Having attempted the England & GB selection shoots this for FITASC & Compak, I got the chance to talk to a few existing team members and also some of the old guard. One topic discussed was the apparent lack of respect for an England or GB Team place and some of them were of the opinion that no one really cares too much about getting in to the team or cares too much about people who have made the team.
Got me thinking whether this was actually the case or if it was only apparent in FITASC, be interested to know how Ed Solomons feels about shooting for the England Sporting team for instance or anyone who shoots other disciplines for England or GB. If a shooter turns up to a shoot wearing their GB shooting vest would they be ridiculed behind their backs?
Just interested to see what the general opinion was/is, for me it would be the pinnacle of my shooting to make the England or GB team especially in fitasc.
