Following a conversation between WSAA Secretary Peter Horbury and Cloughton Rock Anglers Secretary Peter Halder prior to the 2015 - 2016 Season.
Peter Halder suggested reinstating an old traditional inter club match, Whitby Sea Anglers Assoc V Cloughton Rock Anglers.

Secretary Peter Horbury put the idea forward at the AGM 2nd Sept 2015 in his secretaries speech, Point 20.
20. Pete Halder has also been in touch. He indicated there used to be an inter club match some years ago, don’t know if any member can confirm this? Anyway he is proposing we have a match in January when there are no opens. A Sunday day match, suggesting each club puts £40 in to a kitty plus a nominal match fee, say £5 hosted by each club on alternate years with some hot food etc after the weigh-in. An all in all out Heaviest Fish & Heaviest Bag match.
It was confirmed by Chairman William Atkinson such a match took place.
Later discussed in Any Other Business, Point 6.
6. Secretary Peter Horbury recounted the meeting with Peter Halder, Secretary of Cloughton Rock Angling Club. It was proposed to bring back the inter club event, at a time of year when there were no Open matches, say January. Each club would put a nominal figure, say £40 into a kitty, with a £5/angler entry fee for an all in all out Heaviest Fish / Heaviest Bag Match. Hosted on alternate years, with the hosts laying on some hospitality/food afterwards. Seeing how WSAA were having their AGM first, Peter Horbury was to put it to WSAA before Peter Halder could put it to their members should we wish to continue with the proposal. It needn’t be a club match but would be better if it were for both clubs. It was up to members.
Members brought up a few concerns ie Bell Trophy, Amble Open & Ship/Station Inn in that it was not to clash with any of these matches. Boundaries would need to be addressed but in general all were in agreement (it would be a club match with weights etc going towards members tallies) and once put to a vote it was carried unanimously. (After the meeting it was suggested that should Cloughton also agree, then WSAA would like to host the first match.) This message was conveyed to Peter Halder. Their AGM is Thursday 1st of October.

Members embraced the match and awaited the outcome of Cloughton Rock Anglers AGM.
Peter Halder confirmed members of Cloughton Rock Anglers also embraced the idea at their AGM.
The first match would take place in the New Year 2016, when no open matches are generally fished.
It was also agreed it would not clash with the annual Bell Trophy.
Note:- The match is strictly for fully paid up members of either club.
The first match to be hosted by WSAA, with Cloughton Rock Anglers picking the date.
