SOPA range closures
(see Archers Diary and Facebook for dates)
Occasionally the range is closed for maintenance and events. The Sydney Olympic Park Authority generously maintains our range to a very high standard and to do so they must close the range for maintenance occasionally and mow the lawn multiple times a week. We are very lucky to have one of the best clubs in Australia, but it does take time to upkeep. The committee will endeavour to pass along any range closures to our members in a timely manner however, as it is weather dependent, they can be short notice.
As part of the Archery NSW community, we need to support various state and national events and programs. With such a high calibre of archers, many of these events and programs are filled by mostly SOPA members and it is good to support our community where possible. The committee does understand the frustration of having to close the range for these events however we will work on notifying members of range closures as far in advance as possible.
For events the range will be closed but for programs will endeavour to only partially close the range (depending on participation numbers).
For Saturday’s club shoot (6am to 12pm) there is occasionally space available on the left side of the range for a couple of archers to practice but this is not guaranteed.
