There are 14 Championship matches scheduled for the 2015 - 2016 season with points being awarded to the top 12 anglers in each match, plus a bonus point for those who compete but don't score. Anglers may drop their two lowest points scored matches to arrive at their best 12 match aggregate score. The angler with the best aggregate total will be overall champion. There will be both a summer and a winter champion. There is a fee of £4.00 per peg with a £5.00 optional pools with 100% payout of all pools collected. The first three places will be paid out. To enter, please telephone Trevor Sturge on 01223 509734 before 7pm on the day before the match is to be fished.
