Hi everybody, Krishna here, Club Secretary, delivering you the below January club updates!
Fridge etiquette: Reminder
We are fortunate to have a fridge we can use in our club but we must all be respectful of each other and remove food which is out of date so that we do not cause anybody to fall ill because of germs.
Please let’s all work together and follow the guidance to keep our club clean and safe, a reminder below of correct fridge use, this notice is displayed on the front of our fridge.
League updates or reminders
The results of the indoor league matches shot in November have been published. Harrow’s Recurve team starts at the top of the Middlesex Worcester League leaderboard with a win against Laleham. The Longbow team starts in 2nd despite a loss to Aquarius. Barebow are 3rd with a win against Aquarius. Naheed Ali from BoH was 1st in Middlesex for Barebow Ladies.
The Portsmouth League results are more complicated. This is a national league so there are multiple divisions for each bow disciplie. Recurve A team were 3rd in Div 1, Recurve B were 4th in Div 6, Longbow 3rd in Div 2, Barebow 1st in Div 2.
Details of next month’s league shoots will be posted on the session bookings page.
Everyone is welcome to take part. The highest scores from each week will count towards a team score. Individual awards are also available. One person in each session will need to volunteer to be range captain and to collect scoresheets at the end of the round.
