Surfersvillage Global Surf News, 11 July, 2012 : - - Gold Coast, Queensland -- After the Sunshine Coast claimed a historic one-point victory over arch rivals the Gold Coast in last year’s inaugural World Surfaris Coast-of-Origin Interclub Series, 2012 will see one of Australian surfing’s oldest rivalries reignited once again. The seven-event World Surfaris Coast-of-Origin, will kick off this weekend, after last month's scheduled launch was postponed due to unfavourable conditions.

The World Surfaris Coast-of-Origin sees surfers of all disciplines and ages, represent their respective boardriding clubs, their region and ultimately their ‘coast’ – uniting Queensland’s grass-roots surfing community in an amazing interclub competition.

Kicking off this weekend (July 14-15), boardriding clubs from Duranbah to Noosa are busy preparing their competitors, ahead of preliminary ‘Area Challenges’ on both the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast. Area Challenges see each coast divided into two divisions, with Club’s on the Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast preparing to do battle.

Sunshine Coast Area Challenge South - Caloundra to Maroochydore
Sunshine Coast Area Challenge North - Mudjimba to Noosa
Gold Coast Area Challenge South -Duranbah to Palm Beach
Gold Coast Area Challenge North - Burleigh to North Stradbroke Island

From there, Sunshine Coast ‘Regional Challenges’ and Gold Coast ‘Regional Challenges’ (July 21-22) will see the best qualifying surfers from the Area Challenges in the North and Area Challenges in the South compete to finalise representative teams ahead of the concluding ‘State Challenge’ where a champion ‘Coast’ will be crowned for 2012.
