2 AUSTRALIAN CLAY TARGET SHOOTING NEWS – JUNE 2016

DTL NATIONALSBefore I start this very positive column I would like to apologise about the dust at the Nationals. We have had months of groundworks earlier this year and large events leading up to the Nationals (including over 540 vans on the grounds the fortnight prior) The grounds currently has access to a limited water supply and water restrictions. All of these circumstances made for a dusty outlook but those speeding towards the practice layouts didn’t help much either. We are looking at ways to

improve the situation in the future.

Otherwise I hope all competitors enjoyed the Nationals as much asI did. I believe the performances of three shooters, Pat Guida winning the Gold Australia for the High Gun, Craig Kelly taking two Silver Australia’s home and Emma Cox shooting 749-750 to be the highest qualifier in the Glenn Cup and World Championship teams stood out above all others.

The other team members selected for the forthcoming DTL World Championships and the Glenn Cup for 2017 along with all other National Title winners are also to be congratulated. The Ladies Mackintosh Team of Emma Cox, Tracey Barton and Laura Wooley shooting the teams score clean with 900-900 was another highlight. There were far too many other exceptional performances to mention here and congratulations go to you all.

The Opening ceremony provided quite a spectacle with all State teams now presented beautifully and wearing their State colours with pride. The initiative suggested by Team manager Matt Patmore, of having the successful Glenn Cup team march in full uniform gave those present a look at how the Association now present your teams for international competitions and I thank the Team members both for bringing home the Cup and for so proudly joining in as part of the opening ceremony. You will see more of this in the future as we endeavour to lift the level of prestige attached to our representative teams.

The cash prizemoney may be reviewed upwards next year as will the popular lucky draws at presentations. I think the most popular win was without doubt Craig Fitzgerald and he featured twice when he was not on the grounds when drawn and got the prize for the most popular loss also. Well done Craig and congratulations to those drawn who were present and collected the $500 cash prizes. The evening entertainment at the BBQ area was also great. The charity chosen for the BBQ donations was represented by Rob Viney and on his behalf I thank all who made donations to this worthy cause.

Traps, targets and target presentation were not commented on much and I believe they were up there with the best. The Office staff, Shoot Marshalls and Tournament Director helped us finish on time each day and this is great for our sponsors to have large crowds present each evening, giving them the best possible exposure. We have made changes to help achieve this outcome and I can assure you all, this is the plan ongoing.

Next year should be bigger and better with bigger prizemoney a possibility,

more layouts being constructed and more entertainment. I thank all our workers and our sponsors of the event.

I enjoyed the Trap Nationals and now look forward to the skeet.

AGMThe largest attendance in many years at an AGM (61 clubs) was no doubt prompted by the proposal for a new Constitution, although no questions were raised following the meeting. I have been disappointed in the bad publicity received on the proposed draft, before we were given the chance to get the State input at the forums held. The draft was exactly that, a draft, and now following input from States and forums the document has been revised.

A timeframe as follows has been put in place.

3rd April – 2nd draft provided to Executive.

29th April – Receive Executive Input on 2nd draft.

19th June – Revised 3rd draft after Executive input goes to full Executive meeting.

29th July – 4th draft after Executive meeting consideration be provided to States and via them, clubs for further input.

30th September – Receive input from clubs and States via States.

October date TBA – Executive approve final document to present to 2017 AGM.

I hope this timeframe is acceptable as we received much criticism for what was perceived as too short a timeframe being adopted last year.

HALL OF FAMEA great night saw one of our greatest contemporary shots in Darryn Nicholls and a Lady from a completely different era, Pam Moloney nee Coxon, inducted. Congratulations to them both and all the other award winners on the night. Thanks to Sue Vesperman for the presentation of the room for the evening.

EXECUTIVE MEETINGA decision has been made to ask for Shooting Australia’s support for the Association to again administer our coaching accreditation and re-accreditation programs. We believe that we are quite capable of administering these programs efficiently and effectively and aim to shorten timeframes and improve delivery.

A decision has been made to advertise for ISSF shooter input via State Associations to the ACTA for the compilation of a selection policy more acceptable to our ISSF shooters and the Association generally. This will be presented to Shooting Australia as a recommendation from the Association when the post Rio review is conducted.

A decision has been made to put forward to the International Clay Target Shooting Federation a proposal to align the ages for veterans in the Mackintosh competition with the ages used in the World DTL event. We will also be requesting that the ages for all age based sections be as at the 1st of January in the year of competition as is the World DTL criteria.

Until next month,

Robert Nugent

President’s Notes


At a meeting of the ACTA Executive in April it was decided to call for submissions for changes to the Shooting Australia selection policies. This is an opportunity to provide options for consideration when Shooting Australia review their policies after the 2016 Olympic games. The ACTA was advised of the decision of Shooting Australia in Canberra in September 2015. The Australian Institute of Sport were at the meeting and agreed to assist in the review. Now is the time to provide submissions through to your State for advancement to the ACTA. The article and details is on page 64 under ACTA news.

The National Trap Championship was a fantastic event with a great atmosphere and spirit from the layout to the Club house.

Unfortunately we had a couple of sour notes to the event that the general membership need to understand. All those who are next to you on the layouts and in the Club do not necessarily have the same ethics. One of our Major sponsors Winchester had three advertising signs removed from the compound fence. These are one off articles produced for the 150 year celebration of the company. Make no mistake they are Stolen. It is a sad day when we cannot put flags out to promote the sport and our sponsors. If you see these “souvenirs” take care, the people that have them are not ethical.

There was another case of a truck being “milked” of fuel and had Tools boxes raided. This could necessitate further security being employed at a cost to competitors, again the ACTA would rather put the money into something for those nominated, but then this appears to be someone amongst us. What a Sad way to finish. I understand there have been instances of dishonesty at Clubs regarding prizes taken that were not the persons to take.

Moving on to more enjoyable topics and they are always advancing the ACTA as a National organisation. Over the next three months there will be a series of articles to do with a new Constitution. These articles will seek to explain the reasons and the changes that are being proposed. The major consensus is that the majority agree to move to a company limited by guarantee. Any registered shooter is allowed to attend the AGM, Clubs will retain the right to vote at the AGM. We are also looking at removing much of the Legal “jargon” to simplify the document for easier understanding.

Congratulations to all of those winners and placegetters at the National Trap Championships, there can never be enough accolades for those who reach the pinnacle of their sport, winning a National Championship is one of those only achieved by shooters with talent and a work ethic to match. To those who made the Mackintosh Teams, congratulations, and those who will represent the ACTA in Ireland in the World DTL Championships, congratulations also, getting there is the first accomplishment, being at your best for the event is the next. Good Luck to everyone selected and to those who are choosing to go to the event, you are also representatives of the ACTA.

The Skeet Championships will commence on the 21st of May, another very strong event judging by the entries so far. With a Glenn Cup and World Skeet team to be selected we expect another strong Championship.

Executive Officer’s Report

CLOSING DATE FOR JULY CTSN:ADVERTISING AND EDITORIAL

STRICTLY MAY 20

To all of our sponsors, both Trap and Skeet on behalf of the shooters thanks again for your continued support, the provision of sponsor prizes plus cash prizes ensures the winners are rewarded for their wins. The Skeet Championships will also feature Cash lucky draws at the Presentations that were a feature of the Trap Championships.

