Deanna Coates recovered from a shaky start in her R2 standing air rifle event where she did not qualify for the finals on the first day of competition to take silver the next day in the mixed open falling target rifle event, which saw all the best male and female rifle shooters at the competition take part.

Pasan, who recently joined Disability Target Shooting Great Britain as the full time National Coach and Performance Manager on 16th April, said ‘I am quite pleased with the athletes’ excellent performance and we were proud to see the British Flag flying twice at the Medal Ceremonies’.  SPM Claire Stirling, who works with disability shooting, said ‘It is really good to see the athletes bringing home medals at such a World Class event as we approach Beijing.  The team was able to perform at the highest level in the Far East showing that our preparation and travel strategies are going to plan.’
