Metropolitan Championships Report

17/2/2014

 
This weekend, a large group of Erina Archery Club Members competed in the 2014 Metropolitan & Matchplay championships at Homebush Olympic Park.  It was fantastic to be part of such a large team of Erina Archers representing our club.  Our team of 16 archers included male compound archers Anthony Helsby, Dean Conacher, Aron Stanley, and Rowan Miller; female compound archers Kerry Heath, Trish Richards and Kerry Dwyer; recurve archers Suzanne Carreon-O’Flaherty, Kelvin Heath, David Markham, David Coulthard and Bill Meldrum-Hanna and our junior team members Hayden Crampton, Ethan Helsby, Erin Waagan and Ichiro Gunnee.

Though the weather was not kind, it didn’t dampen our spirits and everyone had a great time shooting at the 2000 Olympics Archery range.  The rain and wind made for some challenging shooting conditions.  Otherwise it was a great venue and a well organised tournament.

Erina Archery Club was very successful with an impressive medal tally over the two days.  On day one, medal winners were Trish Richards (silver), Kerry Heath (bronze), Dean Conacher (bronze), Bill Meldrum-Hanna (silver), Hayden Crampton (silver), Erin Waagan (silver), Ichiro Gunnee (not one but two bronze medals !).  Day two Matchplay medal winners were Dean Conacher (silver), David Coultard (silver) and Hayden Crampton (bronze).

Special mention must go to Trish, Erin, Ethan and Ichiro who were competing in their very first shoot away from Erina, with Ichiro (Ichi) only recently having completed our beginners class.  Thanks also to the event organisers and judges which included David Robertson and Andrew Crampton from Erina.

The next event we are planning to compete in as a team is the Warringah Open on Saturday 22nd March.  Erina is defending the team trophy we won at this event last year.  It will be fantastic if we can have another big team at this event.

Canteen volunteers needed

5/2/2014

Ever since I joined the club we benefited by Shirley's work in the canteen.  She put in a great deal of work for us all and was an unsung heroin.  Not only did she keep us fed but her work resulted in a good income for the club which resulted in the shoot fees not only being kept low but being reduced !!!  these funds have also allowed us to upgrade our facilities and to prepare for future contingencies.

Now that Shirley is going to commence shooting again we no longer have her great support, nor do we have this income.

If there are any parents or others who are non shooters who could volunteer their time to support us I for one would be truly grateful.  There are other options which can be thought that may reduce the work load such as the one used at my daughter's pony club where someone will volunteer to cook up a large pot of nacho meat and sauce and then bring it in along with a few large bags of corn chips, grated cheese and plastic plates and sell them for $5 a pop.   I was surprised to see how popular that was with the kids there.  They never take any home. 

So perhaps if worse comes to worse if someone could do the heating up and selling/serving I might get motivated enough to get to cooking on a Friday night I could bring in the sauce and other ingredients. 

Any ideas and volunteers are welcome !!!

Erina Archery Club Team App released

5/2/2014

0 Comments

 
Picture
We have our own mobile application available for member and support use.  It provides quick access to a number of useful features such as quick access to arrow charts, club calendar, Barrie's blog and weather for both Erina and Sydney Olympic Park.  Most importantly though is the ability for the user to turn on notifications so the committee can communicate any important information immediately.  For example if a Saturday shoot is called off for some reason.  

The application is available for those who have an Android device or Iphone.   Search either the App Store for Apple devices or the Play Store for Android and search for "My Team App" , install the application and then search for Erina Archery Club and request access.
