Well done to the Cundall Manor School pupils who recently received accreditation for their Clay Pigeon Shooting Association Shotgun Skills.

The pupils had to complete a thorough theory and practical examination in order to achieve their badges.

An initial 2 ½ hr lecture on all aspects of gun safety, gun fitting, correct stance and target acquisition using both the CPSA Method, swing through and applied lead methods started the day on a firm footing.

Pupils then visited the Park Lodge Shooting School near Selby to receive one-to-one tuition on DTL (Down the Line), Skeet and Sporting shoots.

Mr Reece, a former CCRS adult national champion in both Skeet and DTL, ably led the day. Pupils left with two certificates (CPSA Discover/Experience Clay Shooting and CPSA Shotgun Skills) and will now turn their attention to the North of England Schools Championships to be held on the 19th of this month
