100 YARD STEEL PLATE LEAGUE

NOTES:
1. The 100 Yard League shoots every Sunday morning beginning with practice at 9:00 AM and league shooting at 9:30. When space is available, shooters may also shoot a practice round as part of the league shoot. The shoot is generally over between 12:00 and 1:00. Exceptions to the shoot dates are days the Golden Triangle Skeet League shoots, Easter, the Sunday after Thanksgiving, and days that special events are being held which limit access to the range and on those rare days when weather conditions do not permit shooting or restrict access to the range. On occasion Christmas and New Year’s are also non-shooting dates.
2. We shoot two leagues per year, The first generally runs from the first Sunday in
January through the last Sunday in June and the second from the first Sunday in July through the last Sunday in December. Because of bad weather in early January 09, the league start was delayed until JAN 25.
