US Palma Team Selection

US Palma Team Announcement

Greetings to all. It is my distinct honor and pleasure to announce the US Palma Team for New Zealand 2019. This selection was hard fought all the way to the end, and I sincerely appreciate the effort and commitment of all members if the US National team in his or her attempt to make the team. A heartfelt thanks to all, and a warm congratulations to those listed below.

Captain: Norm Anderson
Adjutant: Ray Raymond Gross
Main Coach: Lane Buxton
Line Coach: Steve Hardin
Line Coach: Kent Reeve
Line Coach: Emil Praslick
Line Coach: Gary Rasmussen
Shooters, armorer and alternates (in no particular order):
Brandon Green, Ben Cleland, John Whidden, Nate Guernsey,
Oliver Milanovic, Erik Rhode, Amanda Elsenboss, Keith Hoverstad,Trudie Fay, Justin Skaret, Kevin Nevius, John Field, David Littlefield, Morgen Dietrich, Kerry Spurgin, Dan Altman,
Adrian Harris, Brian Mrnak, Mark Del Cotto, Stuart D. Mackey
Understanding that we are only allowed to put 26 on the team card and with 27 names listed, one will not be selected, however I will provide support to the names above for consideration to the actual team when in New Zealand. Also, just so there are no surprises, some names may be used in different roles than listed above.
Once again, congratulations to all and thank you again to everyone!!

Very best regards,

Norman Anderson

Congratulations!

What's the best way for the rest of us to keep track of what's going on in NZ 2019? Is there any chance it might be televised?

I highly doubt it’ll be televised! There’s not a lot of concentrated, visual action to this sport. It’s NOT like NASCAR or baseball, after all.

BUT the NZ club is quite good at posting each day’s results to the web so that’s one option.

Depending on how things go for the participants (US Teams: Under 25, Palma and Veterans) we ought to be able to look forward to comments posted here, on Mia Rhode’s Life of a Shooters Wife, and even on Facebook I suspect.

Good ideas, thank you. I wonder if there would be a way to broadcast the banter between coaches and shooters... that could be pretty interesting. Get some shots of flag movement, and if the weather's right, catch some vapor trails too! I'd watch that.
 
Who is Erik Rhode????

I know who he is. I am looking for a new way to troll him. It is a new sport for me.:)

That is a really good group of shooters and coaches.

I think he's some hack from way up north; Minnesota or Sakatchewan or something? I heard that he totally faked his way onto the roster.
