SINGAPORE. Singapore's national shooting team are targeting two gold medals at the upcoming Myanmar SEA Games.
They are hoping that this will set the way for a six gold-medal haul two years later -- when the SEA Games come to Singapore.
Twice Olympic trap gold medallist Michael Diamond has come on board to help prepare the local shooters -- including Singapore's top shooter Jasmine Ser.
She will be competing in the 50-metre prone rifle event in Myanmar.
Her pet event, the 10-metre air rifle and clay target shooting, will not be included this year, but Jasmine is looking ahead to 2015.
Jasmine said: "By shooting more prone events, it will actually help me in the 3 P (position) because the 3 P has a prone component too, so it will improve my skills in the 3 P for the next Olympics."
President of the Singapore Shooting Association Michael Vaz said: "I asked Michael (Diamond) to come and help us for 2015 because we don't want to look stupid on our home ground.
“I think we are on the right track, we will do well on our own home ground."
