Spirit of the Game – It is not possible to create an online event where participants don’t find ways to “game the system”. This contest is designed to test your knowledge of the specific subject matter – not how well you Google answers. Scoring will be determined by the time it takes you to complete the Quiz and the number of correct answers. Please honor the Spirit of the Game and be respectful of your fellow competitors that are doing the same.

The Mail-In Tournament offers youth (Jr., Int., Sr.) the opportunity to participate in a club based, healthy, competitive environment. The Mail-In Tournament is the qualifying mechanism for the State 4-H Shooting Sports Contest.

Leadership for the Mail-in Tournament is provided by Todd Williver.
