Chance would be a fine thing. Sadly the STS website does not feature a Club Finder or any listings of clubs. Based on the STS website, they're more interested in selling you membership and a hoodie than helping a newcomer find their nearest club. Seems like a glaring oversight....

The fullbore clubs all tend to affiliate to the NRA as well - whilst the NSRA is seen as expendable (you can buy your targets from them and use their rule book without needing to affiliate ), the NRA holds the keys to the kingdom as far as Safe-Shooter cards and access to MoD ranges is concerned, so STS has no managed to muscle them out yet.
