Club Champs and Prize Giving

What an amazing turnout for the Club Target Champs and PrizeGiving on Sunday 27 Nov.

We had an incredible 47 archers take part in the Target Champs and 73 members across the 4 Championship events throughout the year.

The weather did not hinder the wonderful atmosphere and I hope you all had a great time.

A special thanks to everyone who helped to get the day running smoothly – Paul as DoS, Vinny on the BBQ, Tom as always for his amazing work keeping our club equipment in order, and everyone who helps with setup and admin and reminding me to breathe and enjoy the day.

Thank you to David for the amazing photographs as always (posted to Facebook)!!

Range Update

Hopefully you have all received Kelly’s update regarding the lease for our outdoor range and the updated hours (sent 30 November 2022).

We will be unable to use the outdoor range at any time on Mondays and Tuesdays. The clubroom building is still accessible 24/7/365. (We may use the range on public holidays on Mondays/Tuesdays, 9am-5pm)
Our use hours are largely unchanged, though summer Thursdays will extend to 7pm. This means that we can enjoy evening shoots on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays during summer.
