Two medals and Olympic quota place in Italy
Isle of Man Sport Aid support has been vital for shooter Tim Kneale.
His thanks appeared on his Facebook page - this year's funding helped him to buy a new gun.
Since then Tim has enjoyed a strong season including yesterday's success at the World Championships in Italy.
Tim won individual silver, team gold and an Olympic quota place for Great Britain in the Double Trap discipline.
He says his new gun has helped him find top form over the summer:-
