Re-Union 2009 Comrades' Shooting Competition

**BennytheBall** · 02-09-2009, 09:52

Well Gentlemen the shooting cups have now gone back to RHQ Wrexham to get polished for this year's competition. All branches will be glad to know that the "glorious Shotton and Deeside branch RWFCA" will not be entering the team or individual competitions this year because Mr Alan Thomas Individual winner last year can't make the reunion, work commitments and our team has split up do to the death of our branch president and other team members who can't make the reunion for various reasons, (We don't use "ringers" like some branches) and I the one and only is heavly involved with the standard bearers competition and parade.

So gents its anyone's this year, good luck to all teams entering (we'll be back with a vengence next year)

It will be a great weekend again, see you all there.

Best Regards
Benny Ball
Hon Secretary
Shotton and Deeside Branch RWFCA

Benny

As ever, you see the Shooting Comp through a particular dodgy pair of glasses you picked up on one of those RQ courses you've attended!
Of course your memory is not quite what it was, but just to refresh it if I may? 2006 and 07 saw the majority of the trophies going West to Aberystwyth, is that not correct Benny?

I'm sure that the competition will be as keen this year as it's always has been and let the best shot(s)take the trophies. As long as they come back to Aber!!!!

Getting excited now,I've even started packing only to shut Shirley up! Ha Ha

Gentlemen

It looks like the "Guantlet" has been thrown down once again. Watch out Saturday morning things might change course?

Paul H and Paul 01 could you have taken the bait ( ask yourselves is Benny doing a bit of physcological warfare LOL!)?

Hope to see you both over the weekend and have a beer or 2?

Best Regards

Benny forget Paul H we to have problms because our non firing captain is unavailable for this weekend and our SAM is our motivation . however if you pull a team together may the best team win ,with no rigging from the perminent staff, if you receive give my regards to ARTHUR and wish him a second happy retirement. Yours as ever sam. don't forget Aber is where the cream is...

Individual competition went to Blackwood and Bargoed. But once again the Team comp went to ABERYSTWYTH. With that in mind I know Benny will get Shotton and Deeside members practising again for 2010 to try and wrestle the Cups away!

There we are Benny the gauntlet's been thrown down for next year!!!

As Im posted to Queensferry, may I offer my skill at arms training to Bennys boys in order for them to regain their rightful place as top dogs in the shooting department. Foresee a reaquaintance with the marksmanship principles for some. Shotton and Deeside shall reign again. Hingey, your success will be short lived. However enjoy your success and well done.
