   BASC Sponsors Field Trial

   16 September 2011

   BASC sponsored a novice retriever trial in Leicestershire on 16 September. As well as underlining our commitment to support our gundog clubs this enables us to thank our hard-working volunteers by inviting them to shoot on the day. Regional director Steve Bloomfield picked the team from volunteers who give up their free time year after year to work at game fairs and other events that BASC would find hard to staff without their help. The team shot well for a strong field of dogs.
