We are pleased to announce the upcoming interactive Online Women’s Judging Workshop, designed to elevate women in surf judging through practical learning, open discussion, and shared experience. This workshop, which will take place on July 9, 2026 from 11 AM – 2 PM Pacific, supports the ISA’s commitment to advancing gender equality in surfing by increasing access to judging education and creating more pathways for women to grow as technical officials within the sport.

Led by experienced judges, the session will explore real heat scenarios, judging criteria, wave comparison, and pathways to starting a judging career. This is not only a technical workshop; it is an opportunity to hear candid conversations from women working in judging, explaining how they approach a heat, manage difficult calls, build consistency, and continue developing their confidence and judging style in competitive environments.

Whether you are an aspiring judge, active official, athlete, or coach, this workshop offers valuable insights, practical takeaways, and the chance to learn directly from women leading the way in surf judging.

The application deadline is July 5, 2026. Participation will be free for approved applicants. Selected participants will be notified in the weeks leading up to the program. The workshop will take place July 9, 2026 from 11 AM – 2 PM Pacific.
