Sports Listings: Sunday / Surfing: British Club Championship, Woolacombe
The weather has played havoc with the scheduling of the British Inter-Club Championship. The oft-postponed competition, shortened to one day, will now be held off the beach at Woolacombe, north Devon, this Sunday. The forecast, however, is sunshine, with winds moderating throughout the day. Should the surf at Woolacombe be unsuitable though, two alternative venues have been earmarked. Putsborough is south of Woolacombe on the same beach. Lynmouth is east of Woolacombe. Croyde, the local surf club, have won the Championship for the last three years and should prove unstoppable on home territory.
How to get there: Woolacombe, north Devon, is south-west of Ilfracombe and north-west of Barnstaple. The championships start at 9am. If conditions at Woolacombe are not suitable, two other sites will be tried. Putsborough is south of Woolacombe. Lynmouth is about 10 miles east of Woolacombe (B3343, A3123, A339 and A39). A notice will be posted at Woolacombe, should the championships be moved.
