Your worst match will not count after 5 have been fished.

 

Due to fewer anglers being signed up on the first day the league points this year will be 12 for first, 10 for second, 8 for third, 7 for fourth, 6 for fifth, 5 for sixth, 4 for seventh, 3 for eighth. 2 points will be awarded for all anglers weigh/declare and finish outside the top 8 and 1 point awarded for all those anglers who fish but do not weigh/declare. There will hopefully be a total of 6 prizes this year due to only 11 anglers being signed up before day 1.
