Long Sutton’s Aaron Heading has been named in the England shooting squad for the Commonwealth Games.

He is part of an 11-strong English clay target shooting team, bringing the total shooting squad up to 25.

Heading, who also won gold at the World Cup in 2013, said: “It feels amazing, but as always there’s a lot of hard work to do.
