TMRC Trophy Presentation and AGM

Report by Peter Munro – Club Competition Coordinator

The morning shoot was contested by 14 club members in fairly benign conditions. John Farmer shot an excellent 119.14 off rifle. After converting all scores to our MCSI system John also won the Off rifle and handicap.
After the shoot, the 2019 trophy presentation was conducted by TMRC Club Captain, Bob Hawkins, and long time Club Patron, Les Tyrell. The club greatly appreciated Les and Pat Tyrell joining club members on this important occasion.
The presentation was followed by the club’s traditional presentation lunch which was catered for by our every reliable club chef, Lisa. Members enjoyed an excellent spread of Asian delicacies supplemented by refreshments.
The AGM was held on completion of lunch and all club positions were filled. Bob Hawkins was re-elected for his 28th term as Club Captain – must be getting close to breaking records for such an achievement.
