British Shooting’s board of directors met on 20^th July to revisit the statement issued by the Chairman on 1^st July. The board has decided to withdraw this statement.  In the light of further information, British Shooting continues to seek a shooting venue for London 2012 which is a permanent “bricks and mortar” legacy. British Shooting therefore wish to make it crystal clear that their preferred option is to host the 2012 shooting event at Bisley. We affirm that British Shooting will continue to work with LOCOG to maximise legacy opportunities and we will do all that is necessary to ensure that the shooting events at the Olympic Games are truly successful. 

The following bodies were represented at this meeting:- 

British International Clay Target Shooting Federation, National Rifle Association, National Small-Bore Rifle Association, English Target Shooting Federation, Welsh Target Shooting Federation, Scottish Target Shooting Federation, Target Shooting Federation of Northern Ireland, Muzzle Loaders Association of Great Britain.  Disability Target Shooting Great Britain.
