    Fishing: Thursday 4th, Friday 5th and Saturday 6th Oct

    Our dates remain aligned with the last weekend of the QLD school Holidays but as the School holiday have moved slightly so does the comp date. Which will mean no clash with the AFL Grand Final! This also aligns with NSW and VIC school Holidays.

    *2012 Prices will be confirmed soon and registration open . There is a good chance that we will need to limit entries to 200 Teams and it will be on a first come first served basis.
