It's a wrap! Last Sunday saw the final chapter play out in the selection process for Western Province’s team, which will compete at SA champs in Plettenberg bay this September.

Conditions were good and challenging for the 4th and final trial held at Witsands on Sunday, 5th August 2007. Competitors arrived to find clean 2-3f sets pulling through and the waves where exceptionally glassy. It was a good to see the guys going big and busting out, in their final attempts to gain the last few points necessary to prove themselves for the upcoming team announcement.

Good all-round riding was seen from all divisions, and in the PRO Division, Daniel Worsley was a stand-out. Jason Selby impressed with his form in the Boys Division, showing that his Plett performance was not a one time deal. Towards the end of the day, the Mens division had one of the toughest heats, with Peter Lambert, Jamie Higgins, Simon Heale and JP Nortje all going head to head and hoping to secure a place in team.

Overall, WP has had good trial series. Trials where held in predominantly left breaking conditions and hopefully the team selected will be strong enough to bring back the fisherman’s trophy this year. Also note that WP Champs are being held this weekend, 10-12 August, with the venue to be confirmed this Friday, 10 August. It's going to be big, so don't miss out on the action!

The WP prize-giving and team announcement will take place on Friday 24 August, at The Italian Club in Rugby, near Milterton. Directions too the venue will be posted on sixty40 within the coming days.

WPBA would like to thank their sponsors, organisers, moms, dads, riders and to everyone who came to show their support for making these Trials such a success.
