\addsec{Report}

DURC sent a team of four to this year's WTSC Open, the first
competition of the Air Rifle season. Attendance was low due
to difficulties with transport and lack of training time for
new club members. The UCD Open in two weeks should see a much
higher attendance from DURC. 

The new WTSC mobile range was used: this range is currently
the largest in the country with 15 firing points. It
currently hosts the National Squad training sessions as well
as other large competitions. Previously, only the UCD range
could cope with these events. 

The DURC contingent arrived in WTSC early on Sunday morning,
despite having attended the Olympic Council of Ireland's
seminar on coaching in the University of Limerick the day
before. Mark, Peter and Ben shot on the first detail, Steven
acting as ``buddy'' for all three. The ``buddy'' system,
recently introduced in DURC by Steven, has proven a great
success - the ``buddy'' acts as another pair of hands for the
shooter while setting up on his/her firing point and general
dogsbody during the match to minimize disruption for the
shooter, who then trades role with the ``buddy'' on the next
detail. This allows for one-to-one supervision of new
shooters as well as improved performance of experienced
shooters.

Steven and Mark both set personal bests of 571 and 544
respectively and both went through to the ten-shot final,
where Steven had the best final score of the match. Mark was
shooting with his new air rifle and other gear - and despite
some silly technical errors that lost him up to 15 points,
shot a PB. Proving that the right equipment can make a
serious difference to performance. For reference, 565 is the
Minimum Qualifying Score, or MQS, for the Olympics; 537 is
the qualifying score for the National Developmental Squad;
and 559 is the qualifying score for the National Squad.

Peter Byrne and Ben Jones had dissappointing scores given
their recent averages - Ben has competed in the finals of the
Centenary Bisley postal in air rifle (an international match
where he placed fourth out of hundreds), and Peter is
currently one of the top three junior shooters in Ireland.
