SPRA 2015 Match Dates and training days

[Kodiak99317]

The SPRA is a competitive shooting club, where TR, FTR and FOpen shooters all shot and have a great time. At our matches, we have target pullers in the butts so you can stay with the other shooters, watch winds, others firing until it is your turn on the line. We have 7 target frames, and are bermed out to 1200 yds. Located 6 miles east of Nokomis SK. Check out our FaceBook page named Saskatchewan Provincal Rifle Association – SPRA for more info, pics and videos of our facilities or visit our web page at www.saskrifle.com. Cost of matches are $35 per day.

hey Kieth do you know if they are going to have the shooters cards to pay for all matches at once that was talked about

 

[Kodiak99317]

No shoot card offered since it was thought few would actually buy it.

We will offer a $10 per weekend discount for pre-registration and the forms are up on our website at http://www.saskrifle.com/weekend-schedule/

You can also join via the web site by downloading the membership form, filling it out and sending it with the filled out form to the Treasurer.

If everyone pre-registers, we can ensure we have the correct number of medals for the three types of rifles used (TR, FTR and FO) and for the classification system (Master, Expert, Sharpshooter and Greenshot) within each of the rifle types, based on the 3-6-9 rule.

Otherwise, we need 3typesX4classesX3(1st,2nd,3rd)=36 medals per aggregate so for a 3 day match we are looking at 108 medals!! Even without putting dates or names on these medals and only handing out what we need and saving un-used for the next match, it gets pretty expense.

Help us out guys and pre-register well in advance of the match you are plan on attending and save yourself some money as well. http://www.saskrifle.com/weekend-schedule/

The only other way is to score you into your classifications but only award medals to the top 3 shooters in the rifle types, regardless of classifications, then we are down to 9 medals per aggregate and it gets affordable again.
