In the history of City of London Corporation Cup target shooting competition, which was inaugurated in 1910, East Grinstead Target Shooting Club is believed to be the only club ever to get all three teams through to the final.
East Grinstead Target Shooting Club hosted 70 competitors for the Spring Open Shoot over the weekend of 16/17 April. The Double Dewar match drew competitors from 23 clubs as far afield as Jersey and Wolverhamton. For once, the weather was fine and winds light but tricky for some. Winner of the Felbridge Bowl for highest score was A Cornbill of Southwick shooting in Class A, with a score of 778.
Well done to Ian Farnell, Geoff Davies, Tim Green, Peter Lewthwaite and Les Shilling who won their division in the National 50m Summer Comp. Also Tim Green, Joanna Parfitt and Mark Wiles managed to win Division 2 of the National 10M Air Rifle Summer competition.
