These past two weeks have been very busy ,but that's the way I like it. On Friday 29th March I flew down to Cape Town with the rest of the Amanzimtoti High School Girls Hockey side to take part in the Cape Sports Festival in Stellenbosch.
In between winning all our games and the tournaments we also had some free time which we spent at Ratanga Junction theme park, riding roller coasters all day, so much fun, we also spent some time at the V&A Water Front .
I arrived home to be absolutely spoilt but my sponsors with a whole new waredrobe, The 2013 Lizzy winter range is sick, everyone should get down to a Lizzy concept store and spoil them selves :)
Just a day after getting back from hockey tour, I was in the car for the 8 hour drive to East London for the second event in the Billabong junior Series, The contest had to be moved from Nahoon beach to Gonubie because of a sewage spill.

I had a bit of a rough start to the event getting a 2nd in my round 1 heat, and had the semi finals up a bit later, the semi was a very tough heat, with the situation changing with every wave ridden, thankfully I got a good one near the end of the heat which put me into the lead and a spot in the final.
The final was help on Sunday morning, in small , inconsistent low tide waves,I had 2 short rides before getting my first counting wave which as a 5.25 which put me into the lead, which i backed up with a 7.75 to take my second win of the series and the much needed R 5000 winners cheque, thanks to Billabong, BOS Ice tea and Sony SA for another great event. I have had a dream start to the series and look forward to the remaining events.
