Stella Green`s stunning victory at the Newcastle Pro Junior highlights her rise in the WSL, showcasing emerging talent.

Stella Green from the Sunshine Coast has made waves in the surfing world by clinching her first-ever World Surf League (WSL) victory at the 2025 Newcastle Pro Junior. Battling through fierce competition at Merewether Beach, Green triumphed over a formidable lineup, including Janire Gonzalez Etxabarri from Spain, Meika Locke from Australia, and Sky Brown from Great Britain in the final. The challenging conditions tested the mettle of all competitors, but Green`s skill and determination shone through, securing her place at the WSL World Junior Championships later this year.

In addition to Green`s remarkable achievement, Illawarra Sports High School showcased their prowess at the Australian Interschools Surfing Championships, dominating the senior women`s and junior boys divisions. Their impressive team performances underscored the depth of talent emerging from the region, further elevating the profile of Australian surfing on the international stage.

As the WSL Australia/Oceania Junior Qualifying Series continues, the excitement builds for the upcoming World Junior Championships, where young surfers like Green will look to leave their mark.
