    The time has come. The bags are packed, licences checked one last time, passports & tickets all present ready and correct....... World Championships and European Championships, the FIGHTING IRISH are on their way.
    Paul H, Ged, Robbie, Ryan, John, Dessie, Peter, Niall and Paul C are going to represent Ireland in Rimfire Benchrest Shooting. All this has been financed by themselves with no Governmental or Sporting Body support. Yet they wear the Green White and Gold very proudly.
    We would like to wish them all the very best for the week of fantastic competitive shooting that's ahead of them in some quite hot temperatures. Today Thur - they hit 35C so the mirage is going to be great fun - we don't get to play in that often in this wet and windy country!
    New friendships will be made, old ones revisited and memories that they will hold onto forever, especially the younster. Ryan, have a fantastic time and shoot well.
    PS - DON'T FORGET THE BOLTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    PPS bring home the medals! (no pressure) :-D
