The Open division of the Auto-Sleepers British Bodyboard Nationals is due to take place next weekend on either the 1st (Saturday) or 2nd (Sunday) of November. The BSA will make the call on Wednesday of next week to decide which day looks best; so keep your eyes peeled for a further update.
Competitors should assemble at Porthtowan at 8.00 for re-check-in to be completed by 8.30. First heats in the water at 9.00am to start the competition for the £1,000 first place prize.
