Team GB shooter Matt Coward-Holley’s bronze medal in the men’s trap at the Tokyo Olympics is an “incredible” achievement, the headmaster of his former school has said.

The Chelmsford-born athlete, now living in Salisbury in Wiltshire, shot 33 of 40 in the final to secure third place, finishing behind the Czech duo of gold medallist Jiri Liptak and silver medallist David Kostelecky.
