I am delighted to announce the names of those selected for the Great Britain Veterans Rifle Team Squad, from which the Team to compete in the 2024 World Championships will be selected.

I received almost 50 applications for the Team and following training weekends over the past two years, this has now been reduced to the 25 persons below. Following a recce tour to the South Africa Championships in March 2023 the Squad will be reduced to the final Team.

I am most grateful for the support, interest and encouragement shown by those I was not able to select, and I wish them well in the future.
