Match v LMRA and ULRC Sunday 6th May 2001

300 and 600 yards. Teams of 8

With Dominic Harvey and Peter Smith as coaches and backed up by John Bellringer and Jon Underwood, I introduced 4 new firers to the team, namely Alexandra Hakim, Susie Kent, Tom Spencer and John Tapster.
I was also pleased that we were joined, once again, by Sarah Kent and by Andy Gent who shot as the reserve (and scored 99.7).
The conditions were cold with a fresh wind, slightly variable from the east. On this occasion we were using Carmichael ammunition. At 300 yards, only 2 points were dropped and Andy Gent scored 49. At 600 yards it was more difficult and I noticed more lateral groups. 15 points were dropped at 600 yards.
Result: Highest Scorers

Surrey 783.90 Tom Spencer 100.15
John Tapster 100.13
LMRA 741.43 Lynne Johnson 97.6
ULRC not finished Matt Button 98.8

The result was very encouraging and I am pleased to welcome the 3 newcomers to the Surrey Association Squad for 2001

Surrey Knockout Competition 2001 - Sunday 1st April

The opening Club competition of the season which was shot at 600 yards on the first tolerably warm day of the year with some light cloud and little wind welcomed for the first time, a team from the Ibis RC who put in a creditable performance reaching the semi finals of the Main competition with 105.13, the second highest score of the day with Club 25 (A) achieving the highest score with 105 14. The competition, which develops into three separate mini competitions, was frantic but enjoyed by all with many competitors meeting for the first time this year. A few cobwebs where blown away, non-more so than those on Ian Shaw's foresight! The Consolation competition, the first of three keenly fought finals, was won by Old Epsomian (A) with a score of 105.12. The Shield final following soon after was contested by Old Epsomian (B) the eventual winners with 104.11 and Club 25(A) worthy runners up with 101.8. Shooting concurrently, the Main Knockout competition was an all Wandsworth affair with Wandsworth (D) 104.10 putting their (A) team, 103.13 to the sword. The full turnout of 16 teams boded well for the rest of the season with the Surrey League just around the corner.

After the Match it was a long trek back to the Clubhouse for the BBQ and pints of Hogs Back TEA, where the Secretary presented the trophies and thanked the RO for his assistance in running a well-organised and enjoyable shoot for all.

GD Hooton: Secretary.
