A very near full turnout of 47 young anglers fished the Sainsbury's Norfolk School today, one of the best turnouts of the School Games so far!

The 3 hour match which started with some awesome goodie bags of usefull tackle and bait from this year's sponsors Sonubaits, Korda, Preston and Middy.  Big thanks too to our bait supplier Rodney Finch who helped with some maggots.

Big thanks to the volunteer stewards today Phil Nichols (Lacons AC), Keith Ashley, Terry Lear (Codgers AC), Kelvin and Mel from the Angling Trust, Dennis Willis and Judy who helped the day run smothly, untangled some tangles and remided competitors it's a team match, catch anything that swims and maggots really do work!
