RESULTS: During the past season we were able to field a teams in the Worcester leagues plus teams in the Midland .22 light weight sporting rifle league and teams in the fullbore/centre fire rifle leagues. Interest in the Light weight sporting rifle and the Full bore carbine shooting continues to be on the increase with three teams entered in both the 09-10 sporting and centre fire leagues. Last years successes included Silver medals for the B team in Midland lightweight sporting Division Ten and number of individuals in other postal competitions . In total we entered two teams in both the lightweight sporting rifle and fullbore Gallery rifle leagues in the winter 2008-09 competitions and three teams in each in the 09 Summer leagues. We are hoping for more success in the forthcoming winter season with teams in these and also the bench rest leagues already progressing well.
