    Congratulations you are eligible to handle a firearm. There are just a couple of important factors you need to agree to:

    I acknowledge and agree that it is an offence to handle firearms whilst under the influence of drugs or alcohol and I confirm I will not be under the influence of any drugs or alcohol on the day of my event.

    I acknowledge and agree that if my instructor suspects a participant is under the influence of drugs or alcohol on the day on my event, they will be asked to leave and will forego their registration fees.