Soil testing has been completed in preparation for the possible building of a new clubhouse and offices. The results of those tests are now available with the building Sub-committee to determine the options available for making a recommendation to the Executive.

Works continue on the National ground with a new skeet layout now in operation for the Skeet Championships. The layout has been completed to ensure it is the same as the existing layouts with all shooting pads completed and fences installed. We are now in the process of installing two ball traps on the ground in front and to the side of layout two and four, whilst two more trap houses will be installed between layout 15 - 16 on the fence line between the ACTA ground and our Neighbour. We will be relocating the fence to accommodate this installation with the other being installed then as the twentieth trap on our neighbours land. It goes without saying that without the ongoing support and co-operation from Mr. Rod Brown this would not be possible. We thank Rod for his support over many years and look forward to his continued support in the future. Rod has given the ACTA an undertaking we will be given first option to buy the land that we are currently using .

Further levelling at the ground has been possible through Don Power and his local contacts. Don has arranged additional “fill” from local excavators with the only cost being machinery to level the fill. Without Don’s local building knowledge this would have been a very expensive exercise. With a wet winter we believe we can have a ground covered by grass by the end of September 2016. We are also investigating the de-silting of a current dam in the far left hand corner of the ground, this would enable us to have a supply of water to further water the usable areas of the ground.

We have now started preliminary work on the 2018 World Championships with dates, times, venue, accommodation, travel options all to be included on a brochure to be distributed in Ireland and added to the a “World DTL 2018” page on the website. We are leaving nothing to chance as we prepare to host the event.

The ground will boast 20 DTL Traps in 2017 allowing more participants for the Nationals and the World event.

We have had preliminary talks with all current sponsors in relation to the event, with all of our current sponsors enthusiastic about sponsoring the World Championships in some capacity.

2016 ACTA TRAP NATIONALS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTSThe ACTA would like to thank all of our sponsors: Casella Wines for their continued support of the Overall High Guns along with, Be-retta for the Handicap and Double Barrel events. Mackintosh major sponsor Perazzi, Champion of Champions sponsors Winchester, National Deauville Doubles spon-sors Hunts Shooting Supplies, the Lawson Motel sponsors of the Fam-ily Deauville Doubles, The Single Barrel event was also sponsored by Hunts Shooting Supplies. Australian/

New Zealand Points sponsor PCM Enviro and Double Rise sponsor Miall’s Gun Shop/ Blaser Australia. Outdoor Sporting agencies donated a Miroku Shotgun to the Junior High Gun winner and for the first time, shells to 2nd and 3rd. The support of these valuable sponsors is very much appreciated by the ACTA and shooters.

Many thanks to all the ACTA office staff – not only were they at the National event, they were also con-tinuing to run the National Office.

Thanks also to Fred Rapley and Gary Hayden (Tournament Director) who were out at 6.00am every morning setting traps and ensuring everything on the ground was in readiness for the start of each day. Fred was also the last to leave and closed up the compound at 6.00pm. David Joce-lyn was also in early every day and left late after loading for the next day. The trappers as always, were on hand to ensure the event was conducted smoothly with mini-mal disruption by filling the traps. Jim Shepherd not only worked the office with the ACTA staff and Glenn Woodhatch, but was also the pho-tographer providing the pictorial diary which is so important to the shooters, CTSN and the history of the Association.

Leanne and Arthur Turner catered for the shooters and others in attendance with a very large range of options from breakfast through to late afternoon. This year they were ably supported by Executive members, Colin Kneebone, Bronte Evans, Mal Dyson and Robert Nugent, plus numerous volunteers in providing the shooters’ BBQ on Wednesday. We again thank Arthur and Leanne for their donation towards the BBQ. The Wagga Gun Club provided the bar for the week which was well patronised from late afternoon through to presentations. The Lucky Draw certainly ensured the bar takings were substantial.

To Frank Auditore, who handled the squadding and scoring, a big thank you. Once again we saw the bene-fits of Frank’s computer program and Frank in running the program. The Championships would not have run in such a professional manner with-out the input and foresight of Frank. He spent many months assisting out Webmaster in getting the electronic nominations to a point where they


automatically populated into his program. Frank is responsible for setting up the pre-squadding and identifying referees making every-one’s position clear for the week.

His Shootmaster program was able to supply squad and shoot time details that made shooters aware of when and where they were shoot-ing. Frank has already commenced development of live streaming of results for computers and handheld devices. National Handicapper, Ray Peatling, along with wife Ann and Mal and Helen Dyson, ensured that books were up to date prior to the events. Also entering scores during the week, including re-grading and

ensuring participants had their books available when they wished to leave.

Thank you to Lynne Blake, Ann and Helen who gave her time freely to post scores on the whiteboards.

Once again we had the services of Daryl Stevens and Joe Camilleri with their stock making and repair services.

Ian McGeogh was also in attendance to look after problems with guns during the week. Ian’s experience enabled shooters to get back on the track with their own gun more often than not.

A huge thank you to Shoot Marshal, Sue Pim and assistant Janene Schiller for their great work at the Cham-

pionships. Their efficient running of the events resulted in most events being finished early to allow pres-entations at a reasonable hour.

I previously mentioned the ACTA staff for their work in the events office. Their efforts with nomina-tions and Hall of Fame Dinner were greatly appreciated. Judy looks after the nominations and Sue does a great job with the Hall of Fame.

Many thanks to George Barton who compares the Hall of Fame and does so with great humility, ensuring the event runs smoothly and those being awarded are the focus of the night.

To all of the National Executive

members who attended the Cham-pionships and in particular those who assisted with presentations and the conduct of the event.

Finally, thank you to the traders who provided their services at the event. It was great to see a carnival atmos-phere and friendly people.

The ACTA National Executive appre-ciate every contribution right through to the scorers and referees who gave up their time as volunteers to ensure a successful Trap Nationals.

Tony Turner

This is to be the first of a series of short articles planned for future editions exploring the concepts and purposes of the proposed new constitution for the ACTA. It is common knowledge that an earlier draft attracted criticism from a wide spectrum of members and state associ-ations and that, as a consequence, the National Executive withdrew the proposal from the 2016 Annual General Meeting. Your executive has taken on board the major concerns of members and the current draft differs in certain very significant aspects to the previous one.Before we commence on the “why” and the “what” let’s get the major objec-tions to the previous draft out of the way right at the beginning. Those as expressed to the Executive were as follows:• Loss of the clubs’ vote at the AGM• Lack of State representation on the Board • ACTA power to oversee and intervene in a state or club’s business and• Lack of publication of by-laws.Firstly under the revised draft clubs will retain the right to nominate dele-gates to vote at the AGM as occurs now. Also individual members will remain welcome at AGMs – in other words no change.Secondly the revised draft calls for one representative to be elected from each state and territory making a total of seven directors. However the selection process will differ somewhat to the current system but this will be explored in detail in a later article.Thirdly the requirements have been simplified from the old constitution to remove many of the direct specific requirements of the ACTA for Clubs and states in relation to reporting and intervention. A later article will go into greater detail about membership.Fourthly, while there never was any suggestion of “hiding” the by-laws, they will be published on the website and discussed in detail over the next few months. A point needs to be made here that it is standard practice for associ-ations to have the power to make by-laws and indeed the current constitution empowers the executive to:

determine rules, regulations, by–laws, policies, procedures for the governance and management of the Association and the sport of clay target shooting in Australia.

