Welsh FITA Star shoots?

I fancy visiting my homeland to do a shoot next year, and was wondering about two things:

Can anyone recommend a good FITA Star to shoot, in Wales? North or South, not bothered which.

Secondly, do these shoots qualify for Welsh Feather awards? I dont know of anyone who has achieved a feather award, so I'm not certain whether they still exist?

ahh fantastico!! Is this on the 20 Sept? I think it might be a little late to get to it for this year, but I'll definitely be there next year then!

BTW, what's the Daffodil award?

Sorry to jump in - there used to be a good site for explaining awards, but the link appears to have died!
Whats the criteria for these Welsh awards then?

Well if they're along the same lines as Roses and EAF Crosses, it'll be the following:

(FITA) Crosses in England, Feathers in Wales, Thistles in Scotland (what does NI have?)
950 - white
1050 - black
1150 - blue
1250 - red
1325 - gold


(York) roses in England, and clearly daffodils in Wales. Not sure what Scotland or NI have.
800 - white
900 - black
1000 - blue
1100 - red
1200 - gold

My understanding is that GNAS issue the York awards, and the respective country's Federation issues the cross (in the case of England) or Feather (Wales) etc.

FITA Stars are:
1000, 1100, 1200, etc and are also issued by GNAS.

dont know yet if they are different from the old style.
