Held at the Southern Counties Shooting Ground in Dorset, the local pair shot 200 clay targets over two days.

The ground is situated on top of a hill and subject to rapid weather changes and the weekend proved to be no exception.

Overall, Corbin finished third in his class and placed seventh veteran with a total score of 167 while Duquemin (pictured) was fifth in his class and eighth veteran with 152.

The duo will be travelling to Gibraltar to take part in the Olympic Skeet Commonwealth Shooting Federation Championships, which are frequently referred to as the ‘Mini Commonwealth Games’.
