posted 17 Nov 2011 17:02 by Central Shooters Inc Secretary   [ updated 19 Nov 2011 23:00 ]

Final results for the 2011 Scout Shooting Competition is attached below.
 
26 Groups took part some 435 competitors - over 6 days of shooting and
11,000 rds of ammo expended - I believe the biggest competition yet!
There were some excellent scores including a maximum 100 from Pukekohe.

Well done to everybody.

We must all thank Wayne and the team at Central Shooters Inc (CSI) for
providing all the gear - ammo targets and making the time to run the range.

Thank you to Andrew Stevens for arranging pennants and badges, and many
thanks to Donna Robson for all the admin support.

The area highlighted in orange is for last years results.

So, if all the place getters 1st 2nd and 3rd could send me a mailing
address I will arrange for the placing pennants to be sent over.
 
Kind regards

Auckland Region Scout Shooting Competition 2010

posted 22 Aug 2010 19:26 by Central Shooters Inc Secretary   [ updated 22 Aug 2010 19:38 ]

After quite a few weekends spent at the range with a total of 300 competitors representing 20 Groups and crews, in a very close fought
shooting competition the results are now available.

This years competition has proved to be the most popular yet- so popular in fact that Mayor John Banks and Leader of Act, Rodney Hide MP popped in to say hello. Both John and Rodney are former scouts and very happy to see that scouting is still doing well. They were very pleased to support the concept of the shooting competition and Adventure Plus!

The Overall winners are Taiaotea Air and Te Atatu Endeavour Sea who tied for aggregate honours: "click on the link below for full details"
 
Royal Oak, New Lynn, Taiaotea and Papakura Sea are the section winners.
Additionally;
Top Individual Score
Junior                  92 - Royal Oak
Intermediate      94 - Tauhinu
Senior                  96 - Taiaotea
Open                    98 - Bucklands Beach & Taiaotea

Also a quick mention of Pitcairn Island - they have only 2 junior scouts so entered an open team of 2 junior scouts and 2 leaders- and managed to take 3rd place in the open.

The competition could not have gone ahead without the support of Central Shooters Inc and the members who volunteered to run the range for the scouts.
Central Shooters supply the location, rifles, ammo and targets as well as the expertise of their members. They are very happy to have scout groups along to shoot at the range - just check out the calendar on their website.
All the badges and pennants issued were supplied by Auckland Seascouts - many thanks to the Seascouts for the continued sponsorship of this event.
We are hoping to run next years event at around the same time of year - so pencil this in to your diaries - we will aim (no pun intended) to provide as much notice as possible.
