Guyana on a quest to defend multiple titles

2018 West Indies Full-Bore Championship

The Paragon Ranges in Barbados come alive again as the Guyana National Rifle Association (GuyanaNRA) Fullbore Team set out to defend their Long/Short Range titles in this year’s tournament.

Led by 32-year-old newbie captain Dylan Fields, following the absence of recovering National captain Mahendra Persaud, who is out of this year’s competition due to illness, Guyana will seek to make the land of the flying fish theirs again when they defend their titles against shooters from around the world.
Persaud’s absence also means the Guyanese veteran will not be able to defend his individual championship title.
The local team landed in Barbados on Saturday as they look to get themselves acclimatized with a practice session at the 300- and 900-yard ranges, which shot off at 10:00h on Sunday, as they prepare for today’s individual competition.
The shoot will last throughout the week, with Friday being the Long Range Match-Milex and Crown Mining Cup, followed by the Short Range Match on Saturday.
