New to the Sport
When people start a new hobby, it is often a daunting prospect to find the right location and an environment which is welcoming. At Kibworth we aim to make this process as easy and inviting as possible. Our friendly team are on hand for you to try the sport in a safe controlled environment and to provide the best advice on what to do next.

We only use CPSA qualified instructors– The CPSA is the governing body for clay shooting in the UK and all of our instructors are trained to provide the best tuition. The other benefits include full coverage on our insurance and also being legally covered to shoot with our exemption under section 11(6) of the Firearm Acts 1968-1997. 

An introduction to Clay shooting is made up of two parts; classroom work and also shooting. To start the lesson, the instructor will take you into our coaching room where he or she will talk you through the principles of shooting. The instructor will talk you through your stance, gun positioning, any issues with eye dominance, aspects of lead and most importantly gun safety and ground etticate. Once our instructor is satisfied that you have got these fundamentals, you will go outside with your instructor where they will guide you through a series of twenty-five targets. The instructor will be wanting to achieve several things—getting you use to firing the gun, getting you to spot where you need to be shooting and also getting you natural with the gun so you are safe.

We require new customers to have at least two introductions, the second progressing your shooting and also reiterating your competence with safety. When you reach a competent standard, we will then progress you onto shooting with a member of our ground team. The ground team are not instructors, but they are experienced shooters who are there to supervise you until you are able to gain your own shotgun certificate.

Game & Clay Lessons
Shooters who are wanting to progress their shooting or would like to prepare for the game season would benefit from one of our hour lessons.

Our experienced instructors assess each shooter and correct any bad habits which they may have picked up. The lesson looks at all aspects of the shooter, whether it is correcting stance, problems with eyes or particular targets which the individual has problems with. There isn’t a problem which our team of instructors cannot find a solution.

Lessons can be booked six days a week, we recommend booking plenty of time in advance so that you can have a wider choice of times available.
