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

Heading, who won gold at the Delhi games back in 2010, will compete in the men’s trap event.

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.

“It’s my life, everything in my life revolves around shooting, and it’s a fantastic sport to be involved in.”

The Commonwealth Games will begin in Glasgow on July 23