There will be no change as the future board will have the same power as the current executive, no more no less, to determine rules, regulations, by-laws, policies and procedures.There were other issues but to our knowledge those were the major stumbling blocks. As we progress through the document over the next few months it is intended that other lesser concerns will also be addressed. However all members are hereby invited to comment on this and future articles and/or make constructive suggestions. After all this is your organisa-tion and you have a right to help determine the future of ACTA.Now let us explore the reasons why we need to changeA constitution is the document which outlines the rules by which an organ-isation may legally conduct its business. Almost invariably the content and direction of a constitution reflect in part the prevailing political trends, social standards, laws and ethics at the time of its formal acceptance. However a constitution, while obviously important, is just a document and should never be regarded as written in stone as political trends, accepted standards, laws and ethics affecting associations are continually changing. Therefore a respons-ible organisation should incorporate into its business regular reviews of its constitution for current relevance and appropriateness. Organisations that do so are generally more successful being prepared to be progressive, innovative and dynamic. Our current constitution was formally accepted at the 2001 AGM but was many years in its development. Now fifteen years later it is a very different world so it was high time for a review which your executive undertook on your behalf. In order to get better recognition for our sport, grow our sport and get

more government funding/recognition we need to change. Currently ACTA is incorporated in Victoria but operates within NSW and is separately regis-tered as a national body. Obviously it would be better to truly organised and registered as a national entity not only saving costs associated with two registrations but more likely to be recognised by the Commonwealth Government as a national sporting organisation. Further, current standards and legislation signify the need to change to a more contemporary model such as a company limited by guarantee. Some of the drivers for change include:• Increased transparency in the association• Changing nature of the political cycle • Changes in government policy and regulations• Changing member expectations • Changing demographics • Changing national and international priorities • Increased necessity to collaborate with government • Technological changes and• Fiscal management.Space considerations precludes a detailed analysis of the above drivers for change but it is doubtful if any reasonable person would disagree that things have changed and will continue to change. Unfortunately the saying “if it aint broke don’t fix it” is not particularly useful for any modern organisation be it an international company or a simple incorporated club association. As indicated above the most successful organisations are those that move with the times so let’s get ACTA moving as well!Until next issue. Good shooting!

Robert Fox,

Skeet,5 Stand,TrapWangaratta Clay Target Club

March/April, 2016

to provide shooters with a top day of clay target shooting.

The club includes a 100 target sporting clay cham-pionship event each month in its shoot program this year and is proving to be very popular with shooters keen on this exciting and sometimes challenging discipline. Many top field shooters are attracted to sporting clays, due to the similarities between this event and wild game shooting.

The overall sash and AA grade was won by Adam Shale, dropping only 6 targets out of 100. Adam is recognised as a top competitor in this event and consistently performs at a level that is only attaina-ble by a few shooters. Mark Reynolds shot almost as well taking 2nd in AA with a score of 90/100. Junior shooter Rhys McGauran again demon-strated his skills with a shotgun, knocking out of the sky 83/100 targets and winning A grade.

Brodie Seccull claimed 2nd place on 80/100. After a short shoot off to decide the winners in B grade, Darren Saunders took home the sash with 77/110, closely followed by hardworking club man, Stephen Tamme on 75/110. Another nice result after a shoot off was achieved by C grader Clayton Easden 75/110, two targets ahead of Mark Large finishing on 73/110.

Graham Coyle won the best veteran trophy with a tally of 81/100. Graham continues to put in an enormous amount of work as club curator and is part of the enthusiastic group of 5 stand volunteers, instrumental in setting up all the traps on a regular basis.

DTL ChampionshipTwamley’s Top performanceLovely autumn weather greeted shooters at Wangaratta Clay Target Clubs two Down The Line championship events on April 16. The club uses fluoro White Flyer targets

SKEETCorbett Uses Sub Gauge to EffectVisiting shooter Mike Corbett used his sub gauge gun expertly to win overall and A grade at the March skeet shoot held at Wangaratta Clay Target Club on 27th March. Mike delivered an unbeatable result of 99/100 under perfect conditions and was thrilled to take home the sash against some very strong competition. Shepparton skeet shooter Peter Finn came 2nd place in this grade on 93/100.David Jackel also put in a nice score of 98/100 winning AA grade, just ahead of Paul Johnston 97/100. It was pleasing to see Warren Fish earn his 50 break badge with another excellent tally of 98/100 winning B grade and Benalla gent. Max Gribben taking 2nd with 92/100. All rounder Trevor Bussell scored 89/100 in C grade and 5 stand sporting clay enthusiast Ian Auranaune placed 2nd on 83/100.

Another very satisfying day of skeet shooting here in the North East of Vic consistent targets, friendly atmosphere and nice food all helped make for an unbeatable day of clay target shooting.

5 Stand ChampionshipAdam Shale wins OverallThe club was pleased with the number of sporting clay enthusiasts that shot at their 100 target, April 5 Stand championship. Nice weather prevailed all day, coupled with mainly perfectly functioning traps and a large range of different targets on offer, all helped

exclusively for this discipline and coupled with first rate equipment and infrastruc-ture, results in consistent targets for these events. Our club is also proud of the high standard of food on offer in the canteen, keeping shooters and visitors well nour-ished during the day.

Gordon Twamley’s near perfect performance allowed him to take home two overall win-ner sashes. Gordon won the popular 50 target medley event and A grade with a remarkable result of 99/100, placing Brian Harrison 2nd in this grade on 96/100. AA grader Daryl Hunt shot another good result of 98/100 winning AA, ahead of veteran shooter Stan Collins 117/120. Junior shooter Jacob Motha produced a tally of 93/100 winning B grade putting local hard work-ing clubman Graham Coyle 2nd with 111/120. Keen DTL lady shooter Jess Goodall gained the C grade sash with 98/120 ahead of Ian Cooksey 97/120.

The second champi-onship event was a 50 target double bar-rel and again Gordon Twamley was the winner. Gordon pro-duced a clean score of 69/69 followed by Paul Kovacs 60/61 in A grade. John

Skeet, 5 Stand, TrapContinued from page 16

One of Tumut Clay Target Club’s oldest members Vern Rees demonstrated that age is certainly no barrier when it comes to clay target shooting after he earned his first ever overall victory. Vern, who is almost 80 years of age first joined the ACTA in 1960, some 56 years ago and this was the first time in all that time he managed to reign supreme over the entire field. Having displayed some good form over several events in recent times it was great to see Vern be rewarded with a perfect round of 25 targets without a miss in the clubs monthly handicap event.

