Piper Benbow is a year nine student at Darfield High school, and was recently selected as a member of the South Island Junior Small Bore Shooting team for the North versus South Island competition. There are competitions throughout the season from March to September with championships from which entrants are given an average on the scores they shoot. “The more you shoot, the better the average,” commented Piper. Each Island has four teams, junior, woman’s, open and veterans. Piper was part of the junior team where she ranked fourth in the South island with an average of 98.0. There are ten people in each team, plus two emergencies. This year the North versus South competition was held in Nelson on August, 18th and 19th. On the Saturday of the competition all teams shot shoulder to shoulder and shot one ten-shot, one twentyshot and then one ten-shot match. The junior side of this competition was won by the

South Island, they beat the North Island 3867.158 to 3853.149. Depending on how well competitors shot in this competition they were eligible for selection to the New Zealand team to compete against Great Britain. Piper was successful in gaining a place on this New Zealand team. The New Zealand - Great Britain competition is a postal shoot and the NZ shoot scores have all been dispatched for comparison and the disclosure of the final results. At this event Piper also received her ‘Pocket’ (Silver Fern) and badges for being a first time New Zealand team member. Small Bore Shooting is conducted with .22 calibre single shot target rifles and is an all year round sport. Both indoor (winter) and outdoor (summer) use the same rifle. Indoor shooting is generally shot at 25 yards with the normal course of fire being either ten or twenty shots, plus sighting shots. Outdoor
