Thank you to everyone who attended our 14th annual Portsmouth competition on Saturday 18th November 2023. 21 members of the club shot on the day, and it was great to see a lot of Ely Archers shooting shirts on the line in the first session.
In the end you all raised £230 for the local charity Branching Out who are based in Littleport from the sale of the raffle tickets. Thanks to those who looked after the raffle and cake table during the day and of course all of you who supplied raffle prizes.
Thank you to all the club member volunteers who helped set up the sports hall the night before. Thank you to those who then took the targets and stands back again on the Saturday evening and all those who helped on the day, we couldn’t do it without you.
