25.01.2022 Hi everyone Our final comp of the year is on this coming Sunday 29th November. The banner says it all. The GAMEBORE BIG BIRD SHOOT is always one of the best sh...oots we have throughout the year. We all like challenging targets and this comp is full of them, you will not be disappointed. Sadly, we lost a member last week, Nick Malanos is no longer with us and we will be dedicating this shoot to him. Gamebore ammo is available, canteen will be open, 9am start. We welcome all licenced shooters at our club to compete, if you do not have an SCA grade then you will be graded on the day. We are a Covid-19 safe club and follow the guidelines set out by Sport NSW including social distancing and sanitizing, if you are feeling unwell please do not attend. See more

25.01.2022 Hi Everyone This coming Saturday, 12th September, is another PRACTICE DAY at this club. All that shot at our club last weekend praised the targets so much that... we will leave them unchanged (hence same flyer). If you have never shot sporting clays and want to really challenge yourself as a clay target shooter, then this is the perfect day to come and try, no comp, no pressure just total enjoyment. We welcome all licenced shooters to our club, you do not need to be a member to enjoy our range. We will have 10 stands open with 42 challenging throwers giving a variety of the best targets. Tee off is 9am, We have Gamebore and Cleaver ammo available and the canteen will be open. This club is obeying all the NSW Sport Covid-19 guidelines which include social distancing, sanitizing and restricting regional travelers. If you are experiencing any symptoms or live outside the Greater Sydney Area please do not attend. We must all stay safe to stay open. See more

23.01.2022 Hi everyone The range is set for this coming Saturday, 5th September, for our first (of 4) PRACTICE DAYS this month. We have worked all day to prepare this rang...e and it is an absolute cracker!! If you liked the Gamebore Big Bird Shoot last Sunday then you will love this setup. 10 stands with 42 throwers. We have tweaked and changed many targets, added new targets, extra stands and throwers. We have kept the most popular stands from Sunday pretty much the same if you would like to practice on them (stands 8, 9 and 10 is similar). Stand 7 has new targets and a mix of the old, all up 6 throwers on that stand. The range will open at 9am, please present yourself to Barbara and Dana at the office before entering the range. Australian Sporting Clays Sydney welcomes all licenced shooters but please be aware that this club is obeying all the NSW Sport Covid-19 guidelines which include social distancing, sanitizing and restricting regional travelers. If you are experiencing any symptoms or live outside the Greater Sydney Area please do not attend. We must all stay safe to stay open.

21.01.2022 Hi everyone We have a huge year of shooting ahead of us here at Australian Sporting Clays Sydney. We have 15 competitions through the year including the SCNSW S...TATE SELECTION SHOOT #5 and the SCNSW FITASC "OLD STYLE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP. All up we are open a whopping 46 days! Here is the 2021 calendar for you to save onto your system, diarize the shoots dates so you never miss out on a comp.

20.01.2022 Dear members and visitors. An important update to you all. Due to the current NSW government guidelines ASCS will be asking all members and visitors to familiar...ise themselves with the current Covid 19 restrictions prior to attending the range. If you feel you do not meet these guidelines for any reason do not attend the range. These measures are for both individual and community safety and must be strictly observed by all attending either club practice days or club competitions. The Committee therefore request that only shooters residing in the Greater Sydney metropolitan area attend the ASCS range for the next six-week period. To our traveling Shooters we regret these circumstances but look forward to the future when we will once again enjoy your visits. Thanks for your compliance during these unique times, your acceptance of these new conditions has been exceptional. Social distancing and sanitizing whilst on the range has been fantastic. Hopefully this extreme restriction will be over quickly. Regards Australian Sporting Clays Sydney President Paul Smidt