Mr Rees didn’t get it all his own way either, he was forced into a miss and out shoot-off competition decider after Yass veteran Robert Churchill also returned a perfect round of 25 targets, but the local man withstood the pressure and emerged a very happy champion with an unbeaten score of 33/33 and a 1m handicap penalty. Third place in the handicap match was taken out by visiting Queenslander Edgar Collins from the 21m handicap with a very fine score of 48/50. In what is thought to be a first time ever for the Tumut Club all three handicap match places were filled by veteran shooters.The supporting championship match of the day was a regular 50 target dou-ble barrel. Surprisingly it was a solitary 50/50 by Junee’s Michael O’Dowd that won the day outright, leaving several competitors stranded one behind on 49/50 and having to battle out for the grade placings well done Michael.High Gun over the program was won by Boorowa Junior member Corey Lees with and excellent daily tally of 159/162 following a shoot off with Wagga Wagga’s Ben Woodhouse. Corey returned rounds of 75/75, 48/50 & 24/25 in each of the three events programmed and then returned a perfect set of 12/12 in the shoot off and also demonstrated “age is no barrier” being the youngest competitor of the day.

AGE IS NO BARRIER AT TUMUT

NIGHT TRAP, March 12th was a more social occasion than usu-al when the opportunity was taken to say farewell to members Jeremy Clarke and Melody who have moved south. It was great to see some wives and partners present with a very pleasant evening had by all.In the shooting department, four squads took to the tracks for the usual 75 target medley.

Greg (“Pelican”) Graham was particularly impressive winning AA with possibles in the double barrel stage and the points score stage for a total of 122/125. Damien Webb won A with 116/125, Bruce Copper’s 115/125 included 25/25 in the double barrel stage to win B (yet again) and Mike Perkins won C (another yet again) on 103/125

SKEET March 19th. A small field of eight shoot-ers took part and a 75 target handicap event was held. Roy Warren (B3) and Peter Brown (A1) shared the spoils. Junior Reuben Oudomvilay is improving steadily and it won’t be long before he has his first win.

MONTHLY TRAP, March 27th. The caterer (Jaco) had a mild panic attack when thirty seven shooters turned up on Easter Sunday for the monthly Trap shoot after so many had indicated they would not be able to attend due to family commitments however everyone managed to get fed.

Details of the winners will be found in the results section of the magazine however some efforts warrant special mention.

Graham Gill (A grade), was one of only three shooters to score the maximum in the points score event following up with solid performances in the other events to win the High Gun for the day with a total of 170/180. Gilly made the statement that he now likes double rise when his 26/30 brought him from a couple behind to a couple in front.

Allan Clarke who has recently returned to shoot-ing regularly after a long sabbatical got into a rhythm shooting off with Peter Brown for AA in the double barrel event and looked like he could have kept going for a long time but unfortunately for Peter, one finally got away.

Harold Batson who has been forced to accept down grading and finally to make the change from right to left shoulder as a result of eye problems shot a good 25/25 winning B grade DB. No doubt he will quickly go back up the grades as he becomes more accustomed to the change.

Ian Sullivan and Jeff Lowndes had the longest shoot off for the day to deter-mine second in B grade until Ian finally let one land after 25 extra targets.

BALL TRAP, April 6th. Only six die-hards turned up. Chris Doust won the 50T winner take all sweepstakes event with a score of 46/50 to edge out Greg Pelican Graham on 45/50.

Don’t forget our two day shoot on 21st-22nd May. Details appear elsewhere in this issue of CTSN.

The Premier Teams event round one for the year was held at Korumburra and attracted 125 Shooters providing 20 teams and three Junior teams.Event I was the Handicap and this produced 22 possibles and also 33 with 24’s, so there were no reasons for those who struggled

to hit most of them. The shoot off had four squads and this was down to 14 shooters after the first ten targets, a further 10 targets had the group reduced to five still in with a show. Nathan McDonnell 69/69 from 25 metres was the winner, Jim Moustos 68/69 second and Paul Mota 49/50 third. Back Marker was Todd Malone 49/50 and Junior Front Marker Acacio Mota 25/25.

Half way in the Teams Section it was Werribee 3 only one point down on 124/125, Metro was 123 and Morwell Gold 122, all these were outstanding scores. The Werribee Juniors also shooting very well with one point down 49/50.

The Double Barrel was next with eight full squads having shot the possible, on completion of sixty shoot off targets there were still three full squads. With the total at 145 there were three left, Roger Esplin, Chris Murphy and Craig

Henwood, with the final result of Roger 148/148 Overall, Craig 147/148 AA and Chris 145/146 2nd AA. A W Kotlarowski 122/123, T Stockdale 117/118, B J Dagher 45/46, C Goodwin 42/43, C C Marshall 25/26, M BeBend 24/25.

Well after the last few years where the Lakeside Classic was a mixed bag of tor-rential rain and wind leading up to the event, beautiful summer weather greet-ed shooters to a great weekend. With a newly repaired road, courtesy of club armourer Ken Turnbull, locals and visitors were like Mater in the movie Cars . . . ”I’m driving on the new road!”.Fantastic prizes were again on display from spon-sors BCF – Glendale and local gun shop AAA – Arms and Ammo, Ballantine Ammunition and Horsley Park Gun Shop. The event prizes ranged from Waeco eskies, GoPro session 4, gun main-tenance kits and cases of Champion cartridges, to the 7 guns for the handicap and graded 2 day high guns.

Without a doubt, it wouldn’t be possible to have this quality of prizes on offer to shooters without the amazing generosity of these sponsors. Please, remember to support those who support you, it’s the way life is meant to be.

The traps were set on the morning “in still air”, as the mist could be seen rising off the dam as the sun came up over the distance hill on what was a beautiful day weather wise.

Event 1 was the 30tgt Cash Divide Points Score. Local shooter Peter McDonald swept the field with an impressive 90/90 in typical Peter no fuss style of “just shoot them”. Tom Turner, Duncan McPhie and Cesar Diaz were hot on his heels with 89/90.

As often happens at big events, despite having the traps serviced the week before, that bloke Murphy snuck in and caused havoc again, keep-ing trap mechanics Ross and Rod busy with elec-tronic processor card failures and some trying issues with targets. Many thanks to you both for your help on Saturday.

Event 2 was the Horsley Park Gun Shop 30tgt Single Barrel, with Cessnock’s Warren Warran taking an impressive 31/31 from Tony Arvanitakis 30/31. Visitor Jim Adamopoulis was warming up

to a great weekend with 2nd in A grade 28/30, and local paint-ing legend Giuliano “da Vinci” Mazzantini was in form on the day again with 1st in C grade and new shooter Nathan Weaver, 2nd C grade 26/37. Nathan assisted us with some new trap bearings from Newcastle busi-ness Bearing Dynamics, thanks again Nath.

Final event for Saturday was Event 3 the BCF Glendale 50tgt Double Barrel. Once again, if you want to see a shooter that can only be described as an all round great shot, look no further than Arms and Ammo business owner Tom Turner who took a clean 50/50 from the field. Not to be left in the shadows of dad was young Jack Turner taking A grade with 48/50. As they say “must be in the genes”. Local shooter Richard Van Heythuysen was to have a great weekend, as he took 1st B grade with a 49/50, and Mark Attard had what can only be described as an awesome weekend taking C grade 49/50.

