SIMON GALLEN TO SHOOT IN THE
USA
Simon Gallen, police officer of
fifteen years from Muswellbrook Police Station and associate member
of the NSW Police Council of Sport has once again gained representative
honors when he heads to the USA in August this year to compete in
the World 3D Archery Titles.
Simon has been shooting field archery
since he was young and after a long break returned to the sport
when he was posted to Moonan Flat Police Station six and a half
years ago. There he started an Archery Club (Moonan Archers) and
was responsible for introducing archery into the local school.
After a long absence from the sport
he loves, Simon has won several Australian and State Titles in both
the Australian Bowhunters Association (ABA) and 3D Archery Association
of Australia (3DAAA). He has also won the 3DAAA NSW Titles for the
past two years and the 3DAAA "Shooter of the Year" in
his division last year.
He is very fortunate to receive
sponsorship through Carney Archery Supplies at Cessnock, Abbey Archery
Supplies at Castle Hill and Martin Archery, USA and is very appreciative
of the support given to him by his family, wife Sarah and three
children.
On behalf of the NSW Police Council
of Sport and our members we wish Simon all the very best at the
World 3D Archery Titles, apparently it will be a very tough shoot,
with an expected 7,500 shooters attending from around the world.
Best wishes!
