With the 2019 shooting season now over and sponsorship confirmed for 2020, it’s celebrations all round for new British Champion, 16-year-old Mitchell Brooker-Smith, after taking first place in the Olympic Skeet junior men at the British Shooting Grand final in North Wales.
Sponsorship from Redditch family business Oakland International will cover the cost of Mitchell’s gun cartridges, competition fees and funding for his GB kit and his plans for next year include pushing himself even further by competing against the top senior shooters in addition to shooting for Great Britain as a junior and focusing on a win at the Junior World Championships in Suhl, Germany.
Said Mitchell: “I’m extremely grateful for the support and sponsorship from Oakland International. It’s great knowing that there are people who care about my shooting progression and future besides my family and friends.”
