Welcome

Welcome to Tawd Vale Field Target and Air Rifle Club.

The Club is situated in woodland which forms part of the Scout Association camping grounds just outside Newburgh. The facilities we enjoy are superb by any standards and are ideal for our sport.

We ask all members and guests to help continue the excellent relationship we have with the Tawd Vale management, by friendly co-operation with the staff, by our standards of behaviour and by maintaining the clubs excellent safety record.

Whilst nearly everyone who visits the club comes to enjoy the shooting, there are always other tasks to perform, such as marshalling, laying out the targets, bringing in the targets, painting the targets, clean targets for the plinking range, grounds maintenance etc. These tasks are done by the quiet majority of members – as a new member just join in where you can, your help will be much appreciated.

Whilst it is not compulsory, members can take part in the regional league competitions organised by the North West Field Target Association, where you will be shooting against people of a similar standard to yourself.

We have also a good HFT competition series which runs winter and summer.

Don’t be shy – come along to these competitions and have a go. They are friendly and sociable events and are enormously enjoyable.

There is a thriving junior section, and there are some very good shots amongst them. Please take time out now and again to instruct or simply partner a junior member on the course. They really enjoy shooting against the adults and learn quickly by doing so, you never know, you might learn something too.

Read the info available on this site especially the club rules and more especially the safety rules.

Remember at all times, the club exists so that we can all enjoy our sport in a warm, friendly and very safe atmosphere.

Thank you.

Your Committee
