Summer session ends with records

The Club’s records officers have reported 4 records.

At NAC’s end of summer session shoot the following records were set.

Kirsty Stephenson – Longbow – Short National
ladies club record of 103 – the previous county record 67 is also beaten. Well done Kirsty

Tina King – Barebow – Short National
Tina scored 160 at this shoot which does not beat her own club record of 207 however as the previous record was not eligible for county record status (we forgot to register the shoot!!!) this lower score can be submitted as setting a brand new county record. With Tina history of higher scores this record is unlikely to stand for too long

Jamie Hamill-Watts – Junior national – Jnr Gents
New Club Record of 464

Congratulations to all three.

John Ashby Sports Hall

Saturday 8th October 2011 saw NAC begin shooting at a brand new venue. John Ashby Sports Hall at Moulton College is the biggest indoor venue the club has ever shot at. Its longer (we can comnfortably shoot a 25 yrd Bray round) and wider (we can fit up to 8 butts and 16 targets) with plenty of space for up to 50 archers and all their equipment. The first session began a few minutes late at 11am. Dave Stephens, pictured here, had the pleasure of shooting the first arrow. Around 30 members enjoyed shooting 20 yards indoors for the first time. All things being well we’ll look at a members indoor competition in December and perhaps an indoor open in 2012 if we can find a slot in the county calendar. Hopefully they’ll be an album of memories from this day posted very soon.
