In The News(To keep up with the latest from our up and coming champions follow this link Junior News) -------------------- Tri Clout Tournament Following previous reports that the Tri Clout event may be affected by the car parking issue I can confirm it will take place as advertised. See the entry form on our events page for August 28 - 30th. -------------------- **** Further Car Park Update / All Members Please Read **** Please see the following updated message from Malcolm concerning the 'new' carpark
Until we can discuss the situation with the sec of Wirral Rugby it is
essential that we do not upset the committee. Parking in the access area
adjacent to the gate, on the road seems to upset local residents and rugby are
sensitive to this. Also climbing over the gates and fences seems to create
some issues.
We hope to resolve this with a meeting shortly and establish why the
pedestrian gate has also been locked.
However having walked to the normal shooting area from the 2 gates the access
from the main club car park is only 12 paces further than from the field gate.
As both gates field and pedestrian gates are locked at the moment it is
probable easier for all to gain access to the archery area from the main car
park and walk round the pathway.
As disabled may struggle to get all their equipment round by this route we
would as if assistance be afforded to them from able bodied members.
Not sure if it would assist if we had each others mobile numbers so we can
contact each other to request assistance.
The car park is now seeded and the hope is that the area can be available for
parking in a couple of months
------------------ **** Car Park Update / All Members Please Read **** Please see the following message from Malcolm concerning the 'new' carpark
Over the next few weeks / month the Rugby club are to undertake surface
preparation works on the stoned car park area
This will mean during this period the car park will be out of use for all ,
for parking or access to the fields.
The area is to be soiled and then seeded and once the grass has grown the
surface will be covered with a matting to allow vehicles to park without
damage to the surface.
This is to comply with conditions relating to the Planning Application and
should have been completed some time ago, and will present a green surface
finish to the area.
With this in mind we are looking at relocating archery to the top field using
the original container equipment so disabled can park in the gate access
splays and be close to the shooting area. Both areas for shooting will still
be used with the main area affected being access for the disabled
Also until the matter is resolved we propose to postpone the
Club Championships planned for the 3 July until access in resolved.
Any queries I should be down on Sunday to discuss. please note parking on the
stoned car park OK for this Sunday as work to start on Monday, and also Bikers
Rally on the front car park area.
The Tri Clout event is also affected and we are looking at alternatives.
-------------------- Summers Here so Clouts Appear What can I say, the Cheshire clout shoots at Neston continue to be a big hit. The FITA Clout took place last Monday 3rd May on what was a dry but windy day and its popularity seems to keep increasing. This year there was a fantastic 116 archers taking part from all over the country. Well done to all archers that took place in particular Helen Porter, Viv Guthrie and Victoria Mara all becoming the Cheshire Champions in their divisions. Full results can be seen here..FITA Clout results Photos of the days shoot can be found here http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/Photogrog/CAAFITACloutNeston03052010?feat=directlink Don't forget the Tri Clout Tournament on the August bank holiday (see events page). -------------------- Neston Compound Shows Strength in Depth For the second year in a row the Neston Compound team went through the winter season undefeated in the Cheshire Winter League. Thanks to a sensible rule change this year they were rightly crowned Division 1 Champions. Well done to all those whose scores went towards this result, again showing that Neston Company of Archers has great strength in depth with their compound archers. -------------------- Cheshire County Team Congratulations to the following archers who all qualified to represent Cheshire at this weekends county trials - Carol Morris-Lewis, Malcolm Lewis, Mark Bathgate, Graeme Steele and Richie Mellor.
