UKAHFT Series Update - 29.03.2021
After a largely competition free 2020 but with the beginning of a vaccine roll out, we have a light at the end of the HFT tunnel……
All indications are that the Championships will be able to go ahead in September at Weston Park and as previously explained everyone who booked in for the 2020 WHFTC will have their entry transferred.
We are now considering what is possible regarding restarting the UKAHFT Nationals and while there is a degree of guesswork involved, we believe it is reasonable to schedule competitions from July 2021 onwards with 3 double headers, dates we are looking at are:
24th/25th July MAD / MAD
21st/22nd August Furnace / Nomads
23rd/24th October Emley Moor / Emley Moor
For the rounds that are not taking place, shooters that have prepaid will be honoured for the 2022 series
If we are in the happy position of restarting earlier than July you can be assured we will look to do so!
For now watch this space and stay safe.

World Hunter Field Target Association – cancellation of 2020 World Championship at Weston Park.
We regret to announce that we have had to make the decision to cancel this year’s Worlds at Weston Park.
While COVID-19 cases are still declining the virus will still be circulation in the general population for some time or until a vaccine is successfully developed.
If as seems likely we do see a second peak the government would quite possibly close down activities or regions with little or no advanced warning, we also have a significant number of potential competitors who are still shielding or in the at risk category, we do not intend to put these folk at any more risk than they might already be. By giving this length of notice people have time to make other arrangements for September and cancel hotel bookings.
Your booking for the 2020 WHFTA Worlds will be automatically transferred to the 2021 Worlds, as soon as we have confirmed dates in 2021 we will publish them, if anyone cannot make the new dates please notify Pete Sparkes.

Next Event
We are keeping a watch on the Governments Chief Medical Officers advice with regard to CORVID-19, should the UK Governments response move to the Delay stage we would need to postpone or cancel any rounds of the Nationals that were scheduled during this period.
While we may individually feel we are happy with the risk to travel and meet we should also consider the increased potential health risk to wider families on return from such events

The United Kingdom Association for Hunter Field Target was formed in 2002 with the aim to promote HFT in the UK & to run a national series of competitions that are both fun & competitive but most of all Safe.
We also run an affiliation scheme that allows clubs to use the UKAHFT name when advertising shoots which means travelling shooters know what rules/format to expect when attending such an event. More details can be found on our Clubs page. |
