For further information on how to join our club contact secretary

We have 3 types of membership - Full, Family, Junior

Full - any individual over 18 years

Family - up to four members of one family who are individually accepted for membership

Junior - any person between the ages 14-18 years

We do not have a waiting list and anybody who is interested in shooting is welcome to join the club as a probationary member. However, we need to get to know you first and find out a bit about you.

We need you to be proposed by a full club member. If you know such a member already then there is no problem. If you do not then one of our committee members will propose you once we have satisfied ourselves about you.

You will be required to sign a declaration stating that you are not prohibited from being in possession of firearms or ammunition.

We will need 2 x passport sized photographs for each prospective member.

You will normally be a probationary member for at least 6 months. We are required to make an assessment of your level of committment and general character during this period and to base the decision regarding full membership upon this assessment.

Once you are a full member you can normally apply for your own Firearms Certificate if you wish.
