Club members can turn up at any time they want and shoot for as long as they want during opening times (provided you book on the website and Sports and Wellbeing). However, when shooting outdoors we kindly ask that you either turn up at the beginning OR stay until the end to help with setting up or taking down the range.
PLEASE NOTE: You will have to have completed the Beginners’ course to be eligible to shoot at these times.
Indoor Season (September – March)
We shoot in the Team Southampton Sports Hall (also known as the “SUSU sports hall”) located on Level 1 of Building 42 (the SUSU building) on the Highfield campus. If you are unsure where to find this, please speak to the SUSU reception staff and ask for the location of the hall.
Opening Times
- Monday: 17:30 – 21:30
- Wednesday: 16:30 – 20:30
- Friday: 13:30 – 16:30
Outdoor Season (April – September)
During the outdoor season we have access to a 100m field on the ‘Island Site’ at Wide Lane Sports Ground. Wide Lane is the main university sports facility, and is based up near Southampton Airport Parkway; a 15 minute bus ride from Highfield. The Island is a short stroll from the car park past the tennis courts and through the underpass.
Public Transportation
Bus:
The closest stop is (Southampton) Airport Parkway on the Unilink U1 service. The U1A buses terminate here, but some other U1 services stop here as well.
Train:
The closest station is Southampton Airport (Parkway), frequently called at by CrossCountry and South Western Railway. For those living near Portswood, South Western Railway provide a stopping service that stops at St Denys and (usually) Swaythling every hour. For those living near the center, trains frequently stop at Southampton Central. It may be cheaper to take the train, so do check prices.
Individual Transportation
Driving:
Wide Lane sports complex provides plenty of parking on-site. Access is usually fine for students and S&W members, otherwise you may have to press to call reception. If arranged previously with the keyholder, they may also let you park at the island site.
Cycling:
We recommend you park your bike at the island field where we shoot, at your own risk. Alternatively, bicycle parking spaces are provided near the Wide Lane reception. Directions depend on where you’re cycling from, so plan ahead.
Voi:
Southampton Airport and the Wide Lane sports complex are out of the Voi zone, so you cannot take the electric scooters there.
