President’s

NotesJohn Mack

Having just returned from Perth and the ISSF National Championships, thesechampionships were a real revelation to me, the shooters organise themselvesand are never late for their squad! We had nine days of first class shooting andthe pressure is on for the final qualification round being held at Cecil Park inMarch for the Beijing Olympic team. Our upcoming juniors excelled withNicholas Kirley placing 2nd overall in the National Double Trap Championship,and young Anthony Sottosanti took overall in the National ISSF skeetChampionship. Adam Vella and Craig Trembath were too strong in theirrespective disciplines.As with all our national championships we have a small but dedicated bandof helpers and our nationals held in W.A. were no exception. The WesternAustralian Gun Club had the grounds looking perfect and put together with therecently installed new traps throwing good targets you have the recipe for a goodchampionship. Our shoot marshal Murray Alexander led the way with histireless efforts. My thanks to club President Christine Alexander and her clubmembers and to the West Australian Clay Target Association for all their help.Some members may have noticed the increase in media coverage that our sportis now attracting, this is in no small way attributed to Alex Smith a memberof Queensland Club Warwick, as a journalist, Alex has given his time andexpertise to work together with our chief executive officer in lifting our profilein the media.Anyone contemplating going to Ireland for the 8th World DTL had better hurryas of 25th January there were only 135 places left.

FRONT COVER:Scrubby Creek’s two-day shoot attracted over 100 shooters.Pictured are winners of this popular annual event.

ISSF – OCEANIA CHAMPIONSHIPS28th OCTOBER – 3rd NOVEMBER 2007

The Oceania Championships wereimportant in so many ways to somany competitors. For a Country togain a spot at the Olympic Games theymust win quota places. You can winquota places at World Cups, WorldChampionships and for Australia theOceania Championships. When a competitor wins a quota place, theywin it for their country, not for them-selves. A competitor must have anInternational Minimum QualifyingScore (MQS) before they are eligiblefor selection. A competitor then has togo through selection events to benominated to the AOC for them toapprove your nomination beforeyou can compete for Australia at theOlympics.

This Oceania was the last chance forAustralia to win quota places for the eventswhich we did not already have quotas andalso it was the last chance for competitors togain an MQS. Along with this it was the firstselection event for the Olympics. It was alsothe first opportunity for some shooters tocompete at an International event. So,

understandably there was a fair bit ofpressure and nerves on these competitors.A lot of these shooters have put their lifeon hold and are trying to give it their all togain selection and they need all the help,patience, practice and cooperation of othersto succeed. It is beneficial to all when thiscan be accomplished.

Lauryn Mark was the only shooter on Day 1 of Oceania to shoot anything lookinglike a respectful score to win Oceania and aquota for Australia. Her shooting outclassedanyone else shooting today, including com-petitors in Mens Skeet and Mens DoubleTrap. Well done Lauryn. In Double Trap,Russell Mark just scrapped home to win thequota available with the scores extremelylow by all the competitors. It was quite nerveracking at the end of the 2nd round withNew Zealand in the lead. Russell put in a bigeffort and showed his experience in the 3rdround to go into the Final 10 ahead of hisnext competitor and win Oceania and thequota for Australia.

The New Zealanders performed way belowwhat was expected of them for the Aust-ralians to win Oceania and the two quotasthat were available in the Mens Skeet event.George Barton first, with Paul Rahman andClive Barton shooting off for 2nd and 3rd.The scores were again low.

In the Womens Trap event we did not need towin a quota as Suzy Balogh had already won

Ewen Perie, Peter Goodwin NZ, Michael Diamond, Carrie Elton and Adam Vella

the quota at a World event. It was still anevent for Olympic selection and this was thefirst of what is going to be a real tassel to seewho gains the nomination. To win Oceaniathe final counts and this was won by Suzy.For the selections only the qualificationrounds count and this put Stacy Roiall onetarget ahead of Suzy.

Lucky we already had our 2 quotas in theMens Trap event or we would have missedout on one with Peter Goodwin from NewZealand putting in a big effort to finish 2nd.As Adam Vella and Michael Diamond hadalready won quotas at world events, boththe quotas went to New Zealand, with Fijimissing out. Brett Dunstan was the onlyAustralian competitor to gain an MQS atOceania and in this event.

