Dear all, For any of you not signed up to the facebook event, it has been announced that the date of BUSA Outdoors has been moved back to Saturday June 21st. This has been done partly in order to enable camping to take place. The camping is being provided under (as yet undefined) strict rules and we will have to put a cash deposit down as a club - they're taking it very seriously. Also, the shoot has World Record Status, which means that full GNAS dress code rules will apply, that is, white, dark green or registered club colours only (no tie-dye from Hallam this year...) Anyone who isn't familiar with the dress rules should speak to a senior member of the club who'll be able to help you out. More information will no doubt follow in the coming weeks. Ian

But everyone loved the tie dye...
Anyhoo question. what are the colours allowed for trousers? I'm someone said that the club had registered black for our trouser colour but I just want to confirm it. Oh and also the GNAS dress code doesn't happen to mention long socks anywhere does it?...

It doesn't mention long socks, but it also doesn't forbid them either. Should be fine.
I'm not sure if you can use ShUAC colours, being from Hallam as you are. Can someone shed some light on whether you're allowed to shoot in the colours of one club when representing a different institution?

Can someone shed some light on whether you're allowed to shoot in the colours of one club when representing a different institution? I wouldn't like to be quoted on it, but as a member of ShUAC (according to your GNAS membership card) I think you'd have to shoot in our colours but you could have your score count towards Hallam. Last time I checked we didn't have a registered trouser colour so it'll be dark green or white only.

hmmm... When you turn up to a shoot in club colours, Im fairly sure its meant to be the club you are shooting for I dont think that when club colours were allowed that it was so you could be a member of 2 clubs, shoot for one and wear colours for the other because you prefer their colours... Just a thought

Just a thought If everyone who comes to Goodwin looks at their membership cards it says Sheffield University AC, whose registered colours are our blue & yellow shirt. In that respect it must be an open-and-shut case...? From BUSA's point of view it's which university you're registered with that's important and not which club you shoot with - or am I wrong? I'm not saying it's ideal but that's how it reads to me.

Just a thought Only applies when both clubs are GNAS registered and both clubs have registered club colours. In that situation you must shoot in society colours or club colours for the club for whom you are shooting i.e. the club your GNAS membership number is associated with. At BUSA as it is World Record Status it is purely on FITA and GNAS rules - BUSA eligibility applies only to make this a closed status shoot. There is absolutely no problem with our Hallam members wearing the blue and gold (which it should be noted is registered with and without crest and without defining the crest so it CAN have a Hallam logo on regardless of the rumours that have been flying around)

If it's that controversial then I'll just wear white. I don't want to start a fuss.

The club has previously paid the printers to design a layout with the Sheffield Uni crest, so there was no extra cost to use it again, but to make specific Hallam shirts would cost extra and as we are a Sheffield Uni club I didn't think it was fair that the club paid for it. As there was only one Hallam member ordering a shirt I gave her the option of paying extra for a different design and she declined. The other issue which I never got clarified as it became irrelevent, was a legal one. Acoording to the university's club and society publicity guidelines the Uni Sheffield logo is only allowed to be used by registered clubs and societies of the University of Sheffield. I assume the same applies to the Sheffield Hallam logo (though didn't get as far as confirming this) and our club is not officially affiliated with the Hallam Union, so I don't think we have a legal right to use it. Regardless of GNAS regulations this needs to be clarified with someone at Hallam's Student Union.
