Hello East Midlands Shooter

MAY NEWSLETTER

I’m happy to report its been once again a bumper month for attendances at our Championship Shoots, so far this season we are showing an increase of more than 170 attendees compared to like for like shoots last year. The attendances have certainly added a keen edge to the competition but it’s still not stopped some familiar faces making their way to the top of the pile, notably Lincs Junior Jack Wilkinson has already won three titles and fellow County shooter John Winn has also managed to win one Senior and two Vets titles after only four Championships.

MAY FIXTURES

This month we have something to suit just about everyone’s taste with three Championship shoots to whet the appetite, sadly because of the constraints of the annual fixtures calendar they all come over the same weekend but we hope this does not detract from your enjoyment and we hope you can make it along to at least one shoot this month.

We kick things off in May with the OLYMPIC SKEET this year back to its old haunt of Tythe Farm in Bedfordshire on SATURDAY MAY 7^th, telephone bookings are preferred and you can contact Michael on 01582-873281 or if you prefer by Email at michael0452@tiscali.co.uk .

Tythe Farm Sat Nav Directions – MK44 2JZ

The next day SUNDAY MAY 8^th we have two Championships, the first is the OLYMPIC TRAP which this year will be held at a new location for us namely the Beverley Clay Target Centre in Yorkshire. Telephone entries for this Championship are now being taken, to secure your place contact Alison Dupree on 01964-551134 or if you prefer by Email at alison.dupree@sbblaw.com .

Beverley Clay Target Centre Sat Nav Directions – HU17 7RB

The same day SUNDAY MAY 8^th we have the ENGLISH SPORTING at Grange Farm which is just a five minute journey off the M1. No need to book on for this one as entries are on the day from 9-30am until 1pm and on top of the trophies and medals there’s a more than respectable £150 High Gun on offer. Breakfast’s are served all day and are one of the best in the region, but make sure you save some space for a piece of Diane’s cake at the end; it’s worth the entry fee alone.
