2021 Clay target shooting World Cup (Cairo): Czech Republic

It’ s a heavy medal deluge for the shooters flanked by Gemini who are currently facing the first edition of the Clay target shooting World Cup. The best skeet and trap performers from around the world are competing on the Egyptian platforms in Cairo during the opening event of a long season that will culminate in the Tokyo 2021 Olympic Games, all this in compliance with the fundamental safety measures for the success of such important contests.

Today we mention Jakub Tomeček and Barbora Sumova for the Czech Republic along with Mairaj Ahmed Khan, Angad Vir Singh Bajwa and Gurjoat Khangura for India, representing the respective nations in the competition and bringing the Gemini chokes onto the Egyptian podium.

Both Czech athletes attained the silver medal in the skeet team championship.
The women's team fielding our Barbora Sumova, Anna Sindelarova and Martina Skalicka, despite the excellent qualification round of the previous day which saw them as undisputed winners, didn’t manage to match such feat finishing second by the score of 6-2 against Russia.
The same fate befell the trio composed of Jakub Tomeček, Milos Slavicek and Tomas Nydrie, second only to the Russian team and beaten in the final by the score of 6-0. A double second place that gives satisfaction, motivation and encourages us to continue along this line, always doing our best!


To complete the men’s skeet team podium the Indian trio fully branded Gemini: Mairaj, Angad and Gurjoat defeated the Kazakhstan team 6-2, thus achieving the bronze medal!


After the gold awarded to Danka Barteková's in women's skeet, the success of our shooters continues. Our most heartfelt congratulations to Jakub, Barbora, Danka, Mairaj, Angad and Gurjoat!
According to the proverb “Well begun is half done” a truly banging year is expected for the whole Gemini sports crew!
