The interassociation A Grade and C Grade rep matches were held at the club yesterday.  Top Brooklyn honours in the A Grade match went to Erin Little with 194.5, and Anna Hooper recorded the best score in the C Grade match with a very impressive 195.10.  Full results will be available in September.

The highest scores in D Grade were shot by Chris Lockery 98.3, Jack Day 91.2 (a new PB), Carl Whiteheard 91.2, Aiden D’Souza 91.1 and Callum Austin 90.2.  Mike Williams scored yet another PB (89.1).  Anna Hooper led C Grade with 99.6 (an equal PB) ahead of Amalamo Simi with another impressive score of 98.2 and Inge Little with 96.3.  Top shot in B Grade this week was Mark Riley with 99.4, David Grain led A Grade with 99.5, and Meredith Ackrill had the best score in Master Grade with 99.7.

Congratulations to Erin Little on her 2nd placing in B Grade at the Wairarapa Open Champs with a score of 292.13.

Full results from the Wellington v Christchurch junior and women’s matches are now available. Unfortunately Wellington suffered a loss in each of these matches, but only by a matter of 11 inners in the women’s match.  It doesn’t get much closer than that.

Have you checked out the ladder competition recently?  Whoever scores the best competition card from each set of pairs on the ladder gains 2 points and moves up to challenge another shooter the following week.  We are now about halfway through the season and Mark Riley is leading with 15 points, followed by a flurry of shooters on 14 points (Anna Hooper, Chris Lockery, Evan Little and Inge Little).

Our club is responsible for running the Wellington Open Champs for three hours from 11am until 2pm on Saturday 14 July, and we need as many members as possible to help out with tasks such as target prep and changing, marking, check marking, kitchen duties, etc.  It would be great if everyone also competed in the event.  The Executive have also asked if anyone would be interested in running the kitchen on the Saturday.  If you (or another family member) are able to undertake this very important task, please contact the WSRA Secretary, Beverley Newton – as soon as possible.  The Association also requires 23 plates of cakes or biscuits to be supplied from each club for sale – please let me know if you are able to provide a plate.

You will have received the email regarding the upcoming working bee from the Association secretary yesterday.  As noted, many hands make light work and if everyone turns up and does a bit, the tasks will be accomplished quicker.
