Welsh Junior Team generously supported by Porthcawl Surf Shop
The WSF and our Junior team are exceptionally grateful for the very generous support received via our crowd funder. The money from which has been used to cover travel and accommodation costs. Amongst those who have so kindly supported our team is Hugh Murray of Porthcawl Surf Shop who's business has only recently opened at Rest Bay, was delighted to support the junior teams kit and help to cover the not insignificant costs associated with sending a full team and officials to Portugal.
