TONDU TARGET SHOOTING CLUB has been in existence under varying names since 1896. Although believed to have started out originally as a militia training range it was soon turned to civilian use and has remained so to this day. The land the club stands on was bought and gifted to the club many years ago thereby helping to ensure its continuing existence as a great venue for target shooting




The club is situated just off the A4063 Bridgend to Maesteg road, and approximately 1 mile from the village of Aberkenfig, giving easy access from jct. 36 of the M4. The range complex is situated alongside the river Llynfi and covers just under 4 acres of land. The surrounding trees and woodland give excellent screening from the road and houses, ensuring minimal noise disturbance to the local residents.
 

The Club has 5 ranges, 4 outdoor and 1 indoor range which is primarily used during the winter months and evenings. The complex consists of an outdoor 25 metre, 22 rimfire range fitted with turning targets and a covered firing point which is situated between the indoor range and the river. Prior to the 1997 pistol ban this range was used for  UIT "Rapid Fire pistol" but is now used primarily for rapid air pistol and .22 semi-automatic sporting rifles
