European F class championships

For you who are coming to the European F class championships the weather for the first four days of my forecast is sunny..
It's about time as the last 2 months of our summer has been terrible..
Wettest July i can remember and August has been poor..

Yeah we've had a few sunny days but overall shite weather..
Nights are drawing in already and dark by around 8.30pm..
A really poor summer even for our standards..
I'm sure several of you will remember the team shoot forever as a cloud burst early in the shoot..!!
Wow the heavens opened up lol.!!
The wind didn't turn up though..!!
With the queen dying and inclement weather including a delayed start and shortened matches on the Sunday due to the fog it wasn't such a bad competition..
You'll came along way for very few matches..
Let's hope it's for a better around competition this year..!!
The prizes this year is off the scale thank to sponsors..
Safe journey

alternative EU championships take place in continental Europe. Targets are smaller than at GBFCA event. E.g. 800m x-ring is 75mm.
 
Fantastic start by the US open shooters!

Yes, it is - most impressive! Remember though that these are the 'minor' matches. Getting on for half of the actual European Championship competitors including many 'home' competitors have yet to turn up. The Euros actually run Friday to Sunday with the individual matches Friday and Saturday, teams matches Sunday morning. Many UK competitors who shoot regularly at Bisley just put in a couple of these preliminary matches to get back into the groove, check their zeroes and suchlike. Conversely, visiting competitors including those from the rest of Europe, usually make an entire shooting week of it.

Having said that, it looks like American visitors are going to put up some really stiff competition this year. There is also some red-hot competition from continental Europe which has often produced the European F-Open champion in recent years.
