This year’s tour attracted 168 shooters in 11 delegations from Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh city, Vinh Phuc, Hai Phong, Hai Duong, Thanh Hoa, Quang Ninh, Quang Nam, Dak Lak, Military and Ministry of Public Security.
The Military delegation finished first with 15 gold, 18 silver and 11 bronze, following by Hanoi (six gold, seven silver, five bronze) and Ho Chi Minh city (five gold, four silver, three bronze) delegations.
According to Mr Nguyen Duc Uynh, Secretary General of Vietnam Shooting Federation, the tour, although seeing no new national record, was a good chance for the organizing board to review training quality and seek the best competitors for the national shooting squad in future regional, continental and world tours.
The Quang Ninh province delegation sent its best athletes from the provincial Sports Training and Competition Center, gained two bronzes in the men’s air pistol and men’s slow pistol./.