The Juniors were only represented in theTrap event at Oceania. Some of these Juniorshave an MQS and are eligible for selectionbut were chosen in the Junior event withtheir scores to count towards selection.Again the scores were low compared to theirbest but it was another event for them togain experience.

I was please to meet Carrie Elton and to haveher in attendance at Oceania. I have left outscores from this article but would really likeeveryone to check out www.ausshooting.orgfor lots of interesting information.

FROM THE CEO

Taipan Shield 2007Unfortunately, there were only two

team nominations, under the conditionsof entry there must be a minimum ofthree team nominations to constitute

a competition.

Therefore, the competition could notbe conducted.

On Sunday the 13th of January 2008, Mount Isa Clay TargetGun Club conducted its first monthly Club Competition Shootfor the year at its facilities at Kalkadoon Park, Mount Isa. 18 Shooters attended from Mount Isa and took part in the Club Shoot– Due to the weather conditions from the previous days experiencedin and between Normanton and Karumba the expected shooters fromthose Clubs were unable to attend due to flooding. Two (2) newshooters who had attended at our Club Introduction and CoachingWeekend in October returned to the Club and also took part in theCompetition.

The day was hot with high glare and steady 10 knot winds general-ly from the south with wind gusting at time over 25 knots. Thisgusty wind made shooting challenging, as targets would act unpre-dictably rising almost vertically hanging in the breeze or elsedropping groundwards then rising very quickly, usually at the timeof squeezing trigger.

The results of our Club Competition this Sunday 13 January 2008shoot are as follows: Event 1 50 Target Skeet Prizes: A, B and CGrades. A Grade Mick McGill 47/50, B Grade Neil Sinclair 42/50,C Grade Chris Wilson 46/50. Event 2 25 Target Down the LineHandicap Eye-opener: Prizes: First, Second, Third, First Rod Cusack24/25, Second Neil Sinclair 40/43, Third Chris Wilson 39/43.

By the time this message reaches you we will be well into the2008 calendar of local, regional, state and National eventsaround Australia.

I’ve just returned from Perth where the Western Australian GunClub hosted the Olympic Discipline Nationals. What a fantasticfacility! The clubhouse and grounds were the perfect venue forsuch a prestigious event in an Olympic Year. Thanks to ACTAPresident John Mack and Executive Members Elaine Forward(Tournament Director), Robert Fox, Vince Mollica and GeoffFaulkes who attended the event and provided welcome assist-ance. I add my thanks to those of the President to all of theWestern Australian volunteers. There will be a full report aboutthe championships in the next CTSN.

The final nominations for our Olympic representatives will bemade after the Australia Cup in Sydney from 7th to 9th March.I wish all the contenders the best of luck.

In Wagga Wagga preparations are now on in earnest for theTrap Nationals, followed by the Sporting and Skeet Nationals.Although I knew there would be some compliance hoops tojump through in order to present the Trap Nationals, I’ve beensurprised by just how many hoops and the level of consultationand approval processes required in NSW in order to provide theannual ACTA Trader’s Fair in conjunction with the event.

To build on the progress that has been made on the NationalGrounds in recent years, I have been working closely withWagga Wagga City Council to ensure the ACTA has a sustain-able future and the ability to further develop the NationalGrounds to be the very best for our members. I should have lotsto report by the time the AGM comes around at the end ofMarch.

As previously mentioned, a Master Plan for the NationalGrounds will be ready for display at each of the NationalChampionships, and your input will be important.

In closing, I offer congratulations to Russell Mark who has beenappointed to the AISL Board for two years. Russell’s appoint-ment not only gives a voice for clay target shooting, buthis high profile and enthusiasm as an ambassador will assistus in raising awareness and enthusiasm for our sport, andthe shooting sports as a whole - to governments, media and thegeneral public.

AUSTRALIA CUPDECEMBER 2007

This was the 2nd Selection competition for the Olympics,with a bonus prize on for any shooter shooting anAutomatic Nomination Score (ANS). Each discipline hasan ANS. Mens Trap – 123, Mens Skeet – 124, Mens DoubleTrap – 144, Womens Trap – 73 and Womens Skeet 74. Anycompetitor who can qualify for the Olympics that shoots anANS is nominated for the Olympic Team.Michael Diamond looked very close in achieving an ANS in the MensTrap event, missing by a target.

Again SISC was used for this selection match, Melbourne seems to behaving a break from major events this year. I would like to thank theAustralian Sports Commission, Australian Olympic Committee andthe Australian Commonwealth Games Association for their supportof this competition.

