National Motor Museum Monorail

The Beaulieu Monorail is England's oldest still running monorail, linking the National Motor Museum to the Beaulieu Palace House. The monorail line passes through the main museum building, allowing passengers to see the automobile collection from above. The line was formally opened 29 July 1974. In late 2023 the museum applied for planning permission to demolish the south station on the basis that most passengers ride the entire loop from the main station. The New Forest National Parks Authority granted permission at the end of December 2023. References External links Flickr

National Rifle Association of the United Kingdom

Die National Rifle Association (NRA; „Nationale Schützen-Vereinigung“) wurde 1859 in Wimbledon als Organisation für das Sportschießen und Training an Schusswaffen im Vereinigten Königreich gegründet. Sie ist heute eine der Dachorganisationen für Schießsport in Großbritannien und nicht zu verwechseln mit der einflussreichen National Rifle Association in den Vereinigten Staaten. Geschichte Die am 16. November 1859 gegründete National Rifle Association erhielt 1890 von Queen Victoria eine Royal Charter. Im selben Jahr wurde das „National Shooting Center“ in Bisley (Grafschaft Surrey) in Betrieb genommen. Gründungsziel der Organisation war es, Spenden für ein jährliches nationales Schützentreffen (heute bekannt als Imperial Meeting) zu sammeln, „um die Treffsicherheit im Interesse der Verteidigung des Imperiums und der Beständigkeit der Freiwilligen, der Marine, des Militärs und der Luftstreitkräfte zu fördern“. Heute befasst sich die NRA ähnlich wie der DSB mit dem Scheibenschießen und ist im Vereinigten Königreich als gemeinnützige Organisation anerkannt. Im Jahr 2019 warf die Charity Commission for England and Wales der NRA jedoch vor, mit ihren Aktivitäten im Freizeitsport-Sektor gegen die Anforderungen der Gemeinnützigkeit verstoßen zu haben, und stellte sie unter verstärkte Kontrolle.

National Rifle Association (Reino Unido)

A National Rifle Association (NRA) fundada em 1859, é uma instituição de caridade registrada com uma "Carta Régia", sediada no mundialmente famoso Complexo de Bisley desde 1890. O objetivo declarado da NRA-UK é: promover e incentivar a pontaria em todos os domínios da rainha no interesse da defesa e na permanência das forças voluntárias e auxiliares, navais, militares e ar. A NRA é o órgão que governa os esportes de fuzil de cano cheio, espingarda (exceto pombo de argila) e de tiro com pistola no Reino Unido. História A National Rifle Association foi fundada em 1859, com base em Putney Heath & Wimbledon Common, 12 anos antes de seu homônimo americano mais conhecido. Em 1890, a rainha Victoria concedeu à NRA uma Carta Real de Incorporação. Seu objetivo inicial era arrecadar fundos para uma reunião nacional anual de rifles (agora conhecida como Reunião Imperial) "para a promoção da pontaria no interesse da Defesa do Reino e permanência das Forças Voluntárias, Marinha, Militar e Aérea". Em 1878, Edward Walford escreveu: "Essas reuniões anuais são atendidas pela elite da moda e sempre incluem um grande número de mulheres, que geralmente demonstram o maior interesse na prática de tiro dos vários concorrentes, seja pela honra de levar o Escudo Elcho, o Prêmio da Rainha ou o Príncipe de Gales, ou o escudo usado por nossas grandes Escolas Públicas, ou o Rifle Match anual entre as Casas dos Lordes e os Comuns". Em 2019, a Comissão de Caridade emitiu à National Rifle Association um conselho regulamentar formal depois de descobrir que a instituição de caridade agia fora de seus objetos de caridade, promovendo competições civis de tiros recreativos e outras atividades. Embora a ARN tenha feito progressos nesse sentido, em 2020 ela permaneceu sujeita a um exame minucioso pelo regulador devido à seriedade dessa questão. O National Shooting Centre O centro original estava localizado em Wimbledon, mas no final da década de 1880 a National Rifle Association começou a procurar um novo local. No início de 1888, parecia que o Cannock Chase deveria ser selecionado entre vários locais em consideração. No entanto, esse plano fracassou alguns meses depois, e os outros locais em potencial apresentaram seus casos novamente, com o jornal Middlesex Chronicle sugerindo que uma grande área em Staines que provavelmente seria o "The New Wimbledon". Eventualmente, porém, Bisley foi selecionado. Os principais campos usados hoje em Bisley são os estabelecidas originalmente em 1890 para dar suporte à tiros de fuzil de grosso calibre.

