Congratulations to the Finedon team on securing the first win of the season at the Ath Club on Friday.
Finedon’s man of the match was Gary Martin, who went on last and scored a very punchy 46.
Earls Barton requested that their first home match be postponed, so a practice night took place instead.
This gave us a chance to get the new upstairs shooting room laid out a little better, then test out the newly
installed targets…
Quick Links to Fixtures by Month:
With the new shooting season very nearly upon us, it’s been a busy couple of weeks getting the full set of
fixtures mapped out, as well as giving the website it’s annual clean-up & rejig.
A big welcome to Julie Parkes as our newly appointed League Secretary - she’s already proved herself
incredibly useful, offering first-class help with the painstaking work of proof-reading the fixtures lists I’ve
drawn up alongside the new website content.
The ‘Fixtures’ section now includes a month-by-month breakdown of all planned matches.
Printable versions of the fixtures for the entire season are also available in the ‘Downloads’ area.
Finally, the minutes of the recent RADARL AGM (Annual General Meeting) will be posted in our WhatsApp
Group later this evening, capturing all details that were agreed for the 2023/24 shooting season.
The first matches of the season will take place on Friday 29th September from ~8pm - details as follows:
…and the new guest beer!
In the short term, we’ll need to adapt somewhat to the upstairs shooting room.
In particular, please do:
•
take special care on the staircase - it is quite steep
•
take things especially steady if you’re carrying rifles, equipment, drinks, etc
•
be mindful that head clearance is quite tight above the staircase for taller (6ft+) shooters
•
log any difficulties caused by the new room with Jon via the WhatsApp group
Some great shooting this weekend - with Andy Corney enjoying a great run of fives and Nicola Souter
securing a perfect round.
Both teams were slightly short-handed this week - so names were drawn from a hat… with Andy and Nicola
both being drawn to shoot again (as if they needed the practice!).
Another weekend and another fine showing.
Notable performances from Nicola Souter and Andy Corney, who continued their fine run of form from last
week, with Richard Stead and Ian Catling each scoring big with 47 point sessions in front of their targets.

This website has been brought bang up to date. The latest changes include:
•
results from the postponed match between Ath ‘C’ and Earls Barton which took place last weekend
•
the return of the charts and graphs on the ‘League Table’ page
•
some tweaks to how postponed / rearranged matches appear on the fixtures page
