This year, our team members from London, Chester, and North Wales gathered at the magnificent Gyrn Castle in North Wales for an unforgettable experience hosted by E D Sporting. Known for their exceptional simulated game experiences, E D Sporting curated an exciting and novel adventure in clay target shooting on the renowned Gyrn Estate. For many of our team members, this was their first venture into the world of clay shooting, and it proved The timing of our event was serendipitous, as it coincided with the incredible achievement of our very own GB shooter Nathan Hales, who won a gold medal at the Olympics. This added an extra layer of excitement and pride to our experience, inspiring our team to channel their competitive spirit into the day’s activities.
