2006 Peugeot SA Masters Championships
A Surfing South Africa premier event
St Michaels on Sea, KZN South Coast, South Africa
August 24 - 27, 2006
2006 Peugeot SA Masters Surfing Championships all set for St Mikes in August
The tournament, which caters for surfers in four different categories and features teams from all eight provinces, will be celebrating its second year of action at the famous St Mike's point break and once again will cater for surfers in the Senior Men (28 to 34), Masters (35 to 44),Veterans (45 to 54) and Legends (over 55). The surfers will compete for individual honours in each of the divisions while at the same time generating points for their provincial team. The winning provincial team will take home the Peugeot Trophy which was won by the hosts, Southern KZN, last year. The eight provinces that are expected to participate are Southern KZN, KwaZuluNatal, Western Province, Border, Eastern Province, Zululand, Boland and Southern Cape.
The event had a baptism of fire last year when huge surf pummeled St Michaels during the first three days of surfing and forced organisers to move the final day to the Bay of Plenty in Durban. Team lists are expected to finalized by mid August and will include many of South Africa's current as well as former champions and National team members. A souvenir brochure on the event will be produced by the hosts, Southern KZN Surfing Association and will be available at the opening function of the tournament on August 23.
