Have you entered the Hopton, then you’ll want to enter the Hopton Knockout.
The Hopton Knockout is a knock-out competition across the individual shoots of the Hopton at the 2022 Imperial Meeting. It is a handicapped draw so everyone is in with a chance. Top prize is £200. Unlike most shooting competitions you can enter more than once, indeed it is encouraged. All proceeds from the Hopton Knockout will go towards supporting the GB Match Rifle Team’s tour to Stawell to compete in The Woomera. To enter please talk to any member of the Woomera Team or at gbmatchrifle@gmail.com.
Full Details of the Hopton Knockout
A handicap system, based on average of the best 2 positions in the Hopton over the past 3 years, ensures that everyone has a fair chance of winning. Note that, with the handicap added to your score, scores above the maximum for the shoot are possible! The below pdf shows which handicap group everyone is in. Highlighted positions have been adjusted to allow for incomplete scores.
Multiple entries are permitted and make each entry cheaper:
- £2.50 for one entry
- £5 for 3 entries (one free)
- £10 for 8 entries (4 free)
- £20 for 20 entries (12 free)
The more entries you have, the better the chances of at least one of them making it through to the semi-final and the cash prizes!
