Club Championships

Our Club Championships this year will be held on Sunday 15th October 2017.

The event is open to all members of Fleet Ibex.

Medals will be awarded for all the usual NFAS bow classes with an overall winner decided on a handicap basis.

Hopefully we’ll have 20 3-D targets out with the competition being over two rounds – i.e. 40 targets all together.

The shoot will be free of charge and although catering will not be available, there will be facilities for making tea and coffee.

Registration will be held from 08:30hrs with the briefing held so that shooting can start at 10:00hrs prompt.

Entries will be accepted on the day (provided you are a full paid up member) but I would prefer that you let me know if you intend to shoot.

If you wish to shoot in a group, please let me know beforehand so arrangements can be made and targets allocated.

Members who register on the day may have little choice about which group they’ll be in.

The maximum group size will be 4 archers so please don’t ask for more to be included. Larger groups slow the whole event down.

Open Shoot on 13/8/17

Please note that the next open shoot will be held at the club on Sunday 13th August 2017.

As a result, the club practice courses (the Black and Blue courses) will be closed to all on 12th and 13th August.

For those intending to compete in the open shoot, please note that you need to be a full NFAS member - membership cards will be checked on registration.

There are currently places available but please ensure you enter using the shoot entry form soon. Helen will be closing registration at midday on Thursday 10th August to give her time to sort out the entries.

Events at the Club

We've pencilled in a date for our 2017 Club Championships - Sunday 15th October 2017. We'll post more details closer to the time but in the meantime, if you are interested, make a note in your diaries. As last year, it will be open only to club members, will be free of charge to enter, and although tea and coffee facilities will be available, no other catering will be arranged.

Also in October (6th to 8th October 2017) we are playing host to 3dUK for one of their shoots. They will be setting up their course on the left hand side of the access road and so the Black Course will be closed that weekend. The Blue Course will remain open for members to use if they wish.

Our next open shoot will be held on Sunday 13th August 2017. Please note that both practice courses (Black and Blue) will be closed for that weekend.

 

21st May 2017 - Clive Freemantle Memorial Shoot

Another very successful open shoot - this time blessed with fantastic weather.

Challenging courses were matched with some excellent (and close) scores. The overall winner of the Clive Freemantle trophy (open only to compound unlimited archers) was, for the second year in a row, Owen Blackmore. Well done Owen.

Full results for the shoot will be published on the "Shoot Results and Reports" page of this web sire when available. In the meantime, enjoy (!!) the selection of photos uploaded to the "Photo Galleries" page.

Many thanks to all those who helped - the course layers, the caterers and, of course, Helen for the administration and scoring.

Open Shoot 21st May 2017

Just a warning to those intending to travel to the Fleet Ibex Open Shoot on 21st May 2017.

The M3 will be closed from Junction 2 (M25) to 3 (Lightwater) for the whole weekend for re-surfacing work. If this affects you, you are advised to allow extra time for the journey or find an alternative route.

16th April 2017 - Fleet Ibex Open Shoot

Many thanks to all who contributed to another fantastic day of shooting on 16/1/17. This included the fiendish course setters (who never make life easy!), Helen (for the administration and scoring) and the new catering team (who did a great job).

A report and full scores will be published as soon as they are available.

In the meantime - a gallery of photographs has been added. If anyone has any more they would like to publish, please sent them to me either through the contacts section on this web site or the email address on the membership form.
