Derwent Valley Field & Game was established in 1973 by members of the New Norfolk community with an interest in shooting the clay target discipline of sporting clays and was one of the first Sporting Clay ranges in Tasmania. We now have over 50 active members.  The club is situated on the picturesque banks of the Derwent river side of 1065 Boyer Road,New Norfolk.

Our licensed range is located 10km from Bridgewater on Boyer Rd and covers 16 acres on the banks of the Derwent River.  Today, the range supports the shooting disciplines of Trap, Skeet, Sporting Clays and English Sporting and is a member of the Field & Game Federation of Australia inc. Our shoots are held on the 3rd Sunday of each month, commencing at 9.30am.

The majority of our shoots are 100 targets of Sporting Clays. In this event targets of various size and colour are thrown in singles or pairs using the terrain to mimic true field shooting. Clay target shooting, especially Sporting Clays is a truly challenging and rewarding sport.

New members are always welcome and practice days are open for all prospective members to come along and test their skills.

Welcome to Season 2012

Our Club has now been operating for some thirty five years in a lovely location overlooking the Derwent River one of Tasmanias largest freshwater rivers.

The majority of events throughout this year will be sporting clays and of course we'll be holding another of the hugely successful Vintager Days.

Sporting clay target events consist of clay targets thrown from mobile throwers positioned in a variety of locations for each shoot thus simulating a hunting trip whereby the game/targets are presented at all sorts of angles.

A challenging yet rewarding sport to which existing and potential new members are both encouraged to come along and enjoy.
