Participants indicated that fundraising is still high on the group’s agenda and it was agreed
that this was an area that the group could pursue. NS indicated to the meeting that the
best approach for the group was to liaise with TRA Ltd Member Bodies to facilitate
greater integration of the discipline into State organisations and subsequently into the
TRA National organisation.

There is to be no change to the selection policy for the 2019 World Championships
however a new selection policy will be developed for future events and published through
networks. NS will continue to liaise with the RBA discipline group to
progress this matter further.

Report from Shooting Australia Annual General Meeting and Members Forum
The Members Forum following the meeting went for 1hr 45min instead of the 1hr
originally allocated. Shooting Australia Board Member Catherine Clark spoke about
government support and noted that there were 160 sports vying for this support.
Bruce Scott spoke about participation across all disciplines.

Catherine Fettell commented on the events that were being replaced in the Olympic
Shooting Program and the effect on their inclusion at World Cups and Championships.

TRA Website
NS reported that the updated TRA Ltd. Website went live on (4/10/2017). The website
was updated to be more compatible with mobile devices approximately 1 month ago.
Further technical updates are being made to ensure security is maintained at appropriate
levels. EO suggested that there should be a paragraph or section displayed prominently on
the website indicating how to join TRA Ltd through their local club and State Association
as he had received a number of queries from individuals regarding this. NS will liaise with
Corner Stone Web Systems on this matter.

TRA Membership:
Directors discussed means of increasing TRA Ltd. Membership. Highlighting the benefits of
TRA membership is extremely important and examples such as the article in the September
2017 edition of the TRA E-magazine written by Tricia Van Nus and inclusion of these benefits
in the starter pack for new members were seen as ways this may be achieved.

Next meeting will be held in March 2018

AND/OR TECHNICAL OFFICIALS COURSES IN 2018?
