Wilkinstown Target Shooting Club

Competing for Ireland in Finland...
Written by Mark Dennehy

All that training, all that sacrifice, all that hard work by Ray, Paul, Aisling and Matt (not to mention Peter in the UK) is coming to a head at the moment in a little town called Vierumäki in Heinola, Finland, where they are competing as the Irish Team (with Joe acting as manager - thanks Joe!) for the last of the London 2012 Olympic Quota Places. After training in RIAC last December and Intershoot just a week or two ago, and with Ray putting in scores in the 590s and Paul's PB only a point behind, we're hoping for great things from our shooters.

Raymond Kane

Paul O'Boyle

Aisling Miller

Peter Friend

You can follow them on the official 2012 European 10m Airgun Championships webpage and you can watch the scores go up live, shot by shot, on the Suis Ascor webpage. They're shooting this weekend, on Saturday at 0900 for Peter in Air Pistol, on Saturday at 1245 for Aisling in Air Rifle and on Sunday at 1100 for Ray and Paul in Air Rifle (all times in Irish time, not Finnish time).

Wish them luck!

Friday night training in WTSC

Friday nights are becoming a regular training time again on the range, with Matt, Mark, Paul, Ray and Ashling training away between 1800h and 2200h. The start of the revival of the club perhaps?

Very low numbers at the match this weekend because of the short notice; but a nice high standard nonetheless. Congratulations to Ray Kane of the DFST who won the air rifle event and to Caroline O'Brien of RRPC who won the air pistol event.

No photos after the match unfortunately, as the camera had... a small whoopsie :D
