It has come to our attention that a group calling itself the GRPAI has announced on its website that it is the National Governing Body for gallery rifle and pistol shooting in Ireland. As you know, your organisation, the NASRPC, is the National Governing body for this sport in Ireland and is a member of the IGRF.
We will resist any attempt by any other group to usurp our position. Four members of the International team are members of our committee and know nothing of this group calling itself the GRPAI.
The committee will be writing to the IGRF tomorrow to advise them of the above.
