With 8 matches in the season, these matches are held at good venue’s and are very enjoyable. Sadly in recent times the number of members attending these matches has dwindled and the Committee would like to advertise these events to all Female members to attend either at the Ladies Matches or with your Partner at the Mixed Pairs Matches.
To book a place at these Matches, details of which are all shown on the 2021/2022 fixture list in your handbook, or for any queries please call Nick Mitchell on 07970 606558

Last Ladies match of the 2021 season and the everything was to play for to calculate the end of year results. Sadly heavy rain and wind all day made matters a little move difficult but by the end of the day the results were as follows:
Kathy 141lb 11oz
Alison 56lb 8oz
Frankie 54lb 8oz
Wendy 20lb 10oz
Last but one match of the season and the last of the Mixed pairs matches this year. A similar problem as the Juniors fishing on this same lake with a few swims overgrown but again we fitted in around the lake. The results of the day were as follows:
Alison & Martin 7lb 13oz
Wendy & Alan 6lb 2oz
Frankie & Nigel 3lb 4oz
Kathy & Nick 3lb 0oz
We had four Ladies in attendance for this match and again like the Juniors some raking was required before the swims could be fished but once that was done we were good to go. The results of the day were as follows
Francesca 6lb 1oz
Wendy 5lb 1oz
Kathy 4lb 0oz
Alison 3lb 5oz
We had four pairs attending this match, which was good to see. The British weather did not disappoint and was everything from bright sunshine to heavy rain. Everyone enjoyed this great venue and the end results were as follows:
Nigel & Francesca 29lb 15oz
Wendy & Alan 22lb 10oz
Kathy & Nick 8lb 12oz
Alison & Martin 6lb 12oz
We had three pairs attending this match ready for the extremely hot weather and not knowing what the venue would bring. Everyone enjoyed the day, even if not the heat and the end results of the day were as follows
Alison & Martin 21lb 5oz
Kathy & Nick 15lb 14oz
Wendy & Alan 11lb 7oz
With our three Ladies in attendance sharing the lake with the Juniors, it did not seem to matter where they were, the heavy humidity meant that the catching was slow going for some and sadly none existent for another. Sadly this meant that the end weights were low but still the day was enjoyed by all and the results were as follows
Wendy 2lb 7oz
Alison 1lb 3oz
Kathy 0lb
Sharing this venue with the Junior match, we had the choice of swims on both lakes, however all three pairs choose to fish the Top Lake. Sadly this meant that apart from one carp caught by Nick, all of the rest of the fish caught were Roach, Rudd and Perch. The results of the match were as follows
Wendy & Alan 14lb 2oz
Kathy & Nick 12lb 1oz
Alison & Martin 8lb 10oz
This is always a good venue for our matches and we had four Ladies in attendance and the sun was shining, what more could you ask……well for the fish to be interested in feeding would be good, however they seemed to have other ideas, so the weights were lighter than previous years and the results of the match were as follows
Francesca 16lb 3oz
Wendy 9lb 3oz
Alison 6lb 0oz
Kathy 5lb 4oz
It was wonderful to see our Mixed Pairs today at the first match of the season. We had 5 pairs in attendance which meant with the Junior match happening at the same time, we pretty much spread out all over this venue. The weather played its part as usual but thankfully the rain stopped after about an hour and the sun came out for weigh in. The results were as follows
Francesca & Nigel 64lb 13oz
Kathy & Nick 45lb 1oz
Alison & Martin 44lb 8oz
Wendy & Alan 28lb 10oz
Stephanie & Dean 4lb 2oz
