Michael Maskell (sport shooter)

Michael John Maskell (born November 24, 1966, in Bridgetown) is a Barbadian sport shooter.

[2][3] Twelve years after competing in his first Olympics, Maskell qualified for his fourth Barbadian team, as a 37-year-old, in men's skeet shooting at the 2004 Summer Olympics held in Athens by receiving a wild card place from ISSF through a re-allocation of unused quota.

[2] Building his own milestone as a four-time Olympian, Maskell was appointed by the Barbados Olympic Association to carry the nation's flag in the opening ceremony.

[4] After finishing twenty-fifth in Barcelona (1992) for mixed skeet, forty-ninth in Atlanta (1996), and twenty-third in Sydney (2000), his highest ever placement, Maskell did not improve his standard in the same program, as he hit a total of 117 targets to share a thirty-first-place finish with Chile's Jorge Atalah and Germany's Axel Wegner.