Anyone can compete at the Australia Cup events, even when it is aselection match. We encourage as many competitors as possible, sokeep an eye on the AISL website for dates and nomination details –www.ausshooting.org. The next event is in March 2008, again inSydney.

Again as in other selection competitions the score (qualification)rounds count towards selection but the final counts for the winner ofthe Australia Cup 4 event. In other words the final does not count forthe selection to the Olympics. In the Double Trap event Craig

Trembath shot 44 46 45 = 135 + 46 to win the event. Russell Mark 4643 44 = 133 + 45 2nd and Nicholas Kirley 42 44 45 = 131 + 44 3rd.

In the Womens Skeet event, Lauryn Mark shot very consistently with23 23 23 = 69 + 22 + 9 to gain 1st position, with Natalia Rahmanshooting 22 24 20 = 66 and a good final of 25 + 8 to finish in 2nd.Zita Dettori came 3rd shooting 21 24 19 = 64 + 24. George Bartonproved far to strong in the Mens Skeet event shooting 25 23 25 2425 = 122 + 24. Clive Barton came 2nd with 23 24 22 25 23 = 117 +24 and Anthony Sottosanti 3rd 22 23 25 23 24 = 117 + 22.

As stated earlier, Michael Diamond shot very well with his score of24 25 25 24 24 = 122 + 24. Adam Vella shot well in the final to finish 2nd with 23 24 24 21 23 = 115 + 24 and Craig Henwood 3rdwith 23 23 24 24 25 = 119 + 19. All shooters shot well in the finalto make it very interesting.

The 3rd selection competition is the national event at the ACTANationals in Perth, January, 2008. I would imagine that all Olympiccontenders will be in Perth, along with other shooters wanting toshoot a PQS score that may qualify them for a possible overseasevent. And I do hope we have people just wanting to enjoy their sportand catch up with friends.

Thanks to those that lent me a hand at this event, I did appreciatethe help.

Northern Zone Coaching Weekendwith Graeme Boyd

Atherton Tablelands Gun ClubTwenty shooters from five gun clubs attended the coachingweekend in picturesque Atherton. After an introductorytalk from “Super Coach” Boyd the AA and A grade Downthe Line shooters shot a round of targets, which wascaptured on video. B and C graders then hit the tracks toshoot their round, which was also recorded on video. Backto the school room to view the video tape and discuss stylesand technique. Having the opportunity to view yourselfshooting is very helpful in illustrating and identifyingerrors, and goes a long way to making positive changes inshooting technique. Boydie conducted some one-on-one coaching after lunch, and sixpeople began Level One Coaching courses. Some of the shooterspartook in a few rounds of Skeet, and after the evening meal a general discussion and Question and Answer session took placeamongst all in attendance.

On Sunday morning Graeme addressed the shooters and did anoverview of what had taken place the day before. The shootersparticipated in some Miss-and-Go-Back shooting, where theshooter is challenged to shoot a predetermined number of targetswithout missing, and an unsuccessful attempt means they have tostart from the beginning again. The new Level One Coaches didsome coaching with some of the shooters and reported back toGraeme with their findings and he discussed their coachingliterature with them. After lunch the shooters returned to thetracks and tried out what they had learned.

The Northern Zone QCTA would like to thank the AthertonTablelands Gun Club for the venue and looking after everyone’smeals and refreshment requirements and providing copiousamounts of country hospitality. A special thank you must goto Graeme Boyd for all of his insight and expertise. This is the seventh year that Graeme has run coaching clinics for theNorthern Zone, and we appreciate any opportunity to benefitfrom his vast experience and knowledge. We hope that everyonein attendance took something of value away with them afterthe weekend, as I’m sure all would have.

Renamedthe “Rich River Classic Annual Shoot” and shot on the dayafter Boxing Day, allowing family’s more time together,before driving, in some cases, a large distance to apremium shooting event.Kind weather, warm and clear with the gentlest of breezes,Excellent trophy’s, magnificent ground preparation, thanks tothe club’s caretaker groundsman “Allan”, and the knowledgethat six traps would be used, ensuring the shoot would run ontime, was enough to attract a full fifteen squads of competitors.

90 plus shooters, and in a lot of cases, also their families,require a lot of food and drink, and Dot Roberts and her helpersfrom the ladies committee, plus some helpers from other clubs,were up to the task, providing an endless supply of nutritionthroughout the day. Amongst the competitors were shootersfrom WA, NSW, Tasmania, and even a shooter from Englandhere to try out his skill.

