East End Surf Challenge returns after 11-year hiatus
After an 11-year hiatus, the East End Surf Challenge made its official return to the local sporting calendar on National Heroes Day, 26 Jan.
The revival of the event, last held in January of 2015, was spearheaded by brothers and event organisers Nathan and Jordan ‘JJ’ McLean, who also competed in the races.
By taking charge of the event this year, the duo follows in the footsteps of their cousin, Shane ‘Nobee’ Edwards, who first established the surf challenge in 2000. For a more complete summary of the story, please see the below link:
