Hull & District Match Squad Report
The Squad has had a brilliant year, starting with the NFA North East
Region Championship fished on the Stainforth & Keadby Canal at
Thorne, with 16 teams of 12 competing. A very pleasing result saw us
winning the event for the first time in a great many years. Notable
successes included Phil Iveson coming 2nd overall with 18lb. of chub.
We then moved on to the Drennan North East – Teams of Eight, with
18 teams competing. The Squad tasted success again by winning the
series, with an unrivalled three match wins, two seconds and a fourth in
another. The Squad’s strength in depth showed with Paul Hostick winning
the individual crown and Scott Rispin finishing 2nd, qualifying them both
for the ‘All Winners’ final to be held in early 2009.
Our successful year was capped by us also winning the Humberside
Ancholme League, four wins from the six match series proving far too
consistent for the opposition. We look forward to continued success in
2009.
Tight Lines,
Paul Caygill
