 This class of membership is open to those aged between 7 and their 16th birthday. Juniors can only join with an Ordinary or Senior Citizen member and it is a strict Club rule  that juniors must be closely accompanied by the senior member responsible for them when on Club waters. Juniors and adults must therefore fish at the same or closely adjacent swim.

 B.D.A.C. does not issue day or guest tickets on its waters.   

LICENCES Every member of 12 years and over must carry an Environment Agency licence if they wish to fish.   The EA licence  allows the use of two  rods, although although some club waters only allow one rod. No member may use more than two rods on any club water. 
CLUB KEY Most of our waters require a gate key, which should be hired by all adult members on joining. This will open all gates between 1st May and 31st March only.
CLOSE SEASON Club waters are not accessible during our Close Season, which is 15th March to 15th June inclusive on rivers and the month of April on stillwaters. We do undertake working parties on our stillwaters during March and April. Adult members will be supervised during work in the morning, then be allowed a few hours fishing in the afternoon, at the discretion of that water's Fishery Officer.
