This Monday saw the local final of the
Arthur Lee cup. The winners of this match go on to face whichever club wins to represent Southampton & District League. For the first time in quite a few years, Portsmouth City managed to reach the local final where we faced
Fareham. Just like the
Duttson Final we shot on a neutral range, this time Portsmouth Railway Rifle Club kindly provided the use of their range and a big thanks go to John Ring for scoring the cards, and again to Wayne Dugan for running the event.
This competition was teams of 6, shooting 2 cards each. Unlike a few of our other competitions, every team member's scores counted. Here's how it went:
Fareham - 1158
J. Lacey (97, 96)
D. Shepperd (96, 97)
D. Spendlove (99, 99)
P. Randall (98, 98)
T. Read (96, 94)
J. Hounsell (94, 94)

Portsmouth City - 1151
M. Nevatte (99, 97)
S. Hart (97, 95)
G. Scruton (99, 99)
I. Cooper (96, 99)
A. Nevatte (96, 94)
P. Upchurch (90, 90)

So a close match but unfortunately Portsmouth City will not go on to represent
Portsmouth & District this year against Southampton. Well done to Fareham and we wish them good luck in the final.
