CPSA Advice as of 14th May
The following email was sent to all CPSA clubs, grounds, and trade members on 14 May 2020, stating that the CPSA has now had the necessary assurances to recommend the re-opening of clay-shooting grounds, which will be of interest to all clay-shooters in England:
Dear Clubs, Grounds, and Trade Members,
Regarding the CPSA’s position on the opening of clay shooting grounds following the easing of restrictions from the 13th May for outdoor sports activities:
Over the past 48 hours we have been working with the Government, Police and other bodies to get the confirmation we needed under the latest Government guidance that it is possible to start shooting recreationally again within England.
Therefore, as the National Governing Body for the Sport of Clay Target Shooting in England, we are now satisfied that we can start a phased return to clay shooting with initially pay & play/practice and a return to competitive registered shoots in time.
Shooting grounds can re-open when they are ready and our members are now able to participate and enjoy the sport of clay target shooting recreationally while all following strict CV19 safety protocols and guidance.
Importantly, we have now also had confirmation from our insurers that our members are fully insured after considering the new guidance to get out and enjoy their sport again.
We have already issued comprehensive guidance to grounds to assist with their planning to implement the strict social distancing and safety measures to protect their staff, the shooters and our sport.
In preparation for shooting please make yourself aware of the CPSA guideline
Please read the CPSA Shoot Guidance, we will be implementing relevant sections. Wash your hands, and adhere to Social Distancing during the shoot.

Practice Shoot Ludgershall 20th September
A very good turnout for our Sunday shoot. It was a warm dry September morning shoot with seven operational stands, and one waiting stand to cope with the large turnout. One very tricky stand with a following pair of clays from a tower caused problems with many shooters. Many blanking this stand.

Practice Shoot at Doddershall 30th August
An extra shoot was organised for the 5th Sunday of the month. This was a welcome shoot to offset the shoots we missed earlier in the season. There were some difficult targets in today’s shoot. The two slow incoming clays looked deceptively easy, how come so many missed the right-hand clay. Who set up stand 5 with the two left to right crossing targets. The first of the pair was hittable as it came to a stop in front of you. The second target, landing not far away was apparently impossible. I never saw one broken. Collecting the clays at the end of the day reinforced this observation. The high score of 37 was confirmation of the difficult targets. We only get better by testing ourselves.

Practice Shoot Ludgershall 16th August
Our first summer shoot at Ludgershall was held in warm muggy conditions. Many shooters regretting bringing their wet weather gear. The new normal 6 stands were set up, with a couple of rather demanding stands. Don’t let Brian attend FITASC shoots before setting up our shoot. The weather stayed dry, there were a couple of shooters in the forties.
Our next shoot is the BBQ shoot, held at Ludgershall, details out later. If you are coming, then make sure you have booked. Brian has a treat in store for us all.

Practice Shoot at Doddershall 2nd August
A pleasant day shooting, with a good mixture of targets. The day was dry, and a wind that varied. On the whole quite testing, well Graham didn’t make 40, so must have been hard.