With the day finished up early, the books balanced and traps filled, it was nice to sit down and enjoy a yarn at the days end before we take to it all again tomorrow.

Once again the small band of dedicated helpers were out setting traps at sunrise on Sunday as shooters were just getting out of bed. Thanks Teegs, Rod and Ken.

Event 4 was the BCF Glendale 30tgt Points Score. 1st in AA and O/all was Vito Balliana with a 98/99 from Brad McCudden 97/99. Talk about chalk and cheese. You always know when Vito is around, you can hear him! Brad you wouldn’t know he was there until he came up to shake hands and say g’day. Both shooters have 1 thing in

common though, they shoot well. Young local Jason Hancock shot off against John Moutolou-lis for 1st in A grade with 114/120, while “Mad Jack” Cunning-ham took B grade with 83/90 from Cessnock’s Darren Whipps on 81/90.

Event 5 was the Arms and Ammo 30tgt Han-dicap. Mark Attard was

at it again and took 1st in the event with a 31/32, adding the Howa .223 rifle to his boot load of prizes. Jason Hancock pipped local timber guru and grandfather Ron Han-cock to take the 2nd and 3rd respectively. It just goes to show that shooting is a family sport, as I think it would be a rare occurrence to have

Grandfather and grandson shooting and winning together. I’m not sure who was more proud, Ronny or his wife Maree.

The final event for the weekend was the Ballantine Ammunition 30tgt Champion of Champions. Overall and AA grade was again taken by Tom Turner, who was in fine form and made it look all too easy with a 47/50. Closely behind was Kev Raymond using his recently acquired Perazzi with a 45/50. Jim Adamo-poulis was again enjoying himself to take A grade on 45/50, with local Anthony Chapman taking B grade

on 40/50 and Tony Annecchini shooting a very good 44/50 for C grade – where’s that handicap book!!

As always we are spoilt for choice when it comes to the qual-ity and variety of food wonderfully presented to us by Lorraine Ban-nerman. The slices, cakes and meatball rolls are all home-made, and are nothing

short of brilliant . . . especially the caramel slice washed down with a cuppa.

Our office is run by two great girls, Sharni and Renae, who are always diligently tapping on a keyboard keeping records up to date, or writing up handicap books . . . and checking percentages.

With the books all done and prizes allocated, it was presentation time. Young Michael and Lach-lan Jenkins are becoming so accustomed to this part of the day I’m obsolete. Sponsor Tom Turner from AAA – Arms and Ammo, spoke briefly of his enjoyment in the sport before presenting some

prizes, including the Graded 2 day high guns who received a .22 rifle and gun bag from AAA. Proud grand-father Ron Hancock showed he still has it to take the veterans H/gun with a 296/340, with grandson Jason Hancock taking Junior High Gun 309/340. Vis-iting Libby Clarke took home the Ladies on 279/340, with Mark Attard sweeping C grade with a 281/340.

Richard Van Heythuysen looked suitably pleased with his B grade High Gun shooting very well with a 293/340, and visitor Jim Adamopoulos was happy as a cricket to win A grade with a 345/384. Peter McDonald showed again how to shoot really well without any fuss and finish up a winner, taking out AA grade with a very credible 314/340. Another

bloke who is always a great example of how to be a good shot without any fuss, was Overall High Gun Tom Turner, who finished the week-end with a fantastic 326/340. Some years back, a suggestion was made by one of the committee, to present the High Gun winner with a coveted Green Fleece Jacket, and this continues. Might keep you warm out spotlighting Tom.

Many thanks again to all who assisted in any capacity over the weekend, and it is because of

these people that many shooters get to have a great weekend. Great to see return visitors, and we look forward to you coming again.

Vale ROGER LYFORD – Member No. 72239

9.4.1945 – 28.03.2016

It is with much regret that we inform you of the passing of friend and fellow member, Roger Ly-ford, after a long battle with cancer.

Roger was a very keen field shooter, hunter and fisherman. At first, he didn’t have much time for Clay Target shooting. “Waste of lead!” he would say but after trying out on the clays a few times

he became hooked and rarely missed a weekend shoot at clubs around the North East of Victoria. He joined Mt Bogong Clay Target Club in 2008 and later, the Albury-Wodonga Clay Target Club after he and wife Judy moved to Albury.

Roger was a Kiwi by birth, having grown up on the family’s sheep prop-erty near Blenheim at the top of New Zealand’s South Island. He moved ‘across the ditch’ to Australia in 1966 and worked as an Animal Health Officer for the Victorian Department of Primary Industries for nearly forty years. He was well known for always being available to help anyone in need . . . no questions, no expectations. He was a Rotarian for many years, a past president, and was named a Paul Harris Fellow in recognition for outstanding commitment to Rotary and the community.

His presence around the traps will be sorely missed and on behalf of the Albury-Wodonga Clay Target Club and Mt Bogong Clay Target Club we extend our sincere sympathy to Judy and the Lyford families.

Albury-Wodonga CTC & Mt Bogong CTC

DOREEN AYLETTIt is noted with sadness the passing of Doreen Aylett on the 29th February 2016, aged 85 years.Doreen was an ACTA member for nearly 40 years who during that time was a club stalwart and highly respected member who worked tirelessly in different capacities along with her husband Kevin (dec) for the Devonport and later the Mersey Clay Target Club and also gave many years of service to the State Association.Patron & Life Member of this club and Life Member of the Tasmanian Clay Target Association. Doreen spent many years travelling around Australia with her husband Kevin, achieving National representation in two Mackintosh teams and winning several state and interstate titles.

A lot of effort had gone in for the 2016 Yarra Valley DTL Championships to listen to what the shooters wanted and try our hardest to provide it. Extensive work was done on all the traps to throw even better targets than what we were known for, new sponsors were sought to ensure better prizes as well as a new program. Hopefully all appreciated by those who attended.Day 1 of the competition on Friday 26th of Feb-ruary was “KAYMAR” Day!! Sponsored by Rod Jackson of Kaymar 4WD Accessories. Rod and his team at Kaymar have been a major supporter of this event for a few years now and we thank them dearly for their efforts.

55 shooters entered Friday’s events and the camping areas were starting to fill up as the day went on. Tricky light conditions and breeze would ensure perfect scores would be hard to come by and this proved to be the case.

25 Tgt KAYMAR Points Score ChampionshipOverall: Hayden Stafford 74/75, AA: 1st Pat Guida 74/75, 2nd Keith Calder 95/96, A: 1st Wally Kotlarewski 72/75, 2nd Steve Pellegrino 71/75, B: 1st Dean Reynolds 71/75, 2nd Mick Rocca 70/75, C: 1st Frank Balcombe 71/75, 2nd Liam Shore 69/75, Best Unplaced Lady: Inge Esplin 70/75, Best Unplaced Veteran: Lynne Curtis 72/75, Best Unplaced Junior: Andrew Evans 72/75.

