Tuesday at Ash




Due to the many slip-ups that occurred in the range bookings (mostly caused by an unexpected change in ARA personnel), the team arrived at Ash Ranges first thing in the morning only to find that we had no range! With the kindness of strangers and the negotiating skill of our Liaison Officer, we ended up with Ash-1 (a short range) in the morning and Ash-2 (a better range) in the afternoon.

So, in the morning we practiced the 100- and 200-yard phases of Match 8 and in the afternoon we practiced the whole of Match 8 (5 phases). Most of the team was glad not to have any sprints longer than 100 yards as their legs had apparently turned to cement overnight.

At the end of the afternoon, we set up the falling plates and enjoyed a rare opportunity to practice the plates match.
