    NSRA/Eley nationals

    anyone got any details on when the finals are being held - at Bisley presumably? Can't find anything on the NSRA website which probably means I'm being remarkably dim..

    Adam said Oct 9th.

    But not on Eley site, it says August for Nationals so I'm confused.

    The Prone .22 finals are on the first Sunday of the Bisley Smallbore Week in August (the Roberts Final is on the Second Saturday, and everyone's gone home by the second Sunday!)

    The Air finals are separate - probably October like someone said.

    Couldn't say when the .22 3-Position finals are, but I don't think anyone was asking about them anyway.

    Poorly publicised on the web. I think the idea is that your club secretary gives you the details when they are busy telling you that you're through (or you get it on the letter if you've entered individually). Our club has the Stage 2 results book pinned to the wall with the names of the people who shot in the second stage, who made the cut to the final, and the date/place of the relevant finals.
    Shame the NSRA don't put it up now they've got a functional website though.

    Clubs should all have received details of the finals and of those who have qualified. It is expected that the secretary/match secretary/club captain will pass the information to the relevant members.

    Oh I know, and yes you are correct. What Im saying is the presence of this competition from a PR / Marketing / Knowledge / Get the name out there point of few is less than crap.

    In fairness they advertise the competition quite well when entries are open. Mailshots, announcements on the website, and of course word of mouth like people posting reminders up on forums such as this.

    They just assume that once you've entered, the club's match secretary disseminates the relevant information like they're supposed to.
