COMPETITION FORM :
2 day river comp - 3 x 2 hour sessions with competitor controlling.

The recent growth in SFFNZ membership and the resulting increase in comp entries has meant we need to change how we handle river competitions to make it fairer on all.
The system for the rest of the season will be as below, at the end of this season we will review this and see if we can further improve it. 

Entries for all river comps open for a period of 2 weeks and then after they close if there are too many entries for the number of beats available a random draw will be held to see who gets into the competition.

Those that miss out will get priority entry for the next competition if they enter, priority will not be carried forward if you do not enter the next comp.

The organisers (max 2) will get first priority if they enter. 

For the Mohaka we will again be giving Auckland based anglers first priority (for the last time) and next will be those that missed out on the Whirinaki comp (if they enter).

PS, we have added 2 more river and 1 more lake comp to our calenda to help the situation, updated calenda here > https://www.sffnz.org.nz/index.php/download_file/view/809/658/1/ 

The organisers will finalise the field and communicate it. 

The accommodation at this venue is limited and we will need to control the booking. Please indicate your preference on the form. 

Accepted entries will be asked to pay fees
