Wimbledon Park Rifle Club - Shooting Club in Southfields

Wimbledon Park Rifle Club is a private club that has provided small bore shooting for more than a century. Tucked away in a peaceful location in Southfields, the club features a variety of outdoor ranges that are perfect for shooting all year round, thanks to its covered shooting areas that provide shelter from the elements. Among its offerings is a rare 100-yard range, which is one of the few of its kind in London. Members can choose from a range of shooting distances, including 25-yard, 50-yard, and 100-yard prone “small bore” 0.22 cartridge shooting, as well as a 10-meter air gun range that caters to 4.5mm/0.177-inch pistols and rifles.

Wimbledon Park Rifle Club welcomes newcomers to the sport and offers a good selection of club rifles and equipment for those who are new to the sport. The club also hosts special coaching evenings for novices, where they can learn how to safely and correctly handle a rifle and eventually shoot at a competitive level.

The club encourages its members to participate in a range of competitions, with a simple handicapping system that rewards those who excel. Wimbledon Park Rifle Club members regularly compete at the county, national, and international levels. Small bore target shooting is an inclusive sport that knows no age or gender boundaries, with women competing equally with men at most levels. The club’s strength lies in its experienced members, including Great Britain and England Team Coaches, Olympic Officials, and seasoned shooters who offer valuable experience and advice to both new and seasoned members.
