Full policy: Indoor Range Policy, Club Rules.

In most cases (eg Club Days or events), the range will be under the control of a single Range Officer who has ultimate authority of all activities on the range at that time.

When & Where

• Season: 1 May – 30 September.
• Tuesdays and Thursdays, 6:00–8:30pm and the occasional other time as arranged. 
• Tauranga Racecourse, under the grandstand.

Can I Shoot Indoors?

• Current club member with a paid Indoor Range season or social attendance.
• Hold a Blue Badge (automatic), or
• Get assessed by a nominated coach — you’ll need to consistently hit a 60cm target at 18m.

Distance

• Generally 18m. Occasionally 25m for specific events — that’s the max this venue can do.

On the Night

• A Range Officer must be present — no self-run sessions indoors.
• One shooting line only.
• All doors/access points behind the targets must be shut before shooting starts.
• The Room is restricted entry via the main door only.

Because It’s Indoors

• Space is tight — no running, no sudden movement, watch your equipment near others.
• If anyone gets in through a door behind the targets, stop shooting immediately.
• If the lights go out or look unsafe, stop and check before continuing.

If Something Goes Wrong

• Stop shooting immediately and tell the Range Officer.
• See the Emergency — What To Do page if it’s serious.
• See the Report a Concern page for anything else worth noting.
