There are a number of issues associated with staging a contest. Not the least of which is the insurance. Venue location, securing permits, generating sponsorships, insurance for the event, spectator's, boats, participants, etc. The EASIEST way to achieve all of that is by forming a club and having them provide the sanctioning of the event. The NWL is probably the most cost effective way to do that and by forming your own club, you are able to dictate the when, where and how components. HOWEVER, you have to undergo their specific training for safety, etc. That means attending their courses based upon when they are available. The AWSA will gladly share our rules and recommendations for staging an event, however, they are wakesurf specific. I would very much appreciate the opportunity to work with you Kit as all of us focus on expanding the sport.
