The recent Surf 'n' Turf competition was a fantastic tournament, incorporating the Katch 4 Kids competition organised by Jess and Rory.

We had a total of 31 teams and an awesome turnout for the weigh-in, which was quite the spectacle.

A huge thank you to all our sponsors, including McCormak Transport, Bubbas and Shimano, Gumps outdoors and Ridgeline, Wally Smith homekill and processing, Roofing Specialists Hamilton, 100% Whangamatā, Carters Whangamatā, Whangamatā Scaffolding and Totalspan.
