Which membership form should I be completing?

The financial (membership) year of RRGC runs from 1 July to 30 June in the following year.

NEW MEMBER APPLICANTS

Anyone interested in joining the Rifle Rod & Gun Club (Manawatu) for the first time must complete the New Member Application form. This form is also used for past members wishing to rejoin the club. 

A firearms licence is not required to join RRGC. However, there are restrictions on which activities you may participate in without a firearms licence.

  • Unlicensed members are restricted to Archery and Air Rifle activities unless under the immediate supervision of an appropriately licensed/endorsed member.
  • Unlicensed members may not purchase ammunition or use a firearm unless under the immediate supervision of an appropriately licenced/endorsed member.
  • Unlicensed members wishing to pursue both their firearms licence and B endorsement (including Junior members) require approval before being accepted into a pistol shooting section.

For licensed members who have an interest in pistol shooting:

If you are under 16 and wish to join a section of the club, we have arrangements in place to facilitate your membership. Contact the Club Administration Officer to discuss your options.


EXISTING CLUB MEMBERS WHO ARE RENEWING

Members who were financial for the preceding year of the club will receive an email with a link to renew membership. Pistol shooters renewals should be completed by the end of June to ensure we have the correct information for reporting. All other members will begin renewals in July.  If you have any questions or have not received a link to a membership form, please contact the Administration & Compliance Officer.


B ENDORSED SHOOTERS TRANSFERRING TO RRGC

If transferring from another Pistol club to RRGC, please fill out the online application form. Your previous club should also complete the inter-club transfer form on the Pistol NZ website and submit the form to both Pistol NZ and RRGC.


B ENDORSED SHOOTERS WHOSE HOME CLUB IS NOT RRGC

You are welcome if you belong to another pistol club and want to shoot at RRGC as a secondary club. Don't hesitate to complete the online application form, and a link to our member's registration form will be sent to you. 

When RRGC is not your home club, you are responsible for ensuring your Pistol NZ Affiliation Fee is paid and match attendance records are completed and submitted at the end of the year for B endorsement reporting purposes. We recommend that you maintain a manual record of all matches attended at RRGC.
