Nominees 

Thomas Croucher Connor Davies Archie Gale

What an honour to be nominated for Rising Star. A huge thank you to everyone who put my name forward for this. I’ve had some massive achievements over the season including British Titles and a Colt World Champion Sportrap Title along with 22 podium finishes.

A huge thank you to all my sponsors, Tall Oaks Contractors, Instructor_Max, Swatcom and Clayclo. Without the help of these amazing people, none of this would be possible.

Finally, I’d like to thank my Parents for all their support throughout.

If you feel I have done enough, I would really appreciate your vote.

Thank you.

My highlights over the last 12 months are shooting for Team GB COMPAK twice, taking Junior Team Silver (France) and Junior Team Gold (Spain). Signing with Caesar Guerini for the next 3 years. Colts high gun for English Open Skeet Championship, West Midlands Area Skeet Championship, British Open Skeet and Sportrap, Coley Classic, The Pro One Challenge and more! Along with shooting 100/100 in skeet twice as well as overall high gun shooting 95/100 at Westfield’s. 

This year, I have worked really hard across a range of disciplines, achieving some incredible results in my first year competing, including:

Colts Bronze – English Open Super Sporting

B Class Gold – Eaton Hall Sportrap Challenge

Colts & B Class Bronze – Sovereign Challenge.

Qualification - British Open Finals

Junior Gold – Staffordshire FITASC

Junior Gold – Staffordshire Super Sporting

Junior Champion – National Inter-County A/B

At just 15, this sport has already given me so much: discipline, confidence, self-belief, and amazing new friends. I love getting out there, encouraging others, learning and improving every day – but most of all, I just love shooting!
