Beginners

 For Single Handed and Double Handed Rods

Young Beginners:   Young adults 10 years or over are most welcome, providing one of their parents are always in attendance.  I have  outfits  for   these ages that are quite suitable for tuition purposes. My method of helping young people and  keeping their attention. is by introducing  games,  and keeping the overall fun factor going.  I guarantee they will leave with a sense of achievement and a smile on their faces.   I hold A Good Practice & Child Protection Certificate.
