Vasta Champions Volunteers at Queensland Target Sports

Ross Vasta MP, Federal Member for Bonner, has secured funding for the Queensland Target Sports club in Belmont.

Mr Vasta said target sports are a true of test of patience, coordination and focus,  and we are fortunate to have so many talented athletes call Bonner home.

The Member for Bonner visited Queensland Target Sports earlier this month, while volunteers were hosting their school holiday training camp.

“The volunteers at Queensland Target Sports are committed to investing in the next generation, and I applaud their commitment to a sport which is not regularly highlighted,” he said.

“This funding will allow the club to unlock the full potential of their camera coaching analysis system.

I know the delivered funds will be of great value to the entire team.”

Queensland Target Sports Administrator, Mr Rex Wigney said “the system will be used by coaches to view athletes when shooting, and to assist analysis.

“Shooting is a whole of life sport for juniors aged 11 through to active shooters in their 80s, with males and females competing equally.

“For those who are interested, we provide a pathway to represent Australia at Olympic and Paralympic level.”

The volunteers at Queensland Target Sports make an invaluable contribution to our local Bonner community, and Mr Vasta is proud to champion such a dedicated team.
