Hi David,

I will save Les the job in answering your question. The R/F Fly Nationals are (just as the C/F) ACT's option for 5 years starting 2011. ACT has declined in both 2011 and 2012 and will possibly do the same in forth-coming years. I really do not know if another host can be appointed in 2012 - you would have to seek direction from the discipline chairman (Alex Chryss). Similarly, should you (third person plural) wish to host in future years you should direct your interest to your state delegates. So the bottom line is that rimfire Fly shooters will have to do the hard yards to get a Nationals up and running themselves. I can tell you this much - and that is, whenever Victoria gets the go-ahead to host a Nationals it is probable that we will not be able to include Rimfire as we have very limited interest in our own state and would need a significant show of interest from NSW in particular to achieve the minimum entry level (15 I think).
As all this is off-topic perhaps a new thread is called for on this subject.

Pete
