Surfwest Issue 6 – 2007 WA Surfers of the Year Awards
Surfwest Issue 6 (Edition 1 2008) contained a feature story on 2007 WA Surfer of the Year Awards. It features a History of the Award, Wave of the Year images and includes Surfer Profiles by sports broadcaster Brad Cecins and reports from Mike McAuliffe & Jordan Marchant.
The Western Australian Surfers of the Year Awards (WASA) is an annual celebration of outstanding performances by West Australian professional surfers over a calendar year. It pays tribute to our rich history of surfing achievement as current outstanding performances are recognized, in the endeavour of encouraging the next generation of West Australian surfers, Appreciating, Recognising, Encouraging.
The five specific award categories are named in honour of four of Western Australia’s finest surfers – Ian Cairns, Jodie Cooper, Murray, Mike McAuliffe and Len Dibben. Not only did the competitive careers of this quartet set standards for others to follow but over the years each has contributed to the development of surfing either in Western Australia, nationally or internationally.
Sports broadcaster Brad Cecins established the concept of the awards in 1999. Through the support of Margaret River winery Evans and Tate, Wilson’s Sign Solutions, Creatures of Leisure, Star Surf, West Surfing Products, srosurf.com and the Margaret River Hotel, the awards were first presented on Thursday 18th April, 2002.
The 2007 WA Surfers of the Year award winners were acknowledged at the Ocean Beach Hotel in Cottesloe on Saturday November 10, 2007.
