Mon 4th 16:00 Eric Wilkinson Memorial Cup 50ABT (Dark Nights)
Our last shoot of the summer season was in Memory of Mr Eric Wilkinson, a founder member of the club which he started along with friends in 1970. Following recent improvments to the grounds infrastructure, the current committee all agread to commemorate Mr Wilkinsons devotion to the club by inviting his family to officially open the new cover for the DTL stand which has been dedicated in Memory of Eric. A new trophy was also purchased to compliment the evening so that Eric’s commitment to the club will live on for many years to come.
The competition for the night was 50 Automatic Ball Trap, with many competitors all striving to have their name inscribed on this well sort after trophy, following some excellent scores being produced and some stiff competition from some very experienced shooters the night ended with a shoot off between two of the clubs youngest members, both of which are showing great potential in the sport of Clay pigeon shooting. Eric would have been thrilled to see these two shoot at the level they are at such young ages.
15 year old Josh Rayner who is ranked 1st for Durham and the North of England in the colts category of ABT and Adam Holmes who at 21years of age has just returned from Ireland with Junior High Gun after representing England in the Home International ABT Team, both produced a score of 48 out of a potential 50 on the night, putting them at logger heads for a tense 10 clay shoot off, as the darkness started to fall Adam secured the title following a fallen clay by Josh at the 9th target. Very impressive to watch, the prestigious trophy was presented to Adam by the family of Mr Wilkinson who said they had thoroughly enjoyed the evening and wished the club many more years for success.
