I am greatly honoured to have been elected by the NRA Council as Captain of the GB Veterans Rifle Team to compete in the next World Championships to be contested in South Africa in 2023. To qualify as a Veteran one will need to be 60 on or before the day of the first Individual World Championship Match.

David Richards and Stephen Penrose have graciously accepted my invitations to be Vice-Captain and Adjutant respectively.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic it is too early to be prescriptive about numbers, plans and timetables. The dates for the SABU and World Championships in 2023 have not yet been fixed officially, but are likely to be at the end of March, possibly running from Thursday 16th March to Saturday 1st April.

If you are interested in selection, could you please drop me an email at  charles.brooks@penningtonslaw.com  – before the end of September 2020. Requests for further information will follow after receiving your application. We will want to run a number of selection and training days, hopefully starting in the Spring of 2021.

Please feel free to email or speak to me if you have any questions.

 

Charles Brooks
