Local

Meet people. Get your feet wet. Have fun!

Local competition is where most New England surfski paddlers first get involved. These races are typically small, informal, grassroots events situated close to home, making them easy to fit into a weekly or seasonal routine.

Local races emphasize consistency, skill development, and community over podiums and rankings. They’re a good fit for paddlers who are new to racing, returning after time away, or simply looking for a regular, structured paddle with others.

Below you’ll find a list of the region’s established local race series, including schedules, venues, and (where available) historical results. If you’re looking for a place to meet like-minded paddlers and get involved, this is the best place to start.