The Double Barrel event saw a few more possi-bles recorded with 9 shooters walking out onto the tracks for the shoot off including Junior C grade shooter Liam Shore!! Great effort Liam. The shoot off become a long affair with Roger Esplin and Pat Guida settling down. Even coming back to 25m we still couldn’t find a winner and both guys agreed to “toss a coin” for the sash

With Friday’s events out of the way (these events not forming part of the High Gun) and everyone’s camps all set up it was time for some well earnt rest to attack the weekend’s shooting program. Perfect weather for Saturday and Sunday had been forecast so some good scores were going to be needed to take home the goodies

108 shooters had entered for Saturday’s events which was up on last year but still slightly down on expectations. A pleasing sight was the amount of visitors who had travelled great distances to come to the event.

First event of the day was sponsored by our hard working Treasurer and Score Board Marshall in Steve Pellegrino of Pellegrino Travel in Ringwood. A big Thanks to both Steve and Fausta for their great support of this event. A total of 6 shooters had been able to shoot all 25 targets with the first barrel and hit the tracks for the shoot off. Again it was Roger Esplin left as it got down to 2 shooters but this time with Steve Atkins of Echuca. After 11 targets in the shoot off Steve was the victor

25 Tgt "Pellegrino Travel" Points Score ChampionshipOverall: Steve Atkins 108/108, AA: 1st Roger Esplin 107/108, 2nd Phil Grainger 96/99, A: 1st Alan Hocking 75/75, 2nd Clint Bugter 76/78, B: 1st Chas Caldwell 74/75, 2nd Jeff Bell 73/75, C: 1st Matthew Bebend 70/75, 2nd Liam Shore 73/81, Best Unplaced Lady: Tina White 78/81, Best Unplaced Veteran: Keith Calder 75/75, Best Unplaced Junior: Mitch Iles 73/75.

The second event of the day was a 25 Target Single Barrel event sponsored by the boys from Complete Civil who have been helping out with a lot of the clubs recent upgrades and we not only thank them for sponsoring us but also all the great work they have done around the place. Possibles we slow to come in at the start but as the sun burnt its way thru the cloud red ink started to appear. Again 6 possibles on the board with the final shoot off going a further 17 targets

25 Tgt "Complete Civil Constructions" Single Barrel ChampionshipOverall: Daryl Hunt 42/42, AA: 1st Steve Atkins 41/42, 2nd Glen Evans 40/41, A: 1st Inge Esplin 24/25, 2nd Tess Lloyd 34/36, B: 1st Vic Tomosoni 24/25, 2nd Chas Caldwell 23/25, C: 1st Gavin Jayasekera 23/25, 2nd Kath Wilkins 22/25, Best Unplaced Lady: Sandy Ellis 25/25, Best Unplaced Veteran: Fred Heinze 25/26, Best Unplaced Junior: Mitch Iles 24/25.

This left the main event for the day. The 50 Tar-get Bronze Wing Double Barrel proudly spon-sored by Bronze Wing Ammunition Australia. Some great prizes were up for grabs with an ATA Shotgun for Overall, Marlin .17HMR for each grade and an Air Rifle for 2nd each grade all fully sponsored by Bronze Wing. Thank you guys for your great support. 7 full squads of possibles were recorded with weather condition’s getting better and better ensuring a good long shoot off. Out to the traps they went and shot right thru to our curfew of 6pm. We had 3 left at 250 on Saturday night in Phil Grainger, Mitch Iles and Jack Wallace. Both Mitch and Jack had just got off a plane after competing in the ISSF Grand Prix in Qatar and both young boys were starting to look tired and glad when the shoot marshal called it quits to come back at 9am tomorrow morning to finish off.

Saturday nights feast was put on with big thanks to everyone who helped out providing salads and sweets but a big big thank you goes to both Frank Santoro and Jim Turner for all their efforts, par-ticularly Jim who is always happy to loan his spit roasts to us for all big events. Thank you guys the food was to die for and appreciated by all. A great social night with the boys behind the bar keeping everyone refreshed all night.

At 9am the boys were back to it and the first shots woke a few of the campers (some with sore heads). After a further 40 targets we had a victor.

On completion of the Double Barrel, the first wave of shooters were straight out for Sundays first event proudly sponsored by Hayden and Vicki Stafford of SASAA Security. Both Hayden and Vicki are not only great supports of our club but also shooting in general and it is great to have them on board for our biggest shoot of the year.

Again the early morning cloud proved very difficult and scores coming in were not great. From 110 shooters only 2 shooters managed to shoot the 30 Points Score event clean in Tony A and Robbie Pistone. Only one target was needed to determine a winner

30 Tgt "SASAA" Points Score ChampionshipOverall: Tony Arvan-takis 93/93, AA: 1st Rob Pistone 92/92, 2nd Jack Collicoat 212/213, A: 1st Dean Reynolds 92/93, 2nd Allen Hocking 91/93, B: 1st Ken Balcombe98/102, 2nd Matt Tin-gate 95/102, C: 1st Michael Lamb 84/90, 2nd Jason Bellis 80/90, Best Unplaced Lady: Michelle Boase 89/90, Best Unplaced Veteran: Keith Calder 89/90, Best Unplaced

Junior: Mitch Iles 89/90.

The second event for Sunday’s proceedings was sponsored by Melbourne’s newest Gun Shop in Darren & Tina White from “Yarra Valley Hunt-ing & Recreation”. It was a big ask for them to jump on board only having their official opening on the Friday night of our shoot but was great to see their continued support and dedication to Melbourne Gun Club. If you want a great deal be sure to check out their shop.

The event was a 30 Target Medley of 10DB, 10SB, 10PTS all off 15m which saw some great scores recorded and a great shoot off to watch with 6 possibles recorded. This time it was Mal Briggs who had put the skeet gun away for the

weekend to show the Trap Shooters just how it’s done coming out on top.

The last event for our carnival was the big one. The Beretta Australia 30 Target Handicap with a brand new Beretta Silver Pigeon up for grabs. Beretta have been on board with us for this event since its inception and we are very grateful for their continued support. By this stage the breeze had picked up making the targets a little tricky, as the breeze was swirling one minute the targets would be low, next they would be high but this didn’t seem to bother Phil Grainger recording the only possible of the event to have a “skinner” with a great 30/30 from the back mark. The 29’s then all made their way out for a long shoot off for 2nd and 3rd.

This just left the High Guns to be sorted and after a very consistent weekend of shooting saw Pat Guida come out on top. The High Guns were kindly sponsored by La Porte.

La Porte High Guns. Overall: Pat Guida 315/320, AA: Joe Gilbert 312/320, A: Allen Hocking 308/320, B: Jeff Bell 295/320, C: Liam Shore 296/320, Best Unplaced Lady: Amanda Holt 299/320, Best Unplaced Veteran: Keith Calder 311/320, Best Unplaced Junior: Mitch Iles 309/320.

That concluded the 2016 Yarra Valley DTL Championships at Melbourne Gun Club which we think was one of the more successful yet with everything running like clockwork thanks to all the boys who helped out on the board and to Cherilyn & Georgia in the office.

A big thank you to all our sponsors for this year – Kaymar, Pellegrino Travel, Bronze Wing Australia, SASAA Security, Yarra Valley Hunting & Recreation, Beretta Australia, La Porte, Paramount Projects, Inline Contractors & Ian Fraser. Thank you guys for all your efforts it is greatly appreciated.

