WOMEN’S WORLD JUNIOR CHAMPION TO BE DECIDED TODAY

North Narrabeen, Australia (Sat. Jan 6, 2007) – With the swell finally coming to the party that is the esteemed Billabong ASP World Junior Championships, Contest Director Luke Egan had no hesitation in sending out the Quarterfinals of the women's division and will aim to have the division completed by around lunchtime/early afternoon today.

The schedule will run with the women's quarters in the water first followed by two heats of the four remaining round three heats of the guys (heats 13 and 14), then the women's semifinals, followed by the two more guys heats (15 and 16 of round three) then the final of the ladies will hit the water.

With the Narrabeen left winding right across the sandbank at around the one to 1.5 metre mark we can expect to witness some red hot action as the ladies battle it out for junior surfing supremacy.
