NOTICE BOARD
Tony Langford
1941 – 2021
West Atholl Rifle Club sadly announce the death of fellow member Tony Langford. Tony was a Police Officer with Strathclyde Police and started shooting with the Scottish Police Rifle Association and would later become the Chairman of the association he was so actively involved with, even in failing health. Tony was also the long term Treasurer of the Strathclyde Police Rifle Pistol Club and latterly Police Scotland Rifle Pistol Club. He was a board member of the Scottish Police Recreation Association and twice attended the World Emergency Service Games in the USA and Ireland. He also helped run the multi-discipline shoot at Blair Atholl and, of-course, ran the Police Open shoot for some 40 years. He will be missed by many.

Tim Kidner wins Bob Aitken award
West Atholl Rifle Club would like to congratulate fellow member Tim Kidner GM on winning this years Bob Aitken award for services to shooting.
The award is given for Tim’s long service and dedication to the skill of Full Bore Shooting. For living memory Tim chaired the Scottish Rifle Association alternately with Bob and organised Scottish shooting events at home in Scotland and at Bisley and International Team matches in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Canada. Tim has given a significant element of his life and his time to the promotion of Full Bore Shooting both in the UK and internationally and there is no one more deserving of the award.

Season Restarting
Our season will restart with an informal shoot at short range this coming weekend on the 2 May. We may have enough interest to run a short range shoot on Saturday 1 May. Members intending to shoot on the Saturday should email me directly.
Another informal shoot is planned for Sunday 9 May.
This first club shoot counting towards club trophies will be at short range on 16 May.
These shoots will be run on the same basis as last year where shooters will form groups of six and string shoot one to a monitor/target.
We should be able to resume two shooters per monitor/target after the 17 May and resume our published fixture list:
