Green and Gold x 4

Green and Gold x 4 
Last weekend we had a intense 3 day selection camp held down the South Coast, with thanks to Surfing South Africa and the South African Surfing Legends, we were looked after so well, fed like kings and queens and accomodated in the luxury DeRosches Hotel in Margate.

These selection camps are always tough with one 1 slot available on the team and 4 girls all going for it, it was a tough 3 days doing battle , but I'm over the moon to have been selected for the South African Junior Team for the 4th year in a row and even more excited to be heading to California in October for my final ISA World Junior Surfing Championships,

Awesome bunch of people I will be representing South Africa with! 
With a full 8 months until we leave, I will be hard at training with my coach Gary Freeman, both in the surf and in the gym and working closely with Spider making sure I am on the best boards as usual!

This will be the most time I have ever had to prepare for Worlds, so I'm setting my goal now for a finish in the top 10 come World Juniors, it will be my final year as a junior so I want to go out with a solid result!

Next up is a International Friendly against the French Juniors in Durban in two weeks time, I am the defending champion and am not going to give it up with out a fight!
