Match details

Our annual Christmas Junior Match at The Sedges Fishery is one of the highlights of the year—a festive finale to the junior angling season! This special event brings together our most committed young anglers for a day of fishing, fun, and seasonal cheer.

Please note: To qualify for the Christmas Match, juniors must have fished in at least 50% of the matches throughout the season. This ensures that the event rewards those who have shown dedication, consistency, and passion across the year.

The match includes festive prizes, a fun atmosphere, and maybe even a visit from Santa! It’s our way of celebrating the hard work and progress of our young anglers—and a great way to end the year on a high.
