Fishers Green are hoping to repeat the success of last winters series by inviting visitors from any nearby clubs who have no racing for the winter period. The series runs through from the start of December to the end of February.

The club is prepared to offer average points for anyone missing the early December races due to overlap with their own club program.

Last Winter the series was especially competitive and won by the Merlin Rocket of Duncan Salmon and Ruth Hanstater. They fought off challenges from several other Merlins and held their handicap from the Solo and Laser fleets, the Merlins benefitting from good breezes for much of the series.

The first race is 1st December and all are welcome with the new Winter Trophy up for grabs!

Enter via the website or when you arrive on the day.

You will find our clubhouse newly refurbished, our access road vastly improved and our residual shallow patch finally removed, so all positive stuff!
