The 2015 Northland team was named recently following the completion of another hugely successful 2015 Northland Scholastics Surfing Series. With the recent formation of the Northland Surfing Association Inc., the 2015 series was fortunate to benefit from the development of a new base of ISA (International Surfing Association) qualified judges, as well as new contest equipment. A number of the athletes competing in this years series also regularly compete at a national level on the Surfing NZ Junior Series.
The 2015 Northland Surfing Scholastics team is, U14, girls: Grace Pevats (WGHS), boys: Max Brunker (WBHS), Oscar Harper (WBHS), Tom Parker (Huanui College); U16, girls: Billie Scott (WGHS), boys: Jamahl Moselen (Raglan Area School/ Northland), Kalani Hansen (Kaitaia College), Tom Norton (Bream Bay College), Nubby Critchfield (Rodney College); and U18 boys: Sergio Hansen (Kaitaia College), Matt Jensen (Bream Bay College), Kohl Mase (Pompellier Catholic College). Team coach Jason Ruddell and manager Tony Baker.
The team will contest the 2015 National Scholastic Championships in Gisborne from September 28 to October 2.
