Dear
All,
Please note that whilst the wearing of your
club I.D. is expected when on club property,
it is however NOT compulsory to wear it when
shooting as it can be a hazard when tangled
with your rifle and therefore dangerous.
So please, when not wearing your I.D., keep
it in a pocket or close to hand should you be
asked for it.
Thank you.
Paul Macey. Chairman, BFTO

March 20th,
2010 saw a new event, BFTO/BRSC Junior Day.
Idea being that the juniors
from each club would take on the others at their
disciplines.
Not brilliant weather as per normal of late,
and turnout wasn’t as good as expected.
22 juniors in total ranging from 8-16.
BFTO was represented by :-
Max Caswell,
Noah Harwood,
Ben Hammond,
Ollie Hammond
Leon Hargreaves
Daniel Attfield
James Attfield
The day consisted of 4 disciplines :-
25mtr Ring Target
.22 50mtr Stalkers Test
Hunter Field Target
10mtr Running Target
There was also a great fun range set up on the
pistol/vintage range
Considering the low turnout from BFTO, the results
were and impressive pleasing to say the least.
James Attfield was 2nd on the ring target with
Leon Hargreaves picking up 3rd place.
Noah Harwood also picked up 3rd place in the
ring target in a different set.
James Attfield came 3rd in the Stalking target.
Leon Hargreaves came 1st on the running target
Daniel Attfield came 2nd on HFT
Leon Hargreaves came 3rd on HFT
James Attfield also came 3rd in a different
set on HFT using his vintage rifle.
Also these guys managed to pick up cash prizes
as well as their trophies which was a great
surprise to them.
They all represented the our club well and certainly
didn’t let us down. They were all very
helpful and supportive to the younger members
of the other club and helped them through their
day.
We all agreed it was a great day with a lot
of fun had by all. There is already talk of
repeating this day possibly in the summer, and
if this day was anything to go by, it’ll
be a great success.
