The 2023 Skullcandy Oz Grom surfing event concluded in Lennox Head last week with eight new champions crowned across six age divisions, as well as the World Surf League (WSL) Junior Qualifying Series (JQS) Pro Junior division.

The six-day event ran from 6 July to 11 July 2023 and included a World Surf League (WSL) sanctioned Pro Junior Qualifying Series (JQS) event as well as an elite competition for promising grommets in the 14, 16 and 18 year age divisions.

In all 270 surfers competed across the event.

Milla Brown (Bungan, NSW) won the coveted Pro Junior title as well as the U/18 girls division.

Rosie Smart (Sawtell, NSW) came second followed by Sierra Kerr (Coolangatta, Qld) and

Isla Huppatz (Bilinga, Qld).

‘This is the best day of my competitive career so far for sure,’ said Brown. Marlon Harrison (Coolangatta, Qld) scored a late wave to claim the win in the male Pro Junior division.

He nudged out Rico Haybittle (Burleigh, Qld), Tim Bain (Noosa, Qld) and Oliver

Ryssenbeek (Newcastle, NSW).

‘A five-person judging panel comprised of current WSL Championship Tour and Qualifying Series judges were on-site as well as a live webcast that collectively sets this event above any other junior competition in the world,’ orgainisers said.

The Byron Bay FC’s premier league men’s side has come away with a good win and wrestled themselves into top spot in the competition by beating Bangalow 2–0, playing at the Byron Bay Recreation Grounds last Friday night.

Byron Bay scored each of their goals in the later stages of each half.

‘It was a very close, tight game. It had a semi-final feel,’ Bangalow Bluedogs captain Joel Rudgley said.

‘It was back and forth football and you got the feeling that whoever made the first mistake would concede a goal, and that was exactly what happened,’ he said.

The Byron side defended well according to coach Jeremy Sutton.

‘We made a good early save, without it the game could have been very different,’ he said.

‘Bangalow is one of those teams that always come with a lot of vigour. But we showed how much we wanted it in the second half.

‘We also had a great home advantage with a strong, vocal crowd,’ Jeremy said.

With just the one win to their disadvantage the

Bluedogs have plenty left to play for with just four rounds left in the regular season.

‘We are still hoping to finish on top of the table, it depends how we go over the next month or so, before the finals,’ Joel said.

Behind Byron Bay (33) and Bangalow (31) on the table sit Alstonville (23) and South Lismore (21).

Dedicated local rugby union referee Graham Cook achieved the remarkable feat of officiating at 401 first grade matches last weekend.

‘I refereed my first match in 1989, as a way to keep active and to give something back to the game.

‘It’s really good fun. You get flak sometimes, which is not much fun. But it can also be brilliant to be out there helping the players to enjoy their day.

‘There is also plenty of work involved behind the scenes, keeping up the fitness levels and staying on top of the yearly rule changes.’

Of late he has probably been pulling out the red and yellow cards a bit more often than usual but that is a function of the new emphasis on player safety from the administrators.

If anything being well known to the players keeps things running more smoothly ‘as they have learned which buttons not to push,’ he said.

Graham has no plans to slow down and notes that there are officials running around who are 71 years old.

‘I’m still agile enough’, he said.

‘Far North Coast Rugby Union would like to thank Graham for his dedication to refereeing and rugby; rain, hail or shine, week in and week out over the last 35 years,’ zone administrator Wayne Millane said.

Thirty of the performers from Splendour in the Grass will be at the Byron Bay Golf course this Thursday 20th of July 20, to compete in the Music Industry Masters golf contest.

Last year in the inaugural event, the artists went down to the opposing team made up of industry professionals.

‘It is always a bit scary doing something new, but it worked so we are doubling down this year,’ event cofounder and band member with The Rubens, Sam Margin said.

This year the ‘performers’ are back with a team that includes members of Ball Park Music, Eliza and The Delusionals, Skegss, AliBarter, Dune Rats, Kingswood, Bernard Fanning, Ruby Fields, Holy Holy, The Rubens and Grinspoon, at a minimum.

‘Industry professionals’ are other people, from roadies to publicists, who keep the music business going.

Anyone can be part of the event by attending ‘activated zones’ around the course where they can watch the golf, and join in games, raffles and activities. Entry is by donation.

Music will follow the golf in the Club House until 7.00pm.

The nine-hole event tees off at 1.30pm

The event is also a charity fundraiser and this year will be donating to the Go Foundation, Musicians Making a Difference and Hi Neighbour. ‘We look like we can double what we donated last year, so that’s what we are aiming for. Then we want to double that again next year,’ Sam said.
