Again the Club was represented at the National meeting – Andy Meyers, Malcolm Brain, David White, Rachael Stubbins, Jim Howard, Linda Smallbone and Sara Marshall shot with mixed success. It was the weather I believe that was the problem. Andy Meyers shot for England and also won a silver trophy for the Life and Annual Members competition so well done to him. |
