“Official” LAA Tournaments

For “Official” LAA Tournaments at an LAA Club, LAA will advertise the shoot, collect entry fees, collate the target list, liaise with the host club and pay the host club:  

  • Boss hire: £20 per boss per day

  • Honorarium: £150 per day to hosting club

  • £7 per person for judges and scorer for refreshments for clubs putting on LAA shoots

  • Toilet hire – fee reimbursed if the host club has 2 or less toilets. A hire of up to 3 toilets will be reimbursed, the number of toilets will be dependant on the number of entries (organisers please be sensible)

  • Expenses: £25 per day to the Scorer

  • Mileage for Judges (30p per mile or 35p per mile if car sharing)

  • No further payments for field party refreshments at LAA Tournaments

The host club should claim all of the above expenses from the LAA Tournament Organiser:

tournaments@lancashire-archery.org.uk

All expenses must be claimed for on the LAA expenses claim form and submitted to the LAA TO.

LAA Judges Tent/Gazebo

LAA have a large tent/gazebo suitable for use at competitions by Judges. It is unreasonable to expect the Judges to sort out and transport the tent to each LAA Competition.

It has been agreed that Eccles AC will store the tent at EAC, from where it can be picked up for LAA shoots. The time of pick up and return to be agreed between the host club and EAC.

(In return for storing the tent, EAC get use of it for their own competitions and shoots.)

Other clubs may borrow the tent for competitions but must return it in full working order. The time for pick up and return to be agreed between the host club and EAC.

EAC Will not be responsible for checking the tent on its return. Please contact the LAA secretary if you wish to pick up or return the tent.

Open AGB Tournament held by an LAA Club

Payments currently made to clubs holding an open AGB tournament in Lancashire, will cease with effect from December 1st 2024.

These payments were for Judges/scorer food and Judges mileage, and were put in place to help clubs following COVID.

These fees should now be paid for out of the Club tournament funds.

This proposal was voted on (and unanimously agreed) at the November 2024 AGM.

Note - TOs may wish to present judges & candidates with £10 Amazon Gift Vouchers instead of the usual bottle of wine. These expenses should be met out of the tournament entry fees.
