An ex-Felsted School pupil is heading back to the Olympic Games - looking to add to his medal collection.

Matt Coward-Holley won bronze at the Tokyo 2020 Games and he is one of six shooters selected by the British Olympic Association for Paris 2024.

He will go in the trap event, part of a double GB assault with Nathan Hales.

Seonaid McIntosh, Britain’s most successful female rifle shooter of all time, returns for her second Games after Tokyo, as does Amber Rutter.

She has made it into the squad after giving birth in April.

Hales, Lucy Hall and Michael Bargeron will all make their Olympic debuts.

Team GB chief Mark England said: "We are thrilled to have such an impressive team of shooters representing Team GB in Paris this summer.

"It is brilliant to have Matt, Seonaid and Amber with us for their second Olympic Games, and we welcome Mike, Nathan and Lucy to Team GB, all of whom bring a tremendous wealth of quality into this squad.

“This group of athletes are truly remarkable, both in and out of competition, and we have great confidence they can demonstrate their quality once again in Paris.”

Shooting team leader Steven Seligmann added: "Every athlete should be extremely proud to be heading to Paris. All six continue to go on their own incredible journeys and we are excited to see our team, which is full of potential, perform at the Games.

“This is an exciting group of athletes, and we have immense confidence in all of them.

"They’ve all secured their quota place in their own right, demonstrating significant performances on the world stage and they’re going into the Games in a really strong place."

The shooting competition will start on day one of the full competition, Saturday, July 27, and will run through to August 5.

Coward-Holley, who used to train at the Nuthampstead Shooting Ground, will begin his event on Monday, July 29, with the final a day later.

All 15 different shooting events will take place at the Chateauroux Shooting Centre, 140 miles south of Paris.
