If you want pins in Gauteng to grow you are going to need to sort this out.
I don't feel Mountain Tactical can do that for you.
They (Mountain Tactical) represent Pin shooting in Gauteng.
If there are other clubs up in Gauteng please point me to them.
Mountain Tactical is the club which which shoots at the Roodepoort Internation Shooting Range (old Cecil Payne).

As A case in point I went to the website you put up for pistolBoy, and the GPSA - dates are wrong! Don't mean to bust your balls on this, but if you have info on a website it needs to be upto date and correct.
Valid points and noted. This will come up in the next SAPSF meeting.
About the website. Can't agree more. In the process of updating the info and ***ntionality of the site. The dates on there was for 2009 in any case. Should give you a clue as to the update date. But we now have a dedicated web master. So the site will be much better very soon.

Thanks for the input.

As for the Gauteng branch and if there are other clubs. I'll have to follow up for you on that. Keep watching this thread. Also SAPSF is in the process of re-organising the entire membership management structure. So provinces will be sending the dates to SAPSF and SAPSF will be forwarding all the information to it's members. Province admin should be limited to organising and running events and accomudating their shooters. The nitty gritty of managing their admin should be left to the national body. It's not any province's fault. The system was just legacy and worked well when pins was hosted by 1 province only. It cannot be run like that anymore and 2010 is a big year for getting us back into 2010 and not a flat file system pre 1980.....technology wise anyway.

Maybe check back with Pins in 2011. You'll find it a totally different sport. Well in organisation anyway. The core will still be good old fashioned fun. :to:
