Surfing State Finals

On a perfect winters day, with offshore winds and rare sunshine, the Scotch surfing team competed at Trigg in the State Finals. This was the first time that we had teams in all four finals divisions. Thank you to Riley Walker (Year 12, Shearer) for organising the boys as Captain.

Our Junior and Senior surfers performed very well as far as the second round, and went out to Bunbury and Hale respectively. Our Senior bodyboarders, Harley Waddell (Year 12, St Andrews) and Thomas (Tom) Palmer (Year 12, St Andrews), progressed to the State semi-finals and went out to Mandurah College in a tense count-back-of-every-wave score.

Our best result came from the Junior body-boarders Nicholas (Nick) Verryn (Year 9, Alexander) and James Waddell (Year 9, St Andrews) who did brilliantly and reached the State Final, coming second to Margaret River Senior High. Well done to all - this was one of Scotch's most successful seasons to date.