Amongst such tough competition it was pleasing to seeVictorian shooters dominate all events, with Echuca claimingthe three Overall Winner sashes, and Numurkah/Sheppartonmember, Trevor Thomas, claiming 1st in the Handicap event.Trevor still in B grade had an excellent day, winning grade 1st’s,the Handicap, and the B grade High Gun, ensuring him a veryshort stay in B grade.

The Overall Winners were event one the Points Score SteveAtkins (Echuca) on 156/156, taking the sash and AA grade 1st,event two the Single Barrel Rob Viney (Echuca) 44/44, takingthe sash and AA 1st, event four the Double Barrel again Echuca

member Rob Viney shooting superbly, taking the OA and 1st inAA with an unbeaten 62/62 score.

The high gun winners taken over the full program, were, NeilCracknell, a Marybourgh member, dropping only three points forthe day giving him an unbeatable 147/150 score which gavehim the Overall and A grade, High Gun Sash and Trophy, wellshot Neil!

January Club Shoot The January 2008 shoot at Echuca Clay Target Club attract-ed seven squads of competitors to battle for places in thefour event program on for the day. Echuca membersshone, winning every event, except for the Points Score,which was taken out by a visiting shooter, Robert Brodin,from the Tottenham Gun Club in New South Wales, beingthe only shooter on a clean 60/60 score.Shoot off’s were required in all events to decide winners, exceptfor the Points Score, with the Double Barrel Championship goingto almost 100 targets. Local member, Steve Atkins, survived allothers to collect Overall & AA grade 1st on a good score of97/97. And when you consider the weather conditions, althoughclear and a mild 30 degrees, the wind was an issue, with stronggust’s shifting the targets, mainly down, the days score’s wereexcellent.

The Handicap event needed only nine targets to decide betweenfirst and second. Echuca members Craig Scott and Ian Gebhardtshooting it out, with Ian dropping his 29th target giving firstplace to Craig on a 29/29 score. Craig Scott shooting well allday is the first Echuca member to move back on his handicapmark for the new year of 2008.

Psychological Skills for Shooting by Michael Kruger-Davis

MENTAL REHEARSALI recently attended a junior development camp at Newcastle-LakeMacquarie Clay Target Club, hosted by the club for junior shootersfrom the Northern zone. What impressed me, apart from the welcomeI received or the preparation for the camp by the organisers, was thecommitment and enthusiasm of the juniors who were participating.

One of the sessions involved mental rehearsal. For the benefit of thejuniors who were there and other readers, I will reexamine mentalrehearsal.

Mental rehearsal is defined by John Syer and Christopher Connolly,Sporting Body, Sporting Mind: an Athlete’s Guide to Mental Training,as the process of imagining yourself performing a specific movementor skill.

According to Graham Winter and Cathy Martin, A Practical Guide forSport Psychology, mental rehearsal is a strategy that involvesimagery to help solve problems and to develop automatic and confi-dent performances. Whilst it can be used with team sports, it is inindividual sports, such as archery, shooting, diving, gymnastics, etc,where a competitors performance is a lot more controllable andtherefore predictable, where it has the greatest application. Mentalrehearsal centres around the accurate and composed execution ofskills.

Mental rehearsal allows athletes to actively plan and evaluate theirperformance at training and in competition. It gives you an oppor-tunity to examine your weaknesses and plan ways to improve onthem. Mental rehearsal, according to Winter and Martin;

• Reinforces and strengthen existing skills• Speeds up the learning of new skills and concepts “problem skills”• Improves mind-body reflexes• Increases self awareness and awareness of important clues• Improves concentration and confidence• Decreases anxiety

Mental rehearsal is not just wishful thinking: it must be used incombination with other training and competition strategies, such asgoal setting, visualization, relaxation, etc.

How can mental rehearsal be incorporated in to training sessions?

1. Establishing your goals: decide what you are going to work on ina particular training session. Your goals should be more than justthe skills you are working on, but also the mental and emotionalaspects, such as concentration.

2. Creating the scene: closing your eyes and taking a couple of deepbreaths, let you muscles go loose and relaxed. Winter and Martincontinue by stating that you should create in your mind thesequence you want to perfect. You need to be as vivid as youpossibly can be and in as much detail as you can: you should hear,see, feel, smell, touch and even taste the situation you are tryingto create. Be aware of the physical surroundings: what the layoutlooks like, the background, weather, etc.

