relay for the 12 and 13 year olds.
The carnival is a participation event, without finals, and it will provide an opportunity for many of the youngsters to ‘learn the ropes’, particularly if they are new to the sport. The first event is at 8am.