Also a big thank you to the long list of Melbourne Gun Club committee & members who helped out during the weekend. I am not going to name you all as I will be sure to forget someone but thank you one and all.

Finally thank you to all of the shooters particularly those who had travelled great distances (WA & QLD) to make our shoot the success that it was. We look forward to seeing you all next year.


Firstly to start off with some background about the event itself. The Glenn Cup started back in 1960 and it's an event contested between Australia and New Zealand. It’s contested in Skeet and ISSF shooting, but in this report, a Trap event. On 10 occasions it's ended in a draw. The mighty Kiwi's have won it a grand 17 times, and that leaves Australia winning 28 times. There is a blank spot on the Trophy for 2004 but I have been unable to find out why? So if there's any one with a mind for the details that could fill me in as to why this is, then by all means please call me I'd love to know why.But back to this years Glenn Cup. Before we'd even left home, I'd been given the job of transporting the Cup, and each day before we left I'd walk past it sitting up on my dining table, looking at the years we'd won, wondering what each of the team members since 1960 had thought about being in this team,

And looking at the fact that we'd won the lion share of the event. I had a terrible thought . . . what if we don't win!!! I'd just read the February CTSN and seen Nigel Hughes's article that our Skeet boys had just been and defeated the Kiwi's, and on the same ground. No pressure there, could you dream of the ribbing a Trap shooter would get from one of the winning team Skeet shooters?? Well I can and that's the last thing I wanted to be part of.

All of our team had decided to shoot the whole of the New Zealand Trap Nationals. The team was Glen Castellaro, Dan Power, Matty Patmore, Craig Kelly and Wayne Hawker.

To say we showed our hand early would be a little bit of an understatement, because every team member got a little something from the Kiwi table.

And speaking of tables, we had the honour of being invited to the New Zealand Hall of Fame Dinner, which Dan, Craig, Wayne and myself, with Craig's lovely wife Helen and my ever understanding partner Tracey attended. It was a little different to our dinners, with more speeches, and a

few to stir us up. A few more awards such as a different long run from 15m, that goes from miss to miss, but it doesn't end till you miss, so if you shoot at 10 clubs and don't miss it counts as your long break.

But to the shooting. It started with Craig Kelly in the Ball Trap where he went out and smashed the 50 targets to get into the shoot off and went on to claim the runner-up. Next up was Dan Power who took to them in the New Zealand Minis, and again another team member grabs the runner-up. Two days in and we're looking good, then the change, up until this point the days had been mid to high 20's. But that wasn't to stay. The 3rd day I woke to hear 160km winds and rain!! Thinking that's not going to be any good for anyone along comes Wayne Hawker. And knocks out the qualifying in the Triples (mixed targets but no doubles) and then goes on to grab 3rd. So by the 4th day that leaves Glenn and myself on a big goose egg. Not looking great, and getting colder.Then came the New Zealand Single Rise (Double Barrel to us) and after the qualifying I just assumed all five of us would go after them in the shoot

off. But I was somewhat wrong, only three of us made the cut. Craig Kelly, Wayne Hawker and myself (Matty Patmore). To cut to about 150 targets into the shoot off I think it was Craig Kelly who said “How good would it be if we came rirst second and third??” At this stage, a great idea but what are the odds? There could be 15 still going. So in about another 50 targets there we are the three Aussie Glenn Cup team mates 1 2 3. So a quick hand shake to honour the moment and back into it. Maybe another 50 and it's all over. Myself the victor, Wayne 2nd and Craig 3rd. So at this point we think we've got this Cup all but home. We've shown we can shoot double barrel. And Glenn is just about to win the Single Barrel, with the only possible! So I'm thinking Glen only needs one shot, let alone two. And we won't talk about the National Points event. We all had a shocker! Great lead into the Glenn Cup match.The Glenn Cup Match is 50 target Double Barrel, but is scored Points. Before the match we were going to shoot in our Australian Glenn Cup shirts and black pants. But at this stage it's all of 11 degrees with a little wind and cloud to help. So it's jumpers under the shirts to try and keep warm, and anything else you have to put on.We won the toss, and off we go, a few words from our Team Captain Glen Castellaro, “don't miss and we've got this” followed by “it's only 50 targets Double Barrel, just hit them”. Normally we'd destroy 50 most days of the week. But then comes the pressure . . . We've won 28 to their 17. And again I think of the Skeet Team, having already won and safely back in warm Australia just waiting to hear how we went.

I don't want to shame any team mates, but after the first 125 targets, 2 have hit the ground.

So not great, but not the end of the world, we'll knock out this next 125, and we should be right?

At the change of traps we hear murmurs that they've dropped a couple? So were still in this thing we think. But the next 125 targets don't go very well for us at all. We smash a few and then one lands, then same again, we're getting it together and heavens above another one goes on unbroken, I'm starting to worry. What are the Skeet boys going to say.

What are the team members from 95 to 2001 who won seven straight going to say? Will they ever speak to us again? Please don't miss any more.

When the last shot is fired by Wayne Hawker. We're 6 down, (everyone has missed bar one, but again no shaming the team). The boys are a little sombre as we shake each others hands, have some photo's taken by friends and family. Until word comes that they’re in trouble, they've had a equally bad second half and missed 7 on that trap. So a little adding up and we're 6, so if they've missed 7 in one visit, we've won! Our heads are high again, we don't have to worry about the Skeeties any more, job’s done! All the banter we copped at the New Zealand Hall of Fame Dinner, was all forgotten in a heart beat. So all we have to do is go and suit up and have a well earned drink, while the Kiwi's finish up there Points shoot offs and some team places to sort out.

Before the presentation ceremony. At this stage to say I'm happy would be the biggest understatement of this year, On behalf of the team our thanks go to Tracey Robinson for her fine work with the camera, and putting up with me, and also Keith Beddie who I asked to be our team photographer while we were at the shoot. Their photo's are fantastic.

To sign off these opportunities to be part of our trapshooting history don't come every day, so if you get the chance grab it with both hands, and make the most of it.

With the trap Nationals over for another year it is interesting to look at what makes a successful shooter. Success at the nationals

can range from being the national champion, section or grade champion, or member of the McIntosh team. You can also be considered successful if you were able to set a new personal best or if the competition provided you with the opportunity to have fun and learn.

According to the Jack Lesyk from the Ohio Centre for Sport Psychology, there are nine specific mental skills that contribute to success in sport. Lesyk argues that all of these skills can be learned and can improve with instruction and practise. He also points out that these skills for achieving success at sport are the same skills that can be used to achieve success in all other areas of their lives.

The nine specific skills can be arranged in three levels;:• long term development skills (basic skills), • immediate preparation for performance (preparatory skills),• skills used during the competition itself (performance skills).

Lesyk arranges the nine mental skills within a pyramid to show the relation-ship of each skills with the others. The higher levels are based upon the skills of the preceding levels.

What do the skills at each level look like? The basic or long term development skills are listed as level 1 and can be described as:

1. Attitude. Successful athletes understand that attitude is a choice and they predominately choose a positive attitude. This positive attitude is not just about winning, but I also includes learning new skills and techniques, dealing with losing and overcoming stress and injury. Successful athletes view their sport as an opportunity to compete against themselves and to pursue excellence not perfection. They can maintain a balance between sport and their life and show an ability to respect the sport, other com-petitors, coaches and officials.

