Even during this time , our members, Darius Marshall  and Sri. Ajay James kept the Club flag flying high, by winning medals at the National level.

The activities of the Association slowed down  during this period with weekly practice meets becoming irregular and attendance dropping . Annual District Meets and AGMs were also not be conducted regularly.  But, even during these difficult times, we could organize two State Championships – one from 1st – 3rd November 1998 and 2nd from 12th to 13th May 2001 due to the efforts taken by the then State Rifle Association Vice President and our member Sri.Jose Joseph..

Club General Body Meeting was finally convened after a gap of 8 years on 6th October 2004.  A new set of office bearers took over the reins  of the Association with Sri.Jose Joseph as Hony. Secretary , Sri.M.K.Harindranath as  Treasurer  and Sri.Jacob George Kynadi as Quarter Master.  Sri. Darius Marshall continued to be the IIIrd Vice President.  The activities of the Association became vibrant with the inclusion of large number of student members.  Weekly practice meets became more regular and attendance and involvement of members also improved considerably. 

Due to the active involvement of Executive Committee member Sr.V.B.Karunakaran
and Smt.Alphonsa Mathew, an NCC officer, who joined in 2006, a large number of youngsters   joined the Association as Student Members.  Annual District Meets became regular and active. Summer Coaching camp for students became a  regular feature   due to interest shown by the then  District Collector  & our President Sri. Jayathilak IAS,  who was also a keen shooter.

Darius Marshall  continued to bring honours  to the Association, by winning medals at the State & National levels.

26.61 cents of road facing land was taken back by the Government  from us during this time for the construction of the Vigilance and  Anticorruption office building .  The lease of our range land had expired in 2003 and we had difficulty in getting it renewed. But, due to the bold stand taken by our President Sri. Jayathilak IAS, we were able to pay the  lease rent on an yearly basis.

At the General Body Meeting on 3rd March 2008, Bye laws of the Association were amended to be in par with the directions of the State Sports Council  and terms of office of elected office bearers were made 4 years,  Two new category of members, namely Donors and Hony.

Member.  The regular presence of Sri.V.B.Karunakaran and Sri.P.K.Sajeevan at the range   enthused the young shooters and their shooting standards increased considerably.  Young shooters like Jerin James, Merin James, Ann Tresa, Aiswarya G.M, Akhil C.P and Elizebeth O.M went on to win medals at the State and National level.  The Association became very active during this period as can be seen from the reports of the AGM’s annexed hereto.
