COFFS Harbour Boardriders Club will now get the chance to qualify for the country’s biggest team surfing event in November.
The NSW North Regional Qualifier was scheduled for last weekend in Coffs Harbour, but was rescheduled due to the smaller swell.
The qualifier is now set for Saturday, 15 November in Coffs Harbour.
The Coffs team will try to qualify for the Australian Boardriders Battle Grand Final, to be held on 7-8 March 2026, in Burleigh Heads.
They will also try to win their third straight NSW North Regional Qualifier.
The Coffs team qualified for the 2025 Grand Final after victory in last year’s NSW North Regional Qualifier on their home break.
They made the quarterfinals of this year’s Grand Final in Burleigh Heads.
The Australian Boardriders Battle is Australia’s biggest grassroots surfing series, involving over 80 boardrider clubs in eight state qualifying rounds before culminating in the epic Grand Final showdown featuring 42 clubs.
