bob300w Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Bit of good news from the "The Shooting Times"; Only a small number of elite pistol shooters will be exempt from the handgun ban to allow them to train in the run-up to the Olympics. Currently, Olympic shooters wishing to practice their sport can only do so abroad. A Department for Culture , Media and Sport (DCMS) spokesman told Shooting Times: "UK Sport and DCMS are committed to doing all we can to maximise our chances of success in 2012 in all Olympic sports." "There is agreement in principle across government departments to allow all our athletes to train in the run-up to 2012. Proposed changes are within the existing legislative framework and would only relate to a small squad of elite pistol shooters." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
