At the meeting of the Shooting Council on 25th March 2023, two changes to NSRA Rules and Regulations were agreed, and they are effective from 1st April 2023.
The changes only affect Rules 3.5.1 and 3.5.2, which deal with the age qualifications for competing as juniors and veterans.
Following the recent resignation of John Lloyd, on Saturday 25th March the Shooting Council elected Mike Arnstein as Chairman of the Association. The appointment was effective immediately.
At the time Mike was the Association's Vice-Chairman and he has relinquished this post. In his place the Council appointed Matt Guille, who was already a Board Member. This appointment as Vice-Chairman also takes immediate effect.
Seonaid sailed through the qualifying rounds at the European Shooting Confederation’s European Championships in Tallinn, Estonia, to position herself at the top of the leader boards heading into the medal matches.
She led the pack through the medal qualifier match, before an extremely tense Gold medal match saw Norway’s Jeanette Duestad claim victory by a narrow margin.
BOAG was a hugely successful event, we'll be writing up a summary of the event in the next edition of On Target, but for now, a full image gallery is available here.