20.01.2022 Hi everyone I am putting this competition up early as it will be a cracker! Sunday 18th October will be our ENGLISH SPORTING COMPETITION (Club point score eve...nt). This will be an event shot over 4 separate ranges, 120 targets in total ALL SHOT AS PAIRS, (no singles). There is no gun position rules with this comp, you can shoot gun up if you like. ENGLISH SPORTING is one of the most challenging sporting events as you have no second chances, but it is up there as one of the most enjoyable competitions, you will not be disappointed. Our rangesetters will set up four ranges of 30 targets per range. I am excited!! Now the even better news. This comp will have 3 categories, 12g U/O, Sub-Gauge and Side by Side, all separate comps (for those that have a Sub-Gauge Side by Side you will have to pick one group, sorry). There will be HIGH GUN PRIZES IN THE THREE CATEGORIES and then ALL will be competing for A, B, C, LADIES and JUNIORS to third place as normal. We will tee off at 9am, the canteen will be open and Gamebore and Cleaver ammo is available at the range. Our club welcomes ALL LICENCED SHOOTERS to compete, you will be graded on the day. For those that have never shot Sporting Clays before our club welcomes you to try, our members are always happy to help and coach you (unless you are shooting better than them, then sorry, all bets are off). Please be aware that our club follows all the Covid-19 safety guidelines including social distancing and sanitizing at every stand. Please bring your own sanitizer for extra protection and remember, to stay open we have to stay safe. Please share this with your shotty mates and put it in your diary as a 'must shoot' event.

19.01.2022 Hi everyone This coming Sunday, 30th August, is our GAMEBORE BIG BIRD SHOOT. This comp was created when a group of members asked the rangesetters for tougher t...argets, so a comp was created to appease these members . Who was to know that this comp would be one of the most popular. It seems everyone wants to hit tough, challenging targets. I have been helping Tom Zorgious set up the range and I can tell you the targets look amazing, especially the Sim Pair on the second stand and the pair of overhead birds on stand 7. This comp is 104 target novelty Sporting Event. We welcome all licenced shooters to compete and you will be graded on the day. Prize Pool, we will be awarding HIGH GUN, A, B amd C Grade to 3rd Place and LADIES and JUNIORS to 3rd place. The canteen will be open and the comp will kick of at 9am, the canteen will be open all day. Our club obeys all the Covid-19 guidelines and encourages social distancing and sanitizing. There is sanitizer on every stand but, like many members, take out your own. Also, we are restricting this comp to people residing in the Greater Sydney Area to conform with the latest Health NSW recommendation. Please stay safe.

17.01.2022 We have just been advised by our State association that both the State Selection shoots on 5 and 6 September have been 'postponed' due to the recommendations set by NSW Health and Sport. Here is the transcript from our State President, Andrew Fairfield-Smith. You are permitted to say "Bugger". Hi All Unfortunately, as you would be aware the saga continues with the Covid restrictions. Earlier this week a notice was issued by the NSW department of health regarding Community... Sports which has been well posted on this site. We have waited a few days to see how this was going to progress with the continuing improvement on reduced Covid cases in NSW. Not much luck on that front. Which leaves us with no choice but to, as a minimum postpone the Sydney / Cooma Selection weekend and most probably the State Championships. Where to from here re- the State program? Hard to say. I believe we wait and see what developments occur over the next 1 - 2 weeks. Unfortunately, we are running out of 2020 (Could be a good thing) As to club shoots. I know some clubs have already taken steps to put out notices regarding restricting movements between zones. I do not think there is much choice on this. On the bright side for the moment we can still hold local events. I wish I had better news Funnily enough you can still get on a bus travel to the Snowy Mountains from anywhere in the state. Do breakfast, lunch and dinner pub whatever?? 1 day, 2 day or weeks? No issues??? Andrew Fairfield-Smith President. Sporting Clays NSW 0413 013 689 See more

08.01.2022 Hi everyone Our Gamebore Big Bird Shoot has come to a close, and what a cracker it was!! 12 squads, 67 shooters, came to tackle Tom Zorgios' range, and it was... conquered. Many feel that this was one of the best and most technical ranges we have ever set for a Big Bird Shoot. I am sure the springs on the throwers will be looking forward to a well earned rest for a while. Huge thank you to all the rangesetters that worked tirelessly to set up the range, to all that packed up and to Barbara and Dana in the office who together got us all out shooting in record time, and to Effie in the canteen keeping us fed and watered. We had a huge shoot off for High Gun between Tom Zorgios and Bryan Boon, also 2nd and 3rd in B Grade and 1st and 2nd in C Grade. The shoot off was pretty unique, and in keeping with the tough Big Bird tradition, 5 shooting positions in front of the clubhouse (starting at stand 6) shooting Sim Pairs off the huge cherry picker. High Gun shoot off went into sudden death and Tom Zorgios was victorious. Here are the results HIGH GUN TOM ZORGIOS 87 WELL DONE TOMMY!!!!

