Silver for Helen at BUCS

Congratulations to Rugeley and Staffordshire shooter Helen Robinson, who won silver today with Loughborough Uni Rifle Club at the BUCS Short Range Championship, held at Staveley Rifle Club near Sheffield.

Helen’s Loughborough team qualified in third place via the winter postal stages, and improved on this to finish second in the final. Silver was a drop from last year’s championship win, when Loughborough pipped St Andrews to the win by just six points – 2311 to 2305.