3. Automatic mental rehearsal. You should now be visualizing atnormal speed, seeing and feeling yourself performing the skill ortechnique smoothly and accurately. Do this over and over until itfeels comfortable.

4. Reviewing your skills. After the training session it is important toevaluate how the session went, especially asking did you practicethe skills you had planned, and what improvements can you makefor the next session.

Mental rehearsal can also be used during the competition. Winter andMartin outline the following;

Spend about five minutes relaxing, letting you muscles go loose andyour mind go calm. Begin by creating the scene in which you will becompeting as vividly and in as much details as you can. Picture inyour mind . . . what you are wearing . . . who else is there withyou . . . feel the atmosphere around you . . . sense the excitement.

Go over the performance in your mind, mentally rehearse yourgoals/strategies/particular skills or techniques. The mind cant tellthe difference between what is real and what is imagined, so it canbe convinced through visualization and mental rehearsal that youhave already done the shot. Therefore there is no need to feel anxious or fearful, and because there is no self-doubt it will be easyto hit the target.

Use The Black Box Technique to deal with distractions before andduring the competition. Visualise yourself handling all situations ina clam, focused, confident and composed way.

Important points to remember for effective mental rehearsal.

• Always make your mental rehearsals as real and as vivid aspossible, so your mind and body will respond most effectively tothe rehearsals.

• Except when initially going over a new skill of technique, alwaysdo your rehearsals at normal speed.

• Spend at least i5 minutes four or fives per week to practice mental rehearsals because they need to be practiced to get themright also.

• Mental rehearsal is not a thinking exercise. Imagine as much aspossible to recreate a realistic impression in your mind.

Whilst mental rehearsal can be effectively used for all shootingdisciplines it is most useful for skeet and sporting because the targetpath is known to the shooter before it is called for. Therefore duringcompetitions shooters can and should mentally rehearse themselvesshooting the target as they position themselves on the pad. Becausein their mind they have already shot the target, they can keep the selftalk down and limit self doubt. Because your mind already believesthat the target has been shot, then it should let you perform the task(for real) with ease and no fear. It is important once the shot hasbeen fired and the target has been hit to again rehearse in your mindwhat you have just successfully done, (that is, relive that shot againin your mind), before you walk off the mark. This will reinforcesuccess.

Mental rehearsal should be an important part of your mental skillsprogram. It is very useful in helping the learning of a new skill ortechnique and it is also useful when recovering from an injury orafter a long lapse in competition. It is also an important tool forlimiting anxiety and improving concentration and focus.

It’s Your

Call By Bill McCarthy

No. 27

VALE

You are the Referee of a squad wherein a shooter has anapparent malfunction. He raises his hand and you walk tohis side. You take his gun from him and inspect it andthen test fire it. Is this correct?

IT’S YOUR CALLNo it is not correct procedure. GRTS 14 is specific in that itsays that the Referee does Not test fire the gun. In fact the gunremains in the shooters hands during the whole process.

In the event of a malfunction, GRTS 14 requires that a Refereeinspect the gun for proper closure and check the situation of thesafety catch. He then asks the shooter to put the gun on his(the shooter’s) shoulder and test fire the gun once only. Afterthat procedure has been completed, the Referee will thenadjudicate on the malfunction.

When we look closely at GRTS 14 it clearly says that the gun istest fired “once only”. The shooter who continues to pull the

trigger a multiple of times may well be doing himself a disfavour as the gun may discharge on the second or third pull.Therefore, Referees should emphasis to the shooter that he orshe should test fire “once only”. Moreover, it highlights a needshooters should make themselves aware of the correct procedurelaid down for the adjudication of misfires and malfunctions sothat they are not disadvantaged in any way.

No! I didn’t forget the Mechanical Trigger situation.

It is important that the shooter inform the Referee if the gunhas mechanical trigger operation, i.e. that the firing mechanismis not inertia operated. In this case, the gun will almostcertainly discharge the second barrel which has proved nothing.Therefore, the decision on the malfunction of the first barrel willbe up to the judgement of the Referee by inspection of the gunand the state of the cartridge in the first barrel. If there arevisible signs that the primer has been hit it would seem to beeasy. However, should there be no physical evidence that thecartridge has been subjected to normal firing, pin action it isnot necessarily a “Lost target” (freezing). It may be that the firstbarrel does have a fault hence here is a need to furtherinvestigate with the gun unloaded. Consultation with the shooterabout firing the mechanism with or without snap caps of emptyshells must be considered.