07.01.2022 Hi everyone Sunday 29th November is the very last comp of the year and what a cracker it will be. We finish the year off with the GAMEBORE BIG BIRD SHOOT. Thi...s is always one of the most popular comps during the year but we will like to remember and dedicate this day to a very loved member of our club. Nick Malanos passed away last Saturday, 14th November. To all the Malanos family, our condolences and we as a club are saddened by his passing. He will be missed by all that knew him here. Nick was a tireless worker for the club over many years.

As usual, a 9am start, 104 amazing targets, two ranges, Gamebore ammo is available and Tony will be at the grill. We welcome all licenced shooters at our club to compete, if they are not members of a Sporting Clays Australia club they will be graded on the day. Please invite your shotty mates.

02.01.2022 Hi everyone Now onto the next comp and it promises to be a brute (in a good way!). GAMEBORE BIG BIRD SHOOTS are always popular as they feature targets that are... a bit tougher, a bit more technical and a bit more frustrating but always great fun. To be held on SUNDAY 30th AUGUST. Come and shoot targets the big boys shoot. The Gamebore Big Bird competition will be 104 targets (four rounds of 26) . Please tell your mates and get a squad together. All licenced shooters are welcome and if you are not an SCA member you will be graded on the day.

01.01.2022 Hi everyone This coming Sunday, 10th January, your club is open for PRACTICE, up to 10 stands will be open and around 40 throwers giving you a huge array of t...argets. We will kick off at 9am, Gamebore Ammo is available and the canteen will be open. We welcome all licenced shooters at our club, and if you would like to bring a friend to try this amazing sport, we have P650 forms available and they can shoot under your supervision.

If you are from one of the Greater Sydney Hotspots, northern beaches, Croydon, Berala etc, please do not come, also, if you are showing flu like symptoms, then please refrain from coming.

01.01.2022 After every shoot a dedicated group of workers packs up the range and locks everything up till we shoot again, but it is made harder by having to pick up scores... of discarded shell cartridges thrown by shooters and not picked up. At a competition, under SCA rules, you will lose targets if you do not put cartridges in the bin. On a practice day, it is just common courtesy. Please remember that every cartridge thrown has to be picked up by someone else, someone that just wants to get home. See more

01.01.2022 Hi everyone Wow, it is hard to believe it is a year since we were all together for a Christmas shoot! It has been a year that we will all remember as one of th...e worst in our known history, a year of fires, floods and contagions. We were isolated in our homes, we were unable to see family and friends, we were unable to do most of the things we love. Thankfully, we have begun to pull ourselves out of this, we have all sacrificed and now there is some light there, so this is now a time to celebrate our friends and family (and have a bit of fun for ourselves) with a Christmas Shoot Party. This coming Saturday, December 5, is our annual Christmas Shoot and Flush. From 9am, we will have all 10 stands open for PRACTICE including Stand 7, it will have the ever so popular FLUSH set up with a bucket load of throwers shooting clays in all directions. A four man flush ($10 per person) will throw 100 targets for you all to shoot at. This is not a comp, just pure fun. This is a cash only stand please. The canteen is open, Chef Tony is preparing a beautiful Christmas feast for a minimal fee of about $10pp (our club members are free). We welcome all licenced shooters at our club. They do not need to be a member to attend, but, rest assured, we would love them to join. We are a Covid-19 safe club, we follow the guidelines set out by Sport NSW including social distancing and sanitizing, if you are feeling unwell please refrain from coming.