National Tennis Centre (United Kingdom)

The United Kingdom's National Tennis Centre at Roehampton in south-west London is the high-performance training facility of the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA). It was officially opened by Queen Elizabeth II on 29 March 2007. The Chief Executive of the centre is Scott Lloyd. The centre has 16 outdoor courts, covering all the Grand Slam surfaces, six indoor courts, a gymnasium and sports science and medical facilities. It also houses the administration of the LTA, which was previously based at the Queen's Club in West Kensington. Construction The National Tennis Centre was built in response to a 1999 review by the LTA of the reasons for its sustained failure to produce world class tennis players (the only British players of either sex to make the world top fifty in the 1990s were Tim Henman, who did not come up through the LTA system, and Greg Rusedski, who learned to play in Canada). It was inspired by the national tennis centres in the more successful tennis nations of France, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Switzerland and the United States and serves as a focus for high performance players and coaches. Previously the LTA's elite training facilities were at Queen's Club, but they were deemed inadequate for the purpose and Queen's is better known as a social club for wealthy Londoners rather than as a centre of sporting excellence. The LTA sold Queen's Club back to the club members. The south-west London location was chosen because it is close to the All England Club, home of the Wimbledon Championships, and many leading British players live in the area. The National Tennis Centre was designed by Hopkins Architects, the designers of Portcullis House. The centre was criticised in 2009 for financial waste and for not producing world class tennis players. The Sport Canopy won a British Construction Industry Awards in 2011. The centre closed in September 2014. Under the new model overseen by the LTA's chief executive, Michael Downey, the NTC was to remain the administrative headquarters of the organisation, but the elite players were only to use the 22 courts for occasional training camps.

National Tennis Centre

O National Tennis Centre do Reino Unido em Roehampton, no sudoeste de Londres, é o centro de treinamento de alto desempenho da Lawn Tennis Association (LTA). Foi inaugurado oficialmente pela rainha Elizabeth II em 29 de março de 2007. O chefe executivo do centro é Roger Draper. O centro tem 16 quadras ao ar livre, cobrindo todas as superfícies do Grand Slam, seis quadras cobertas, um ginásio e instalações médicas e científicas do esporte. Também abriga a administração da LTA, que anteriormente era baseada no Queen's Club [en] em West Kensington [en]. Construção O National Tennis Center foi construído em resposta a uma revisão de 1999 da LTA sobre as razões de seu fracasso contínuo em produzir tenistas de classe mundial (os únicos jogadores britânicos de ambos os sexos a chegar ao top 50 mundial na década de 1990 foram Tim Henman, que não surgiu pelo sistema LTA, e Greg Rusedski, que aprendeu a jogar no Canadá [en]). Foi inspirado pelos centros nacionais de tênis nas nações mais bem-sucedidas no esporte como: França, Bélgica, Espanha, Itália, Suíça e Estados Unidos e serve como foco para jogadores e treinadores de alto desempenho. Anteriormente, as instalações de treinamento de elite da LTA ficavam no Queen's Club, mas foram consideradas inadequadas para esse propósito e o Queen's é mais conhecido como um clube social para londrinos ricos do que como um centro de excelência esportiva. A LTA vendeu o Queen's Club de volta aos membros do clube. A localização no sudoeste de Londres foi escolhida porque fica perto do All England Club, sede do Torneio de Wimbledon, e muitos dos principais jogadores britânicos moram na área. O National Tennis Center foi projetado pela Hopkins Architects [en], os designers da Portcullis House. O "Sport Canopy" ganhou o British Construction Industry Awards [en] em 2011. O Centro foi criticado por não produzir tenistas de classe mundial e desperdício financeiro. O centro foi fechado em setembro de 2014. Sob o novo modelo supervisionado pelo executivo-chefe do LTA, Michael Downey, o NTC permaneceria como sede administrativa da organização, mas os jogadores de elite deveriam usar apenas as 22 quadras para treinamentos ocasionais.
