Easter & Christmas Melees

The club holds 2 annual special melees for Club Members at Easter and Christmas.

Easter Egg Melee

Inaugurated in 2019 and held on Easter Sunday, the Easter Egg Melee is probably the only Easter Egg Melee in the world at which everyone gets a prize – a Creme Egg with multiple eggs for the winner.

In 2026, Sharon Paynter became the first member to have held the Easter Egg & Christmas trophies (not simultaneously).
