The 2007 NTSP National Tour will undertake further camps in NSW, Queensland, Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia later this year.
The Coastalwatch NTSP is an initiative of Surfing Australia’s High Performance Centre (HPC) and is sponsored by Coastalwatch with support from the Australian Sports Commission.
“We are really excited about this project” said Coastalwatch Chairman Kim Sundell. “We really wanted to focus in this area and work with Surfing Australia and the Australian Sports Commission to assist in creating better pathways to the top for young Australian surfers”.
The purpose of the of the Coastalwatch NTSP National Tour is to discover and develop surfers in some of Australia’s regional areas and to offer support and direction as these young surfers embark on a competitive career that could see them surfing professionally in the coming years.
“I grew up in Terrigal and started my competitive career on the Central Coast so I am really excited to get back to where it started for me. Surfing has offered me some great opportunities in life and I am stoked to be able to return to my old stomping ground and help some of the next generation of surfers to develop their competitive careers in my capacity as High Performance Centre Head Coach.” Sasha Stocker commented.
The Central Coast is the third camp of this year’s Coastalwatch NTSP after Sasha Stocker has completed camps in Tasmania and Port Macquarie (NSW) in recent months.
