The first official training day will begin on Wednesday, June 4th, with the 10th semi-final of the X. Freestyle Method Feeder National Championship on Lake Abért II in Lukácsháza. Both the preparation and the competition are open, and we look forward to welcoming all interested parties.

The championship consists of several semi-finals, two play-offs, four semi-finals and a final. The semi-finals and play-offs are held at seventeen venues. Each semi-final and play-off consists of three rounds, and the semi-final and final consist of four rounds. The rounds last five hours. The number of participants from the semi-finals to the semi-finals is determined in proportion to the number of participants in the semi-finals. 100% is equal to 106 competitors. The final list of participants in the semi-finals is determined based on the results of the last semi-final play-off.

The three-day Open Lake competition, which starts on Thursday, will be preceded by a mandatory training day on Wednesday, which all 40 competitors must participate in. Some competitors have already arrived at the venue and began getting to know the lake earlier this week.

In order to prepare the participants of the OB and to organize the semi-finals smoothly, our Association would like to draw the attention of anglers to the fact that the following prohibition will be in effect during the competition:
From 07:00 on June 3, 2025 (Tuesday) to 16:00 on June 7, 2025 (Saturday), there will be a general ban on anglers not registered for the competition in the entire area of Lake Abért II due to the semi-final of the 10th Freestyle Method Feeder National Championship.
