Surfing competition for seniors is on Oct. 31

Huntington Beach is playing host to another surfing competition, but youngsters are going to have to sit this one out — seniors only.

The Southland Senior Olympics Surfing Competition is looking for people 50 or older who can catch a wave. The competition is at 7:30 a.m. Oct. 31 on the south side of the pier.

Surfers will be judged on their maneuvers, fluidity, style and wave selection, and medals will be awarded for first through third place.

The competition is part of the annual Southland Senior Olympics hosted by the cities of Anaheim and Huntington and partnering with the Huntington Beach Council on Aging.

Registration is required by Oct. 26 and costs $25. All participants will receive a goody bag and a T-shirt. To sign up, call (714) 374-1710 or stop by the Michael E. Rodgers Seniors Center at 1706 Orange Ave.
