Club Membership Fee - What's yours ?

[I. J.]

Presently £25/year adult and £35/year family. Range fees £2. After 10 years free for life.
In an effort to get them off the streets and keep them out of trouble Juniors (under 17) have free membership and free range fees.
Non FAC rifles and pistols only. Indoor (40yds and 10m) and outdoor woodland ranges.

NOW MODIFIED. See later post.

At my university, £50 per year for the fullbore club, £30 per year for the smallbore.

I have life membership to my school's old boys' club for £10.

All don't impose any additional fees for visits etc (obviously we split the cost of a hired lane when shooting at Bisley).

Still using my three years of free membership to the NRA as a school leaver..

..And still a member of my school's target rifle club which hasn't cost me a thing (they're my primary club on my FAC).

£150 seems /way/ too steep.

Hi Romford Rifle & Pistol Club is £150 per annum for adults but no range fee.

We have a new indoor air pistol and 25-100 m outdoor ranges that are all new. i don't think that is too bad for the year.

Regards

£40 a year with £1.50 range fee for indoor, £5 for Altcar.

[kieran turner]

£35 a year, nuff said.

That gets you 365 day access( gate key is extra), ability to shoot at other NEFTA free of charge. An open ticket to all round abuse from fellow club mates!

[John Bedford]

Worcester Norton (firearms & air) £120pa for full membership, no range fees.

Hard to do an honest comparison here.

Do HFT clibs have to register with the home office or NRA? If your club owns its range then the (silly) fees to Landmark + overtime pay to the range warden do not come into it. How many members against how many active members does your club have (makes a big difference). Need to do an 'apples for apples'

My club fees currently run £40/year membership + a £10 range fee on the local military range (100-600 yard targets every meet + McQueens) normally twice a month and a £3 range fee on a 100 yard range twice a month. No competiton or target fees. This level covers costs + prizes, no signinifcant profit (I know this as I'm the club Chairman).

Compared to Golf (a good walk spoilt by 18 diassapointments ) then powder burning rifle club fees do not see too bad?

Clubs solely for air rifles below 12fpe do not currently have to register with either NRA or NSRA nor do they need Home Office approval.

However we have found it to be very worthwhile to keep the Firearms department of the local constabulary informed, and we let the local PCSO know well in advance if we are putting on a larger than usual shoot.
