Club Update
RANGE UPGRADES
The Range Upgrades are progressing well. B Range has been widened to accommodate a full 6 Firing Points at 100 Yards. The Sleeper Wall for the 20y/25m Range has been started and as of 4 March all supporing posts are in situ and the sleepers are being attached. Work can then begin on the 50m point, and when both are ready the sand can be delivered and the retaining walls completed.
Check out the Club Facebook Page for photos of the work and updates on progress.
Recruitment of new members continues, and we have already had 2 intakes of new people, one group started in January and one in February. We are looking to repeat this and take on around 10 new members each month.
From 1 January 2025 the Range has been open every day, with a few exceptions to allow work to take place on te Range upgrades.
Members have started taking full advantage of the new opening hours and every day has been used so far.
For February we are open 0900 to 1500, and this will extend to 1600 in March to take advantage of the lighter early evenings.
Opening times will be noted on the Calendar of Events, available on this Website.
The Club’s purpose is to encourage and facilitate the development of and participation in the sport of target shooting.
We are looking to receive applications from potential new members, especially anyone new to the Sport of Target Shooting. We have Club Guns available for you to use, and full training and supervision will be given during your Probation period to ensure you are safe and competent and can then develop your skills in a wide variety of different shooting disciplines available at our Club.
