The 2017 champions

The focus of the surfing world will again turn to Kiama when junior surfers from across the globe land here to compete in the WSL Jeep World Junior Championship at Bombo Beach from 4-12 January.

At the last World Junior Championship, Macy Callaghan and Ethan Ewing were crowned World Junior Champions, hoping to follow in the footsteps of Kiama’s own Sally Fitzgibbons and current World Champion, Gerringong’s Tyler Wright, who launched their careers by winning the event.

Thirty-six male and 18 female competitors from over 30 countries will be taking to the waves, with live reporting around the world from a large media contingent. Watch the action online or get down to Bombo in person.
