Jimmy Persson, President of the Swedish Shooting Sport Federation, greeted everyone welcome to Sweden. Opening speech was held by the governor of the county Västmanland.
The opening ceremony was preceded by PET-training on the Stockkumla shooting range. The weather conditions were unfortunately not so good. It was a strong wind, rainy and only a few degrees warm, so some reports came in that it was somewhat difficult to shoot. According to the weather forecast the weather will be better tomorrow when the 50m Running Target Mixed Event competition is on the programme.
The Organizing Committee is happy that the championship now is opened and wants to wish all shooters the best of luck in the competitions!
