Highway. The match which has once again been exclusively sponsored by El Dorado Trading is expected to be eagerly contested by all of the GSSF’s top steel challenge shooters.

During a simple ceremony at the El Dorado Trading Headquarters in Kingston where the sponsorship cheque was handed over to the Federation, President of the GSSF, Ms. Vidushi

Persaud, conveyed thanks to both Tamesh and Pavasky Jagmohan.

Persaud expressed her delight at the usual unhesitating support El Dorado Trading continues to give towards building sport shooting in Guyana.

Managing Director of the company, Mr. Tamesh Jagmohan, reiterated his support to the

Federation and said he is happy to be a part of making this an annual match. He noted that as before this is a much anticipated handgun shooting event amongst both veteran

and new pistol shooters alike.

One of the attractions of this particular competition is that the competitors shooting fullpower handguns in the Limited Division will be competing for the privilege of lifting the

El Dorado Trading Steel Challenge Cup. The event challenges the shooters ability to

focus on accuracy but speed is also equally balanced to come out with good scores.

Chair of the Steel Challenge Committee, Dr. Pravesh Harry noted that the El Dorado

Trading Cup is a Challenge Trophy which will be on the prize table at this annual match

held in the month of June to commemorate the Guyana Sport Shooting Federation’s

anniversary.

After every match the winner’s name together with the year will be

inscribed on a plaque attached to the Cup.

In 2015 Ryan McKinnon emerged victorious and as such will have his name etched into

the trophy as winner in that year. He will no doubt be seeking back to back wins and isone to watch out for in the 2016 event.
