Highlights of the 2023 tournament Preliminary rounds and Finals

Описание: The World Slingshot Association International and European championships in Gualdo tadino on the 17th and 18th of June 2023.

We began by shooting six preliminary rounds five shots per round on the WSA knock down target system. You could choose to shoot the targets in any order
80mm (2 points)
70mm (4 points)
60mm (6 points)
50mm (8 points)
40mm (10 points)

Followed by 2 rounds of five 40mm targets (10 points) in which you had to shoot from left to right or vice versa leaving any targets you missed and moving onto the next.
This determined the top thirty competitors.
We then shot at five 40mm targets throughout the knock out stages which were added on top of preliminary round scores.
It went top 30, 20, 10, 8, 6, 3 and final 2.
I made the top 30 in 3rd place after a shaky start and settled in nicely to win the international title with Michal Danis 🇨🇿 in 2nd and Oscar Collado 🇪🇸 in 3rd.

Then onto the Euros which reverted back to the top 30 Europeans after the preliminary rounds in which we went through the same knock out stages.
This time Michal Danis coming in 3rd Oscar Collado placing 2nd and I again managed the win.
I have been in disbelief all week.
I knew I was capable of a good score but to win both major events was staggering and a dream come true.
