    National Small-bore Rifle Association Notes from meeting of Shooting Council on 17 th November 2007 These are notes supplied by Brian Woodall, Acting NSRA Secretary. Mick Gault Mick Gault continues to gather awards recognising his successes. In October he was crowned Sports Personality of the Year at the inaugural Norfolk Sports Awards and received his award from Dame Kelly Holmes. Following on from this award, in November he was invited to the BBC Regional Sports Awards for the Eastern Region where he received a Lifetime Achievement Award. In a nice touch the presentation was made by Karen Pickering, the former English swimmer from whom he took the record for the most Commonwealth Games medals. National Rifle Meeting The number of competitors entered for the August Rifle Meeting was down by one to 962 but the number of competition entries dropped from 10705 in 2006 to 10143. The most notable event at the Meeting was Michelle Smith's victory in the Earl Roberts Championship. In 2006 Michelle finished as runner-up to Keith Ridgway, the latest of a number of women to have taken second place over the last 20 years but in 2007, after 84 years of the competition, she became the first woman to lift the cup. It has to be recorded that this was no skin-of-the-teeth job. 1989 was the first year in which the current design of targets was used. Over the 19 years only one person has equalled Michelle's score of 786 ex 800, and only three have beaten it, David Phelps (787 in 2001), John Oliphant (788 in 1993) and Malcolm Cooper (790 in 1989).
