A warm weekend greeted the 8 squads of ISSF Trap and 3 Squads of ISSF Skeet for the weekend of the Yarra Valley Grand Prix which also acted as the 3rd leg of the Junior selections for Shooting Australia.
Whilst warm and the flies friendly, the breeze did play a few tricks on some of the targets but some great scores were recorded.

Thanks also to the small band of MGC workers who helped the weekend fill traps, side ref and help pack up it was greatly appreciated.
