FCP Notice re: Firearms Act roll out
Following advice from the Attorney General that Statutory Instruments giving effect to the firearms act amendments must apply to full sections of the Act and not to part sections, it is now the case that some of the planned roll out of the new firearms code will be delayed at least until the enactment of the Firearms Miscellaneous Bill which is due for publication on July 3rd under the Programme for Government. As a result, the intended classification of restricted firearms will not now be applied on May 1st 2008 as planned.

Folks,
Due to organisers and shooters being utterly exhausted following the highly successful GB Junior International trip, the August 18 Air Rifle match has been cancelled. The next match, the August 25th NTSA Airgun Summer League match, is still scheduled to go ahead as planned.
Apologies for this, but we're all shattered out here!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

IRISH JUNIOR SHOOTING TEAM WINS GOLD, SILVER MEDALS IN GB JUNIOR INTERNATIONAL EVENT

Bisley Camp, Surrey, UK, August 10 -- The Irish Junior Shooting Team ended off a highly successful tour at the 15th Annual Great Britain Junior International Event today, with Susan Cunningham (17, Meath) winning the Gold Medal in the Junior Women's Air Rifle Grand Prix competition and Damien Fagan (20, Meath) winning the Silver Medal in the Junior Men's Air Rifle Grand Prix competition.

This brings the total medal count for the Irish Junior Shooting Team to 6. Susan Cunningham has, along with her Gold medal, the Silver medal for the Individual Junior Women's Air Rifle match from Wednesday; the Junior Women's Team of Susan Cunningham, Paula Cunningham her younger sister and Elizabeth O'Hagan won the Silver medals in the Team Junior Women's Air Rifle match, also on wednesday; and Damien's Silver Grand Prix medal makes six. This equals the previous record medal count set five years ago by a team from Wilkinstown, Co.Meath.

There were tears of joy and emotional reactions amongst all of the shooters and support staff at the outcome. The icing on the cake was when Team Manager Mark Dennehy was asked by the National Smallbore Rifle Association to officiate at the medal presentation ceremony, which meant that he had the honour of putting the Gold medal around Susan's neck.

This event also marked the first time an Irishman has adjudicated at an international event, with Team Manager Mark Dennehy finding himself seconded to the Judges pool in an unexpectedly early exercising of his recently-granted ISSF Class B Judges' Licence.

There were a total of 165 competitors (including the Irish Junior Team) competing in the event from the official GB Junior team as well as teams from England, Scotland, Wales, N.Ireland, Denmark, Germany, the USA and Ireland.

The Irish team returns to Dublin Airport tonight at 18:45.

The Irish Junior Shooting Team is:
Team Officials:
Mark Dennehy, Team Manager
Geoff Cooney, Team Coach
Marina Cunningham, Team Childrens Officer

Team Shooters:
Women's Air Rifle:
Susan Cunningham (currently the Irish National Champion in Women's Air Rifle) (Gold Medal, Junior Women's Air Rifle Grand Prix; Silver Medal, Junior Women's Air Rifle Individual; Silver Medal, Junior Women's Air Rifle Team)
Paula Cunningham (Silver Medal, Junior Women's Air Rifle Team)
Elizabeth O'Hagan (Silver Medal, Junior Women's Air Rifle Team)
