With a history of over forty years of success, ESA contests are organized at the grassroots, district level on a year round basis. Each District conducts four or more contests per year, and each year the ESA has over 150 competitions along the entire East Coast. From the local District level top finishers are invited to advance to Region competition (of which there are three), then the top finishers in those championship events are invited to the Eastern Surfing Championships held each September at Cape Hatteras N.C. This is the official championship of the East Coast of the United States and is now in its 4th decade!
