Welwyn Phoenix Rifle Club’s Child Protection Policy
The NRA has advised all their associated clubs regarding the management of young people under their care during Club activities. They have advised us that we must meet the requirements of the NRA Child Protection Policy CP1 currently in force and have provided us with the full documentation enabling the clubs officers responsible for training young people to be fully aware of their responsibilities.
All relevant club officers have been provided with this document and following a Committee Meeting on 19 November 2009, it was agreed that WPRC would appoint a Child Protection Officer to meet the needs of CP1, if minors were joining in Club shooting activities.
An experienced Club officer volunteered his services in this respect as he had similar experience previously with the Scouting movement. He has subsequently been appointed as Club Child Protection Officer.
Welwyn Phoenix RC are very pleased to announce that they meet the requirements of the current NRA Child Protection Policy CP1 and are happy to continue accommodating minors at Club Guest Shoots, where they can take advantage of 1:1 training of the highest quality.
Guest
Shoots
Welwyn Phoenix is very pleased to offer their
facilities to all those interested in full bore rifle shooting.
The invitation can be extended to complete novices, where
careful training and skills coaching is provided and also
to accomplished target shooters who are either considering
a change of Clubs or possibly interested in trying out Full
Bore shooting in addition to their existing discipline.
Our
shoots take place in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere at
a moderate cost. Safety issues are the first priority as
always, particularly with guests who may not be familiar
with our range procedures.
We meet in the car park behind
the NRA offices at 0810am for a pre-shoot briefing and collection
of equipment. Shooting starts at 0830. If visitors arrive
slightly later, they need to find us on the ranges, details
of which are posted on the notice board outside the NRA Range
Office.
Details of our shoots can be found in the Shooting
Program and range details can be found on the NRA website.
Follow the links from the left of this page.
Applications
to join us as a guest must be received at latest 21 days prior
to the event. See further details on these Visitor
Days here >>>

In 2010 WPRC have continued to excel in both Individual and Team performance as can be seen by reference to other articles in this website.
Our 2011 season will open in Mid March and we again will be actively recruiting new members to improve our strength in depth.
Guests as always will enjoy their shooting with the club in an active and encouraging environment. In our program for 2011 and we are intending to offer nine Club shoots of which five will be designated for guests to attend. Approval by the NRA is expected in February.
