Last update 1 July 2020 re Operating instructions re Covid 19,


IN ADDITION  to the MDRA Safety Plan and  NSWRA Protocols for Shooting on 1st July 2020, the following changes have been made to operations on the fullbore range. Definition of these rules is managed by the MDRA Committee. On-the-ground enforcement will be the responsibility of the MDRA Committee, Range Officer(s), and Chief Safety Officer(s).  

1.  We have removed the shifts system however it’s up to clubs if they want to continue to run  a booking system for the morning and afternoons.

2.  Members do not have to arrive, shoot then go. They can socialise provided they adhere to  the social distancing rules.

3. Congregation in your club house is OK provided you adhere to the 4m2 & hygiene rules

4.   Below is a slightly amended timetable with an earlier finish in winter as follows: 
AM:          0930 – 1200 
Lunch:     1200 – 1230 (opportunity to put in targets for the afternoon session)   PM:          1230 – 1630 (Includes Break: 1500 - 1515 to pack targets away) 
 
5. Bankstown/Chatswood to resume running the range in the morning i.e. 0930 - 1200
 
6.  Starting this Saturday, Duty clubs will be back running the range for the afternoon session,   noting the slightly earlier start and finish i.e. 1200 - 1630 
 
7.  Same range all day at least for July – this will be reviewed at a later date if we want to keep  this going into August and beyond.   

8.  Following is the program for July and August with the Duty Club listed. As with previous Duty  Club  Rosters, if a club has an issue with the date they have been assigned they are to  organise with another club to swap then advise the MDRA of the change.    
Jul 4       300m       Bankstown/Chatswood 
Jul 11     600m      Marrickville 
Jul 18      300m       Endeavour 
Jul 25      700m      Holsworthy   
Aug 1       800m       Concord 
Aug 8       500m        MNB 
Aug 15       600m        Port Jackson 
Aug 22       300m        Rail & Tram 
Aug 29       700m        Sydney   

9.  Referring to the MDRA Safety Plan document, Clubs MUST keep a register of who attends on  each occasion (including visitors).   

10. Cars must be parked as directed by the MDRA behind the mound. At 300m all cars  will be  parked on the other side of the road. 
 




 

Commencing 19 August 2017 on each Saturday please see the Club Captain at Rail & Tram's club house or on the mound at
our normal Target allocation of   
E9 & EX to complete the range register and pay fees.



Shooting is presently being conducted as per the attached memo below from the MDRA Secretary.
