Andrew Darling Nov 6, 2012:
How about... ...a large number of members/participants?
EirTranslations (asker) Nov 6, 2012:
I understand both, but its more aimed at members who can fill in the form and sign up, thank you all
Simon Bruni Nov 6, 2012:
I see your point But turnout can have the 'taking part' sense (see the Oxford English) and the rest of the context makes it clear this is what is meant. Plus, fishing is rarely (if ever?) a spectators' sport.
Lisa McCarthy Nov 6, 2012:
@ Simon Just wanted to clarify that, as I interpret 'turnout' as not having exactly the same meaning as physically participating in a competition. e.g. turnout could mean people who turned up to witness the event but not actually take part.

Simon Bruni Nov 6, 2012:
@Lisa They want people to take part: they are asking them to fill out a "formulario de inscripción" (entry form).
Lisa McCarthy Nov 6, 2012:
@ Beatriz Are they looking for people to actually take part in the Championship itself or just to attend, as observers?
