Amongst the competitors is Jay Occhilupo - son of 1999 World Champion and born-and-bred Cronulla surfer Mark Occhilupo - who will be competing in his first Pro Junior event and his first time surfing on the beaches his Dad grew up on.

"I'm super excited to surf in my first ever Pro Junior event," said Jay Occhilupo. "I haven't surfed at Cronulla before, so to do this event where my Dad grew up surfing is going to be sick. Hopefully, I can get a good result."
Also joining Occhilupo will be current WSL Junior Tour rankings leaders Alister Reginato and Molly Picklum.
The main base for the Hydralyte Sports Surf Series presented by Hyundai is North Cronulla with backup locations of Elouera and Wanda.
