August 2020 Newsletter

Posted on 11th August, 2020

As some of you may be aware, last week The National Rifle Association acquired Bisley Shooting Ground and all of the business which runs from the main ground at Cottesloe Heath including the Colonial Victorian Clubhouse, known as the Council Club.

The staff and Instructors who have looked after you over the previous years will still be here to welcome you back, however we do have a new website and email addresses that we need you all to know about. Our website is no longer .co.uk but instead is www.bisleyshooting.com and below are the emails.

Bookings and General Enquires: office@bisleyshooting.com
General Manager – Richie Vallance: richie@bisleyshooting.com
Events Manager: events@bisleyshooting.com
Our phone number remains the same: 01483 797017

Bisley Shooting Ground will now be managed by Richie Vallance, details of his background can be found here. Richie has many exciting plans, all of which will undoubtedly give a new lease of life to the Cottesloe Heath ground and Clubhouse. However, the core of the business very much remains the same in terms of Lessons, Instructor Practice, Caddy and Group Shoots all of which are back in full operation and now available 7 days a week. Corporate and Charity Events will also remain part of Bisley Shooting Ground shooting, as soon as COVID-19 restrictions allow.

So, without further ado we will be kicking things off with a real bang and delighted to announce the first of our new style Club Shoots this Sunday 16^th August, further details below.

From Richie and all the team, we look forward to welcoming you on our new and exciting journey.
