Malta skeet shooters just miss out on medal at Baku World Cup

The Maltese shooters competing at the ISSF World Cup, being held in Baku, Azerbaijan, finished their Skeet Team Men Event on a bitter-sweet note, when they lost the Bronze Medal Match to a the much-experienced Kuwait team with a score of 6 points to 2 on Sunday.

In the qualification stages, Marlon Attard, Clive Farrugia and Marcello Attard hit 210 out of 225 targets.

This result put Team Malta on a tiebreaker with the home team of Azerbaijan and the Czech Republic.

In the three-way shoot-off, the team from Azerbaijan was eliminated with +2 targets leaving the Czechs and Maltese competing in the sudden-death tie.

This saw Team Malta coming out on top with +12 hit targets against +11 hit targets of the Czech Team.

Although the Bronze Medal was not won, the Maltese shooters achieved a lot from this event as they gave a worthy performance.

The Skeet Team has been under the supervision of coach Bruno Gubellini since February.
