With the Scarborough Club currently boasting some of the Illawarra's/ NSW's Best Junior Talent, Club President Christian De Clouett said" Both our Under 18 and Under 14 division's this year along with our Girls division was of the highest standard the club has ever seen and with the group of kids we have now in the club I feel we are breeding success and a real competitive culture that these kids will take into their individual surfing pursuits and feel we are definitely raising the bar at Scarborough." This is related to both Riley Killham and Kalani Ball of our Under 14s placing in the Top 10 in the State this Year with Rachel Campbell also finishing 3rd in the State U18 Girls.

The night began with the clubs next generation, 25 Micro Grommets being awarded generous prize bags from this divisions fantastic sponsor Gromz Surf Shop Thirroul.
Christian stated 'You are looking at the future of surfing in the Northern Suburbs.." and whilst all talent was acknowledged particular standouts in the group were Billie Melinz, Keanu Miller, Joel Wood and Luke Rice.

It was also paramount that the club had received such great support to help, encourage, promote and ensure the future success of the club. The club again gave a DP surfboard, a GROMZ surfboard and a perfectwave.com surf trip voucher to 3 lucky club members. Also on the night another DP surfboard was raffled.
