Nathan Milgate helps Great Britain win a team silver in Croatia
Nathan Milgate from Herne Bay in Kent returned from the recent Disability Target Shooting World Championships held in Croatia with a team silver medal.
Nathan finished 7th in the R3 10m air rifle prone SH1 mixed competition and this combined with Deanna Coates and Matt Skelhon's scores was good enough to win the team silver.
Nathan also had a great performance in the R1 10m air rifle standing SH1 men's competition where he narrowly missed out on the bronze and achieved 4th position.
Head Coach and Team Manager of Disability Target Shooting Great Britain (DTSGB), Pasan Kularatne, said: "The standard of this championship was very high. There were more countries competing in these world championships than in the Beijing Paralympics and there were more people equaling world records as well as more new world records set. The overall scores were also on average higher than in Beijing. With this in mind, we all are very pleased with the results and the performance of all our athletes."
