FFA’s 2018 World Fly Fishing Championships team
I am very pleased to advise that through the application of the objective selection process that was introduced in June last year we have now complete the selection our the team members for the 2018 World Fly Fishing Championships.
The process has worked very well and I am delighted congratulate the following team members on their selection in the Fly Fish Australia 2018 World Fly Fishing Team.
Luke Barby
Josh Flowers
Tim Strong
Tom Jarman
Glenn Eggleton
No reserve has been selected at this stage.
Under our objective selection process FFA adopted a policy of only appointing a stand alone reserve to travel with international teams if neither the Team Captain and Team Manager have qualified for representation in a WFFC or CWFFC in the last 5 years and are willing to be fishing reserve or if that Team Captain or Team Manager is already a fishing member of the team.
This process brings FFA into line with the many international teams that have rationalised the role of reserve and now provide that the Team Captain or Team Manager also act as reserve for the team if required.
The call for applications of Captains and Managers of the 2018 WFFC is currently posted on the FFA web site.