2. Motivation. Successful athletes are aware of the rewards and benefits that they can expect by participating in their sport. They are also able to persist through difficult tasks and times, even if these rewards are not

Athletes

f b i th ti

immediate. They realise that the reward come from participation and not just the outcome. Successful athletes are process driven (participat-ing) rather than product focused (the trophy).

3. Goals and Commitment. Successful athletes set long and short term SMART Goals. Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time ori-entated. They are also well aware of their current performance level and have realistic goals to achieve the next step or level. Finally, successful athletes are committed to their goals and achieving the desired results.

4. People Skills. Successful athletes realise that they are part of a larger system that includes their families, friends, teammates, etc. They are effective at communicating their needs to these people. They are able to express their feelings and thoughts and listen to others as well. They have learnt effective skills for dealing with conflict, difficult opponents and other negative and oppositional people.

Level 2 skills are the preparation skills necessary immediately prior to performing in the competition.

5. Self Talk. Successful athletes maintain self-confidence during difficult times with realistic and positive self-talk. They talk to themselves the way they would talk to their best friend. That is, they do not berate or belittle themselves, and they are able to use self talk to regulate their thoughts, feelings and behaviour during the competition.

6. Mental Imagery. Successful athletes us mental imagery when preparing for competitions by seeing themselves perform well and achieving good results. They create and use mental images that are detailed, specific and realistic. Successful athletes also use mental imagery to recover from errors or poor performances, rather than dwelling on the problems.

Both of these skills are integral in developing effective pre-shot routines for many of the shooting disciplines.

Finally the level 3 skills are the performance skills that the successful ath-lete uses during each and every competition.

7. Managing Anxiety. Successful athletes accept that anxiety is part of sport and life and that some degree of anxiety can help them perform well. They also know how to reduce anxiety when it becomes burdensome. Using techniques such as focused breathing, centreing and the Black Box technique can be helpful in reducing anxiety.

8. Managing emotions. Successful athletes accept that all emotions, and especially strong emotions such as anger, excitement, disappointment, etc are all part of the sporting experience. Rather than interfering with high level achievement and performance, successful athletes use their emotions to improve.

9. Concentration. Successful athletes know that they must focus their atten-tion and know how to narrow the focus when it is required. Successful athletes have learned and mastered the ability to maintain focus and resist both internal and external distractions. They are also able to regain their focus when it is lost and by focusing on the here and now aspect of the game stay firmly fixed in the present and avoid the traps of thinking about the past and the future.

It is hoped that as you read this article you will recognise the mental skills you have and use. It is also hoped that you will see the relationship and integra-tion of these skills, and you will seek out ways to learn those skills you need to improve your performance and enhance your ability.

The Easter weather was favourable for a good turn-out for the annual Good Friday competition at Callawadda/Stawell. Competitors from a vast area converged on the venue to compete for an extensive range of prizes and sashes. Also a big draw card was to see if they could take home a share in the $500.00 up for grabs if anyone shot the program clean. (Good luck for the Club, no competitors were good enough).The Club was very thankful to having support from generous sponsors on the day, we would like to thank Wilky’s sheds & Fencing, TK Auto Electrix, the Grant & Gibson Families, Bronze-wing Ammunition and Westway Nursery & Garden Centre for their valued support for as we all know without sponsorship such events could not be held.

on 46. Master mower, George Toyne shot consistently to collect 43 targets to win C Grade with second going to Geoff Beht on 41/50. Thanks to George’s tireless work our Club grounds always look a picture – and he shoots pretty well too.

Second event for the day was a 50 target Continental points score. George Toyne again took the prize in C Grade with a 98/150. Ray McLeod and George Adamopoulos entertained the crowd for a further eleven targets before George pulled a second barrel. Ray collected with the first to take second with a score of 119/183.

CAMPINGTo ensure the comfort of all campers on the National ground we have to continually review requests for sites based on the size of vans, annex and tents. It is necessary for the ACTA to ensure your accommodation does not encroach on neighbouring sites. You will receive as part of your booking email the dimensions of your site, it is the campers responsibility to ensure your accommodation conforms to our regulations. If it does not fit the site you will be asked to move to an available site elsewhere on the ground. This may not include requests for power and will be determined by the size of the site required. To ensure all goes smoothly with your camping please ensure you are aware of these requirements. If you have a potential problem please phone the National office to discuss your requirements.

ISSF REVIEWAt a meeting with Shooting Australia and the Australian Sports Commission in September 2015 the ACTA Board was advised there will be a review of all selection policies of Shooting Australia following the RIO Olympics. With the 2016 Olympics less than three months away the ACTA is calling for submissions offering alternative selection processes for selection in Shooting Australia Teams.

These submissions should propose constructive mean-ingful and detailed submissions on the way forward. All submissions from interested individuals, or Clubs, Zones or States should be directed through those channels to the Executive Officer of the ACTA.

The submissions submitted will assist the ACTA with a clear direction to put forward to Shooting Australia prior to their Policy review.

Submissions need to reach the Executive Officer by Friday 10th June via email [email protected]

The submissions will be reviewed and discussed by the Full Executive at their June meeting.

It has been an outstanding and very successful year at our Club. We continue to be well supported by shooters from all over the state and the mainland. Mersey Clay Target Club have established a reputation of holding successful, well organised shooting events and this is achieved by the selfless contribution of Executive Committee and Members.

These shoots would also not be as successful if it was not for the generous sponsorship received throughout the year. Thank you to Landmark, Doug & Elaine Polden, The Aylett Family, Howard & Kath Von Stieglitz, Nick & Nat Brown, Damien & Sally Aylett, Mike & Susie Johnston, Tim & Fiona Atkins, Luke Whiteley, Brian & Heather Bailey, Shane & Janet Johnston, Grant & Angela Whiteley and Tooly Campbell (TC Fabrications)

There has been a substantial amount of work carried out to improve our range and club house this year and without efforts from a committed team of Members this would not have eventuated. This included installation of underground power cables to trap and club houses, lining and lighting of the club rooms and renovations to both the office and kitchen areas.

Our Two Day Memorial Shoot was held again in January 2016.

This was once again sponsored by Richard Whiteley (W A Auto Electrics), Marty Miles (Mile Contracting), Michael Kelly and Michael Johnston (Kelly Gang Timbers), Robbie Elmer and the Whiteley/Johnston familes. It was a great success and attracted approximately 80 shooters from far and wide. Five events were held over 2 days (50 Points Score Championship, 50 DB Jack Cunningham Memorial Championship, 45 Champion of Champions, 50 DB Denis Whiteley Memorial Championship and Kelly Gang Calcutta (competitors drawn from several categories and shot off for cash prizes).

On a sad note, our condolences to Kath and Howard Von Steiglitz on the recent passing of Doreen Aylett a Life Member and the Clubs Patron. Doreen was a club stalwart and a highly respected member who worked tirelessly in different capacities over many years. Her contribution to the club has assisted in the success it is today, she will be greatly missed.
