Isle of Man Sport Trap Championship, 8 September 2024
The IOM Sport trap Championship sponsored by Sadler Agricultural Supplies was held at Meary Veg Santon with 23 competitors taking part in dry but very windy conditions, making setting the targets very difficult.
The leader after the first round was Marty Kneen with 22 points, in second place on 21 was Nigel Moffatt with Paul Mihailovits, Jack Kneen and Alan Kinrade in equal third place on 20. Marty Kneen was still in the lead after round two with 44 points, with Moffatt in second place on 43, followed by Mihailovits in third place on 41.
It was all change after round three with Nigel Moffatt taking the lead with 63 points mainly thanks to Marty Kneen only scoring 16 to be in second place on 60, Liam Kirkpatrick was now in third place on 57 points with Paul Mihailovits now in fourth place on 56 followed by Michael Cross and Jack Kneen on 55.
With the wind getting even stronger for the last round it was anybody’s championship. In the junior section Ollie Tobin was the winner with 40 points.
In fifth place on 75 was Michael Cross with Jack Kneen taking fourth place with 76 points, third place went to Liam Kirkpatrick on 79. The runner up was Marty Kneen on 81 points but taking the championship with 82 points was Nigel Moffatt, well done Nigel.
