Eight members of the East Grinstead Target Shooting Club took part in the 2018 National Small-bore Championships at Bisley between 11 and 17 August, and produced some excellent results in tricky wind and light conditions, plus a major downpour.

Congratulations to Tim and Jazz for winning their respective Classes! Marie also had an excellent score, both her and Jazz being in their first competitive FB shoot.
Despite the forecast the weather was fine with grey skies and light wind. Ideal for shooting but not for the actual scores which remained steady with only one person shooting above their average.
Full results will appear on the Eastbourne & District web page but here's a brief resume for EGTSC shooters.
Congratulations to:

Fifty One shooters from some 10 clubs in the Home Counties enjoyed excellent weather over the weekend at the East Grinstead Target Shooting Club’s Spring Open Meeting.
The session started with a briefing on the afternoons activities including:
Please use the booking system so that the Duty Officer and Coaches know who is coming and when. It makes it a lot easier for us to organise the evening.
Please read Booking System before attempting to book for the first time or if you've forgotten how it works.
You will need your MCH login details in order to make a booking.
