Tom started shooting with the Air Training Corps at the tender age of 13, initially very unsuccessful but with persistence and training he improved enough to gain a place on the 2006 Athelings team for his first overseas tour. Since 2006, Tom has toured a further eight times to countries such as Australia, South Africa, USA and the Channel Islands where he has represented GB Under 19, GB Under 25, GB and England. Tom’s notable successes to date include finishing in the Top 50 of the Grand Aggregate at Bisley and South Africa and winning the Gurkha Appeal with his first ever 75.15. Tom plans to build on the success of 2015-17 where he completed the ‘Big 5’ and hope the invaluable experience he gained will lead to an even stronger performance in the 2019 Palma match. Away from shooting Tom works as a Finance manager in London and in his spare time enjoys watching and playing football and hitting the gym.
