Welcome new Members to Uxbridge Clays Target Sports!

As a newbie shooter, you might be a little shell shocked at first with all the activity that goes on at the club. You will find that shooters will be welcoming and friendly towards you, and if you would like to join a squad - just ask. Squads tend to be no more than 5 people at a time for time expediency reasons. Start by looking for small squads that are starting and assembling at station #1 on any of the fields. Have Stephen at the Front desk introduce you around to get you started on your first few rounds. In your first two visits:

1. Get your club ID card from Stephen at the Front Desk, please visbily wear it so we kow who you are
2. Please Sign-in using the sign-in log sheets near the front desk on every visit, it is a mandatory requirement by the Chief Firearms Office of Ontario
3. Download and get acquainted with the Safety Check Process Word doc by following this

Our Saftey Checkoff Process

All members are required to sussessfully complete this process before you can shoot unsupervised, and before you are allowed to supervise any guests that accompany you. The purpose of the saftey process is for you to learn saftey and protcol procedures that should become second nature to you. Typically, good habits are learned after repeating about 30+ rounds of skeet, so do not expect to develop these good habits overnight and in some cases we may NOT pass you if we feel you have not yet developed the good safety habits that we are looking for.  Remember this process is to protect you, your fellow shooters and the club. You will need to obtain 3 signatures from a senior member, club director or instructor before advancing to the Induction Seminar and Workshop.

Following the three signature requirement, we will automatically schedule you for a final induction workshop with a Director or Instrucutor of the club on the second Sunday of the month. So enjoy the shooting experience and note the following simple steps: 

1. Start shooting and obtain your first 3 signatures; please note the Front Desk will keep all forms in progress including the final sheet when all signatures have been completed
2. The FrontDesk will schedule an induction session automatically after your 3 signatures have been obtained
3. The Induction Session and final saftey checkoff will be conducted by a Director of the club 
4. If you feel you would prefer to have a one on one instruction with a club instructor to learn the ropes you may book a personal time at a nominal cost for members; pease book a time slot at the FrontDesk.

Happy shooting! Please reach out to me with any questions or concerns.
