BASC to School

300 Scouts were introduced to shotgun shooting at the Suffolk Punch Scouts event, which ran from the 12-14 August.

Highlands and Islands MSP, Edward Mountain, presented prizes to young shots at Moy Country Fair, as part of an initiative to encourage more Highland youngsters to participate in country sports.

Thousands of Scouts and Guides were introduced to clay pigeon shooting by BASC at this year’s Poacher Jamboree.

We were delighted once again to be back at the New Forest Show after a three-year break.

Run by BASC and the Scottish Youth and the Countryside Education Trust, the event saw more than 100 young people take part during the Scottish Game Fair this weekend.

A massive thank you to Conor Lewis of Lavin Guns, for sponsoring our Young Shots Activity Day at North Antrim Rifle and Pistol Club (NARPC).
