KEY POINTS:
Shooter Nadine Stanton, who made a brave charge for a medal at the Athens Olympics, has won another chance to make the dais.
The Waikato 32-year-old was yesterday named in the four-strong shooting team for Beijing where she will compete in the women's trap.
Stanton won hearts with her sixth placing in 2004 in the double trap, an event which is no longer on the Olympic programme, forcing her to switch to the single.
She will be joined by Chinese-born New Zealander Yang Wang (men's air pistol), Graeme Eade (men's trap) and Robbie Eastham (men's prone).
Wang, who migrated to New Zealand in 2003 and competed for his adopted country at the 2006 Commonwealth Games, is training with the Chinese Olympic team.
Another athlete, Richard Hearn, was this month unsuccessful in appealing to the Sports Tribunal over his non-nomination in the men's prone. It found that, because there was only room for one spot and that Eastham had scored narrowly higher than Hearn, the selection was correct.
