The Club Coaches
will be holding fishing lessons again this year, with dates likely to
be at the end of July when the schools break up. This will coincide
with National Fishing week and will be supported by the EAW. The
coaching in wales has been taken over by a new body and we are waiting
for our permits to be finalised before setting final dates.

MELIN REGENERATION SCHEME
This scheme is being undertaken as part of
the communities first project. The scheme is split into two main parts;
the Eaglesbush valley reclamation which aims to provide walks, outdoor
classes, and environmental improvements in the area, and the Galv. site
project, where our clubs interests lie.
The galv site project takes in the area around the pond as well as the
canal bank, and the aim is to
1 Provide three main walks where people can jog,
stroll, and enjoy the environment.
2 Resurface the galv. pitch for mini football.
3 Provide bird watching hides along the riverbank.
4 Improve access to the pond for walkers and anglers.
5 Clear the area of Japanese knotweed.
The first part of this long term project is to remove the Japanese
knotweed infestation in the area being looked at. to this end the club,
along with members of the Melin community first team, has been in
action spraying the areas affected with weed killer. This is an action
plan which will take a number of years to have any effect but must be
done in a systematic way if it is to have a long lasting effect.
The end result should see a great improvement in the area, with walks
along the canal and river with seats and stopping points for all to
enjoy.
