There is a link to the proposal on a post on www.stirton.com forum, I have it on PDF but I can't download it to here, or find it on the NSRA website, its in a document presented to the shooting council.

Will this be in addition to the fees that the clubs have to pay every year ?

Let's hope not - its hard enough trying to get new members to take up the sport (or existing ones not to quit for a new interest) without making it more expensive.

Most small clubs (ours for sure) only change enough to pay the rent and the NSRA annual affiliation fee (to keep us insured) so any increase would be a bigger cost to the club members each year.

Unless the NSRA is hard up and desperate for an extra income this must be seen a huge mistake and will do nothing to promote or encourage the sport.

Is the NSRA struggling financially?
