Imperial Meeting Prize List CD

The Imperial Meeting Prize List CD is being replicated at the moment and will be posted out early in the New Year.

GB Team to Canada 2013

Unfortunately the following invitation was omitted from the recent NRA Journal.

I am delighted to have been asked to Captain the GB Rifle Team to Canada in 2013. Chris Hockley will be my Vice-Captain, Richard Jeens Adjutant, and Nick Tremlett will lead the coaching team.

It will be a short, unaccompanied tour to shoot the DCRA Meeting only. This is so that we do not exclude potential applicants by time away from family or work and it should help considerably in keeping the costs down. The expected dates are 13 – 26 August 2013.

The closing date for applications is the end of the Imperial Meeting 2012, however early applications would be appreciated, with the final team announced September 2012. I am looking to take a strong team for a successful and enjoyable tour with a good mix of new and old caps.

Those who relish this challenge please apply to me by e-mail at fitzp999@aol.com with the following information: name, e-mail address and telephone number. I will then send you an application form.
