Great start to the first beginner's course of the year. Great effort by all the participants and a big thank you to coaches and helpers.

The next course will start towards the end of may and details will be sent out via the mailing list this week. We are having email issues at the moment, so do message us on here if you need to get hold of us.

Sunday morning is the first of this year's Frostbite shoots. Perfect for newer members to get to meet other club members. It's a 9:30 start, and only a short 3 dozen round at 30m.

Last session of the beginner's course this afternoon. Well done to all the attendees for putting in max effort over the last 3 weeks. Thank you to all the club members who helped out all season, we couldn't do it without you.
