UKAHFT Series Update
Following the latest government advise and the best guess of what is the likely shape of the future guidance we have taken the view that round 5 and 6 at MAD cannot go ahead as a UKAHFT double header and as such the 2020 UKAHFT season is therefore no longer viable as a season.
We await to see if the Worlds will go ahead and will advise on this by mid-August.
Clubs are able to arrange local competitions allowing for the restrictions on social distancing and hygiene but clearly events with over a hundred competitors on site and requiring significant numbers of hotel rooms in the locality are still not possible.
Should the situation start to unlock UKAHFT would be keen to work with hosting clubs to arrange some one-off events this year such as a UK open and would publish more news as these become available.
We look forward to normal service being resumed in 2021.

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. |
