UPDATED: 5th August 2008

 After a lengthy break  we're back for 2008 ..... and ... rumor is big things planned for the year .....

NEXT POINTSCORE SUNDAY 10TH OF AUGUST 

  Its on again, meet at North Beach car park at 07.00. There will be Surf Dive and Ski 15% discount cards available to all WABA members.  There will also be WABA t shirts available in small and medium sizes fo the bargin price of $15.

   As some of you may be aware the Ports Authority is Planning to close the road to Oilys to the public.  This will make access to one of our areas best surf breaks very difficult.  Local surfers Steen Barnes and Brendon Leo are organising a group to see what can be done to prevent this. The Surfrider Foundation are involved and a website http://www.save-oilies.org/ will be up and running in the near future.

   Heres some photos of the quality waves that Wollongong has had over the last few weeks.
