INTERNATIONAL SUCCESS

Created on 13th May 2009

Great Britain's top disabled shooters won three medals at the recent IPC Shooting Open Championships Jiki Cup in Korea. In total, shooters took home one gold and two bronze from the event held 23-30 April.

Paralympic athletes Deanna Coates, Nathan Milgate and Matt Skelhon won gold R3 10m air rifle prone mixed team with a total score of 1,793. They fended off competition from hosts Korea and third-placed Slovakia to take the honour.
To follow, both Deanna and Nathan achieved an individual bronze medal. Deanna took third in 10m air rifle standing SH1, behind Poland's Veronika Vadovicova in second and Mi Sook Lee from Korea in first.

Nathan's individual bronze came in the 10m air rifle standing SH1, after a valiant but fruitless struggle against the Koreans.