MAUREEN O’MEARAIt is with deep regret that we advise of the passing on 24 December2007 of our honorary life member and long serving club shoot sec-retary and treasurer, Maureen O’Meara, at the age of 80 years.Maureen held management positions within the Kyneton Gun Clubcontinuously since early 1975 (shortly after the club’s inception)almost 33 years of dedicated service.

Our sincere sympathy is extended to her husband Ken, childrenKaren, Ross and Tim, and their extended families.

Maureen, we will miss you.

This was the 2nd year that this event has been held, bothtimes at the SISC. This venue was chosen so that all ISSFevents could be at the one complex, with Rifle and Pistolevents also being contested. The Youth Nationals has freenominations for all Australian competitors with different agecategories. The event gives those shooters that have shot ISSFmore competition and a chance for others to give it a try. Thethree different age categories of 12 – 16 years, 17 – 20 yearsand 21 – 25 years, gives more competitors the opportunity tocompete closer to their age rather than normally everyonebeing a Junior which is under 21. The under 25 age gives alook at the possibility of development options.With National Coach Valeriey Tomekin and Retired National CoachGreg Chan in attendance it was such a great opportunity for ourYouth to gain knowledge and interest in ISSF Shooting. For some thiswas their very first time in trying ISSF, so having Coaches of thiscalibre in attendance was really a great help to these shooters. Thesetwo guys along with Nick Sanders, who is a Sports Scientists whoworks with AISL put a huge effort into making this a successfulevent. Thanks must also go to Beretta Australia for their generoussponsorship of this event.

In the Double Trap event in the 12 – 16 years Russell McCloy wassuccessful with Joshua Collard 2nd and Kenneth Marshall 3rd. Firstin the 17 – 20 was Nicholas Kirley, Rowan Lendon 2nd and TimBourke 3rd. 21 – 25 years Blair Signorotto 1st David Cross 2nd andTodd Malone 3rd. A final was held for the top 6 over any age andfinishing in 1st was Nicholas Kirley, Blair Signorotto 2nd and RowanLendon 3rd. These 3 shooters are shooting in the selections for theOlympics and all three are very keen and dedicated athletes who willrepresent well into the future in our sport.

With Double Trap finishing early on the Friday it gave an oppor-tunity for Trap and Skeet practice and for the Coaches to give

assistance to whoever asked. They were kept busy which was reallygreat to see so many wanting to learn.

Unfortunately we had only 4 Skeet shooters competing. Laura Colestravelled from Western Australia to compete which was so great andstayed on for the week so that she could compete at the AustralianCup the next week. It was very sensible for her to take this oppor-tunity to learn and compete and shows how keen some of theseJuniors really are at their sport. Anthony Sottosanti shot well to finish 1st overall, Mathew Maloney 2nd and Mitchell Onley 3rd.

I thought it was really great to have 2 full squads of women shooters and girls like Kelly Coogan travelling all the way fromCairns was another big effort and showed again that we have someJuniors really wanting to have a go and learn and develop in theOlympic disciplines of shooting. Anna Shedrina was the winner ofthe Womens Trap event, Steph Tigani 2nd and Simone Tigani 3rd.

In the Mens Trap event we had the most competitors and of coursewith that the most varied of experience and age. It was great to seesome of our well known DTL shooters having ago and I do hope wesee you again. Overall 1st Todd Malone, 2nd Anthony Rullo and 3rdClayton Anderson. 12 – 16 years 1st Andrew Smith 2nd, MichaelMcNabb 3rd Nazim Ali. 17 – 20 years 1st Anthony Rullo, 2ndBrendan Burgess and 3rd Daniel Allam. 21 – 25 years 1st ToddMalone 2nd Clayton Anderson and 3rd Marcel Tigani.

Thanks to Carrie Elton for being in attendance during part of theYouth Nationals and for the help of Rowena from the ACTA office.Frank Auditore also lent a hand. I think both Rowena and Franklearnt more about ISSF shooting which will help them in the future.

Thanks to the Australian Sports Commission, Australian OlympicCommittee and the Australian Commonwealth Games Association for their support. Gleniss Lawrence
