The Salisbury WA70 takes place in a couple of weeks and we are missing the last white horse trophy.

His name is Champion and he represents the Compound Men category. This was last won by Steve Newton in 2015, handed back to the TO at that time in 2016 and since then seems to have left the corral.

Could you all take a look in your garage, attic and back pockets, to see if we can lasso the last horse!

If Champion is found, please contact John Prior on 07887 923389

Thanks

It is with deepest regret that I must advise you of the death of Ray Gallop after a short spell in hospital, Ray passed away peacefully at home on Monday 27th February.

Ray’s contribution to archery is immense, as an active member of DWAA, President of GNAS, a National and International (FITA) Judge, his expertise in both target, field archery and Paralympic disciplines he was recognised as the “go to” for advice, and in depth analysis on the rules of shooting.

The committee thought it would be worth highlighting the national Defib finder website. When you are out and about at a competition, it is always worth knowing where the nearest one can be found.

Defib finder – find the defibrillators nearest you.
