Black Cats - Ford - Barbarians....Team Challenge
What a day, top weather, top course, top company......Top of the Pops 
Today we held the second HFT Team Challenge event this time at the inviation of the Balck Cats at their glorious grounds near Swindon.
The format is designed such that each team is just that, no individual scores, a chance for everyone to count and team coaching is encouraged.
The format is as simple as we could think of to encourage everyone to contribute and count, with some aspect of a training day thrown in. I think it was well received...any comments are welcome, we can change it for the next challenge.
- Teams of at least 5 (this makes the maths a tad fairer....a team of one would be unfair...as are teams of three 
)
- Those shooting springer/0.22" get a 3 point start
- 30 shot course set however the course setters fancy....in the main to UKAHFT
- The teams can walk the course as a team before the shoot to discuss “tactics”
- Teams shoot as pairs/threes and can coach each other on ranges, wind, technique
- The scores for a team are averaged (team member scores added together divided by number of team shooters)
- No shenanigans like dodgy DNF's
- The winners get to hold the cup, yes there is a cup, until a team beat them in the next challenge
- Team scores only discussed/posted – remember it’s a team event
Anyway, Ford and Barbarians fielded large single teams, Black Cats somehow managed 5, yes 5 teams
The team scores:
Black Cat AAA - 52.0
The Mighty Ford - 51.8
The Rather Photogenic Barbarians - 51.5
Black Cat Dead Meats - 51.3
Black Cat Oily Rag Springers - 46.6
Black Cat UHTU - 43.5
Black Cat PCPS - 41.0
Are there any other teams out there who want to host or take part in the HFT Team Challenge?
Ford will be inviting the Black Cats and Barbarians to take the challenge at Ford some time in the next few months, I will post nearer the time to see if we can add any more fodder
I will link some photos tomorrow.
