NATSS July Press Release

At a recent meeting of the Steering Group of the four Promoters, a first draft Constitution for the New Body was considered. This reflected the views of UK Target Shooters that emerged following the On-line Survey and the Home Country/Regional Workshops held earlier this year.  The Constitution will be designed to be flexible and recognition will be given to the special position of the Home Countries target-shooting Governing Bodies. It will provide all UK target-shooting participants with the opportunity to join and benefit from the new organisation. The constitution will be progressed in conjunction with the High-level Strategic Plan being developed under the guidance of the Facilitators, Performance Matters.

 

Under the leadership of the Performance Matters, the following additional Working Parties were set up.

1.    To consider the plan to fulfil the objective of one membership structure based on individual membership.

2.    To prepare a Financial Model and Budget Plan.

 

The above work and proposals emerging will be put to a second and, probably, final Key Stakeholders Forum at the end of the year. A central, convenient, venue for this meeting is being sought.

 

In the meantime, the three National Governing bodies are cooperating in a single bid to Sport England for Target Shooting development 2009-2013.
