    As result of the COVID-19 virus outbreak that is now occurring throughout Europe, the committee of the NASRPC has regrettably decided to postpone all National Competitions until the 29th of March.

    We will continue to monitor the situation, taking advice from the Government & HSE and will provide updates accordingly.

    Please continue to follow the guidelines issued by the HSE.

    Stay safe and well,

    The Committee,
    NASRPC

    I see some ranges are now informing members of a voluntary self isolation type situation. IOW as ranges are open air and never really packed together it's a case of remain a safe distance from other shooters, but if concerned at all don't attend.

    There is also a lot of murmurings about further/new shut downs coming this week with the social services announcing how to apply for temporary illness and jobseekers for those expecting to be sent home from work with their workplace closing. This has already started within the service industry with pubs, restaurants and hotels closing under their own steam, but has since been mandated (from the 15th/last night).

    Citizens information has a regularly updated list of current measures which can be found here.

    NARGC GUIDANCE TO RGC’S, CLUBS AND THEIR MEMBERS

    The Irish Government and Health Care experts have issued guidance on social distancing. At the weekend, they have, by consent, closed pubs and other establishments. This is unprecedented in Ireland particularly for St. Patrick’s Day.

    The NARGC asks all its Associate Members to stringently adhere to these restrictions. These measures have been taken for good and solidly based reasons, the main one being – TO SAVE LIVES ! Those lives could be some of us, our family or friends. The threat is that real and it is upon us. Just look at Italy and Spain, where it now appears to be out of control.

    We as individuals, Clubs and RGC’s, MUST NOT ENGAGE IN ANY ACTIVITY that brings people together. All Meetings and indoor gatherings or any kind should be postponed, irrespective of constitutional rules or whatever. This threat surpasses all normal considerations.

    As for outdoor events, these must be judged on their merits. Ask yourselves if social distancing can adequately be applied to a proposed activity or event. Remember it is always difficult to socially distance, even at an organised event, but we have little choice with what we are now facing into. If in doubt, do not engage. Cancel it. Always err on the side of caution.

    Scary times. Stay safe everyone.

    Dan Curley,
    National Chairman, NARGC
