Commenting on the evolution of the team over recent years, Pasan Kularatne, team leader, said: "Disability Target Shooting Great Britain are extremely proud that 12 shooters will be representing ParalympicsGB in London.
"The programme has undergone massive growth in this cycle. While new athletes have been identified and developed into world class competitors, the experienced shooters in the squad have all stepped up their performances," he added.
