The Kozii Iron Challenge has been on the Queensland Surf Sports calendar since 2016 with over 300 nippers attending the inauguralĀ event at Raby Bay. Since then, the event spread as far north as Cairns and south to Mornington, Victoria.
Once the COVID restrictions were lifted, the Kozii Iron Challenge has become an annual event at Mooloolaba, North Burleigh and Raby Bay, making a 3-Race Series. Each event attracts over 250 nippers from all states across the country.
Kozii swimwear has been the major sponsor of the event since the beginning. Race One came on board in 2023 as a sponsor. The main aim of the event is to provide our young surf competitors the opportunity to participate in 3 iron person races in a round robin format and, for those highly competitive members, to race for the Age Group Champions trophy.
