Although, due to unfortunate circumstances, Barry Jones has resigned as IoMRA Competition Secretary, he has agreed organise the C & D league and under 21 competitions where shooters of equal standard can compete on a regular basis. Barry will be off the Island until late October and he has asked if eligible names could be emailed to him on barryandjaccie@manx.net with the leagues expected to commence during November. The formats for the competitions are “to be shot over a four month period with 2 cards each month at a cost of £3.00 per head per competition”.

To maintain competitive competitions throughout the winter months, the IoMRA ask each club for their support for entries – the entry charges of £3 per comp are not vast and your support will enable the IoMRA to provide excellent prizes at the end of the season. Please forward your entry list to Barry as soon as possible during October.
