The Sporting Gun Clubman Competition will be held September 15-16 at the Midland Game Fair, Shropshire.

Celebrating its 30th anniversary, the Clubman is one of the longest-running championships and will again be held at the fantastic Midland Game Fair at Weston Park.

The Clubman continues to recognise and reward unclassified club shooters and those who have never gone higher than ‘B’ Class in any CPSA shooting discipline.

You do not need to be a CPSA or BASC member to enter.

WHO CAN ENTER?
CLUBS
Entrants can be nominated by their club in the relevant individual categories, i.e. Senior, Veteran, Ladies or Junior (non CPSA members or all must be ‘B’ class and below).

The club can then enter those entrants also into the four-man or two-man team events.

Now is the time to start practicing to find your top-scoring individuals for your team. Clubs may of course enter more than one team.

INDIVIDUALS
Entrants who are not members of a club or the CPSA, can enter into the four individual categories, i.e. Senior, Veteran, Ladies or Junior (non CPSA members or all ‘B’ class and below), as well as the two-man teams.

ON THE DAY
Designed by the award-winning team from the Doveridge Shotgun Academy, this year’s Clubman 30 Championship will be a 75-bird English Sporting competition.

There are some fantastic prizes up for grabs and the overall Clubman 30 Champion will win the fantastic Caesar Guerini Challenger 12 Gauge 32 Sporter worth £2,495.

Plus, the Junior Champion can look forward to spending a day with The Great Britain Shooting Team on one of the team training days!

Fibre wad cartridges ONLY.

THE SHOOT-OFF
INDIVIDUALS
Like last year, the highest scoring Senior, Veteran, Lady and Junior after 75 targets (from both days) will not only receive Lylevale Express cartridges, they will also then shoot 25 birds in a head-to-head competition on Sunday on the main Final’s Range for a stunning £1450 Fabarm Elos C12 30” Gauge Sporter donated by Anglo Italian Arms, plus a £250 cash prize donated by the CPSA.

4-MAN TEAMS
The two highest scoring 4-man teams (from both days) will also go into a shoot-off on the Final’s Range.

Previous qualification scores WILL be carried forward and added to the scores from the final shoot-off.

The winning four-man team will be the one with the highest score our of the 400 targets and will receive some fantastic prizes, a Pro-matic Harrier automatic clay trap, a £300 cash prize and training for one member to CPSA safety officer, as well as a fantastic Fabarm XLR5 Composite semi-auto worth £1089 and Musto clothing worth over £1000 for the winning team.
