Lake Lurleen State Park will host two Alabama International Novice Tour (INT) Wakeboard Tournaments on August 2-3.

Wakeboard, kneedboard, wakeskate and wakesurf riders of all skill levels are invited to compete. “From beginner to pro-level, anyone can take part in the Lake Lurleen tournaments,” said Mike Townsend, one of the event organizers and owner of Mike’s Water Sports Lessons in Northport, Ala. “We have a division for your skill level no matter your age. We encourage everyone to come out and compete or to just watch.” During the Lake Lurleen tournaments, competitors also can earn points toward competing in the INT Eastern Region Championship which will be held at Lake Jewel in Florence on September 26-27.
