Three Wairarapa shooters will be part of North Island teams contesting the national smallbore rifle championships in Nelson next weekend.
Included in the North Island open team is Neil Harris and his wife, Ann Harris, has been selected for the women's squad.
In the junior side is Dean Phillips, who lives in Dannevirke but has been shooting locally while attending the Taratahi Agricultural Training Centre.
All three are members of the Masterton Smallbore Rifle Club and each of them has represented North Island and New Zealand in the past.
The top 20 Kiwis in the open competition along with the top 12 in the women's division and the top 10 in the junior grade will represent their country on Sunday against England.
