Hi John
Yes its looking pretty good
We may end up with 30 teams of 3 = 90 shooters plus any reserves

In our club we try to nominate a couple of new club members as reserves for each discipline if possible. The reserves shoot a set of practise cards for each round and can step in and shoot the competition round cards if a team member has problems(holidays/illness etc)

The practise cards are marked by the club and enable the reserve to get into competitive shooting and establish an average for the discipline.
This is recorded/stored on our computer for future competitions or when his services are called upon to replace another team member
The reserve can shoot for more than one team if necessary (but not in the same round)
If his average exceeds the average of the team member he replaces (very rarely)then the appropriate adjustment is made by the competition co-ordinator to maintain fairness to other teams. So it is important to establish accurate averages for any reserves as soon as possible

Many thanks for the targets that you sent me, John. We will shoot some practice cards whilst waiting for the stickers to come through. The lads are really keen. I appreciate the hard work that has gone into organising this competition.

Entries are still coming in and we are now up to 31 teams so far
We should start with 6 divisions which will give shooters of all abilities the chance to compete
Quite a lot of shooters are using sporting rimfire rifles rather than target guns
I think that this is because they are using their only rimfire rifle which they already use in LSR. So it will be interesting to see how these light weight rifles perform
I must say that I am very pleased with the number of entries so far and it would be great if this discipline really takes off

John.
