The Rules
We are currently in season 08/09. Thus all bags done at the moment count towards this year's awards. The rules of Lake Bagging are as follows:
- You must be fully submerged in the lake to get one point
- You get double points for breaking ice or getting FULLY naked (thus x4 points if you do both)
- You can only bag bodies of natural water named on a 1:25,000 map, not the sea or rivers or swimming pools
- Only one bag per lake per season
- The Lake Bagging season runs from 1st October until the Saturday night of the Lakes AGM in May the following year
- Bonus points can be awarded for occasional heroics (committee decision final)
Still to be confirmed, awards will be given out for:
- Highest points total
- Highest altitude lake bag
Please send in all funny lake bagging photos to help encourage others to join the fastest growing UK sport.
2008 - 2009 Results
What drama the 08-09 season held! This is how the table looked before the AGM: Eleri and Gareth in the lead. Then, on the day of the AGM Eleri bagged more lakes and took the lead, it looked as if she'd done it. But as if from nowhere, Clay the hardiest and nakedest of UBESters proved he had what it took to be lakebagging champion by bagging no less than 7 lakes in one day, all naked, taking his total score to 14 points and ensuring that he will go down in history as the UBES 2008-2009 lakebagging champion.

Quick Guide
- Step one: Choose your lake carefully; stay away from young children, policemen, and the infirm.
- Step two: Choose your lake bagging companion carefully; avoid men with binoculars, zoom lens or anoraks.
- Step three: Take your clothes off; how is up to you – find a nice rock to get changed behind or just fling them off whilst running down the hillside.
- Step four: Remain calm and collected and go for a leisurely swim, whilst keeping the screeching at a minimum. Extra points for distance.
- Step five: Exit the lake before hypothermia sets in.
