Mahendra Persaud off to annual Imperial Shoot at Bisley, England
Commonwealth Games selectee Mahendra Persaud has departed the shores of Guyana to
Mahendra Persaud
participate in the annual Imperial Shoot at Bisley, England. His participation in the Imperial Championships, which is termed the mecca of shooting in the world, was made possible through the Guyana Olympic Association. The Championship is billed to run from July 7 to 22.
The final, which is for the HM Queen’s Prize, will see the final hundred shooters competing for the trophy, from a starting number of over one thousand. Mr. Lennox Braithwaite, the other Commonwealth Games selectee, was unable to obtain his British visa on time for travel. He however, along with Persaud will be attending the Canadian National Championships in August followed by the Australian National Championship in October, immediately following the West Indies Championship being held in Guyana.
The Championship in Australia will be held at the very range the Commonwealth Games shooting will take place. This will therefore enable the shooters to acquaint themselves with the conditions of the range and to gauge their preparation thus far with the other selectees who will all be attending the Championship.
