THE 2022 Burton Automotive Surfest Wildcard Trials will be staged at Birubi Beach on Saturday, February 26.
The event will decide the wildcard entries into the WSL Men's 5000 Surfest Newcastle Pro, the WSL 5000 Surfest Women's Pro and WSL JQS 1000 Lake Mac Pro Junior for men and women.
The three hugely anticipated and popular Hunter surf events return to Merwether and Redhead beaches in March and April.
The Port Stephens Surfest trial is open to men, women, cadet boys and girls (16 years and under as of December 31, 2021).
Winners of the 14 and 16 years boys Port Stephens trials receive free entry and the number one seen into Surfest's cadet events.
"The Surfest trials each year are a very important event for male and female surfers who are trying to make their mark on the WSL world qualifying Tour. Past winners of the trials have always surfed exceptionally well in the main events, at times surpassing their wildest expectations," Surfest organiser Warren Smith said.
