Hi  Les

Dave Waters used to organise the events in Sydney for both Rimfire and Centrefire and then would get someone at each event to to run point on the day. Dave would arrange the dates, the trophies, medals and Fly patches as well as getting the event published in the Journal. I used to helpout with the rimfire at Silverdale and someone else would do the shoot at Hornsby and the shoots would be on a Saturday and Sunday so someone could shoot both if they wished.
Anyway, at I herd at the last centrefire at Hornsby there was a mixup with Fly patches or medals and of course some complaints were made and that was it for the volunteers that helped out - It was a real shame.
We had no such problems with the rimfire shoot, but because the two events went together we lost the rimfire event as well, it was called the Sydney cup if I remember. I am sure there will be a few shooters at the Batemans bay shoot who attended the shoots at Hornsby who will know more than me.
I still run a rimfire Fly shoot monthly at Silverdale, but its not a registered match.


Regards

Dave
