DSGB made a strong start to their first day of competition at the 2015 IPC Shooting World Cup in Szczecin, Poland.

Di Coates kicked off the day by just missing out on the medals, finishing 4th in R2. Australia's Natalie Smith won the event, holding off Slovakia's Veronika Vadivicova.

The pistol squad, made up of Issy Bailey, Stewart Nangle and Roy Carter were collectively impressive in the falling target event. Issy Bailey went to a shoot off in the semi final eventually missing out to Osvaldo Gentili of Argentina. Stewart Nangle and Roy Carter represented DSGB in the final going to a shoot off for the three medal places with Filip Rodzik of Poland. The home nation's man picked up gold with Stewart and Roy taking silver and bronze respectively (pictured).

Action continues on Sunday with P5 and R4.
