As the Official Real Estate Partner of the event, the Gold Coast’s leading independent real estate firm has secured naming rights for the Coastal Real Estate Gold Coast Pro Trials, which took place this past weekend at the iconic Snapper Rocks. The partnership represents a commercial commitment to the third stop of the 2026 WSL Championship Tour (CT). In addition to the naming rights for the trials, the agreement includes on-site signage and the continuation of the “Coastal Water Cam” broadcast integration, a high-visibility asset that embeds the brand into the live global transmission of the event. Highlighting the importance of local commercial support in delivering world-class events, WSL APAC president, Andrew Starkk, said: “Coastal is a strong Gold Coast brand… so WSL is thrilled to see them continue their partnership with the league in 2026.” “Their passion and commitment to surfing is reflected in their support of not only the Championship Tour event, but of the Trials and of Gold Coast competitor, Liam O’Brien,” Stark said. Emphasising that the investment transcends traditional real estate marketing, founder and managing director of Coastal Property Agents, Dane Atherton, noted: “Global events like the Bonsoy Gold Coast Pro are genuinely transformative for this community.” “When the world’s best surfers arrive at Snapper Rocks, the eyes of the world are on the Gold Coast, and that visibility matters enormously… for every local who calls this place home,” Atherton remarked. The Trials event featured a field of 16 men and 16 women, exclusively comprised of Gold Coast and Queensland surfers. The winners of the men’s and women’s divisions were each awarded a high-value wildcard spot in the main Championship Tour event, providing local talent with a direct pathway to compete against the world’s elite.
