South East - Youngshots

Young shot shootingThe full day of varied activities will usually commence at 9.45am, finishing at 4.30pm. These events are structured for those of you between the ages of 8 and 17 inclusive who have just started shooting, or who are about to take up the sport, and are aimed at teaching safe and responsible shooting and demonstrating its place in the countryside. Places are limited so early booking is advised. If you would like to bring a friend, we would be delighted provided they are booked in and we have their details, they do not need to be BASC members.

You can expect to learn about such things as safe gun handling and the law relating to shotguns and air rifles. You will be given practical tuition in using shotguns and the opportunity to hit some clay pigeons, similarly you will be able to use under tuition state of the art air rifles firing at knockover field targets.

The cost of activity days is £15 per person, which includes all tuition, clays, cartridges, use of guns, etc. You may bring your own gun with you if you wish, but please do not bring cartridges.
