------------------------

This year the cut-off scores are as follows :

Air Rifle Novice Squad	:	65

Air Rifle Experienced Squad :	75

Free Rifle Novice Squad :	80

Free Rifle Experienced Squad :	90

These scores must be achieved twice in three consecutive
ladder cards or three times in a standard sixty-shot
competition. The squads are also limited in size. The novice
squads comprise 6 shooters each and the experienced squads
12. You qualify for novice squads in your first year of
shooting that discipline. You may belong to both air and
free rifle squads. Should more than the maximum number of
people qualify, the top 12 or 6 shooters will be chosen.

Note that joining squads, while not mandatory, does confer
certain bonuses. The Squads are the competitive heart of the
club and as such get an extra slot of time each week for
training, during which their ammunition is free. Each member
(equipment permitting) will be assigned a cheekpiece for air
rifle, which we then adjust to them personally. In return,
they are expected to turn up to the majority of competitions
and training sessions (specifically they are expected to
attend at least half the training sessions in any given
month and at least two out of every four competitions . The
Air Rifle Colours squad is chosen from the air rifle Squads,
and so represents the club competitively at the Colours.
