MACKSVILLE-Scotts Head Surf Life Saving Club produced a “performance above and beyond” at the weekend’s Country Championships at South West Rocks.
Three Nippers and three Masters competitors returned with four silver and four bronze medals between them.
“A real team effort,” the club shared.
The club finished strongly in 17th position, in a field spanning the Gold Coast to the Far South Coast.
Cudgen Headland SLSC claimed the championships, ending Warilla Barrack Point’s three-year run.
“Nice to get this one back,” its president Adam Mills said.
“Our seniors were winning everything, it was really satisfying as a club to come here and take it home again.”
The difference between first and second was a commanding 300 points, with Port Macquarie SLSC beating out Yamba SLSC for third.
Woolgoolga (6th), Coffs Harbour (8th) and Sawtell (9th) all finished in the Top 10.
Sawtell also won both the Junior and Open March Past.
Also competing in the championships were the SLSCs of Bellinger Valley-North Beach (24th) and Urunga (28th).
