The National Coarse Fishing Federation of Ireland (NCFFI) are organising the All Ireland Youth Feeder Championships, which will be held on Lough Allen in Leitrim on Saturday, October 26th. This event will identify the best all-Ireland youth feeder anglers in the age categories U15 and U25.

Entry is just €10 with items of terminal tackle for everyone and medals & tackle prizes for the top three in each category – booking is available through the NCFFI website.

Because the championship will be played out on Lough Allen, in Country Leitrim, it will mean that the championships have reached all the provinces over the years.

Participants will meet at 08.45 at O’Scollans Gala Car Park, Main Street, Drumshanbo, Co. Leitrim N41 T9T2

  • Under 15’s will fish at Heron’s Shore from 11am to 2pm

The event provides the ideal opportunity for Feeder Manager Brenton Sweeney to talent spot and grow future teams for the world stage to follow in the footsteps of our Silver Medal winning U25 Team Ireland Feeder of 2024. All welcome.
