New head coach for Coley’s

Former World and British Champion Mark Marshall has joined the team at Ian Coley Sporting as chief instructor and shooting school manager.

Mark Marshall will be bringing his formidable experience to the Ian Coley Team.

Well known for setting top-class sporting layouts such as the World Sporting and Beretta World Championships, Mark is intending to add more targets to the already impressive course at the Premier Plus ground.

Mark will also be specialising in clay and game shooting tuition, gun fitting and general business development for the shooting school.

Ian Coley MBE commented: “We’re very excited to have Mark join the team. His expertise in coaching at some of the top shooting schools in the UK and overseas will be a great asset. I’d like to thank departing Chief Instructor Shaun Porter for his hard work in making the ground what it is today.”

In other news, the qualification period for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games has been extended by a month to include a European Olympic Qualification Tournament in May 2020.

Qualification had already been extended once previously to 30 April 2020 to include the Test Event in Tokyo – otherwise the last opportunity to win a quota place in a shotgun event would have been almost a entire year before the Games.
