We're excited to announce a brand-new competition on the TPSFC calendar the very first Snapper Shootout!

This year we're proud to be teaming up with our mates across the water, with the tournament being hosted at the Pauanui Club. We're looking forward to a fantastic day of fishing, plenty of friendly rivalry, and bringing both clubs together for what we hope will become a staple event on our fishing calendar.

As this is the very first Snapper Shootout, we'd like to extend a huge thank you to the businesses who have got behind the event and helped make it possible:

Window Treatments NZ Ltd
CBC Group
Real Interior Coro Peninsula
Pivotal Gas & Plumbing Limited
