  • Within the festival program of our town. On December 26, Sant Esteve, the popular ham competition was held, as is now traditional. The day began at 9 in the morning, with a lunch for all the members and family of our entity: bread with tomato, a whole ham, drinks and appetizers for all attendees. The participation was 30 athletes and their families. The prizes (not cumulative) of this competition are the following: A ham for the best 10 in the standard modality. A ham for the best 10 in the Thick Caliber modality. A ham for the best 10 in the modality of historical weapons (Avantcarga). A ham for the best 10 in the modality of compressed air pneumatics (Pistol). A ham for the best 10 in the modality of compressed air pneumatics (Carrabina). Each participant can compete in the 5 modalities of him. It should be noted that this very popular test is completely dependent on luck. In each category, prizes are awarded to the best 10 of each target. When an athlete makes the first 10, he can no longer continue shooting on the same target or modality, since the second 10 would disqualify the target. It is curious to see how a very good sportsman cannot win, it can happen that he only shoots once in one of the modalities and, despite scoring a 10, ends up poorly focused and cannot get the prize and instead, a shooter who normally not too good get the best 10 centered in this mode and take the ham. In all modalities you can compete with a maximum of 20 impacts except for historical weapons, which is 13. The winners of each modality were: JOSÉ LUIS ZABAY, ALBA FERNÁNDEZ, JESÚS ARRIBAS, JESÚS JAVIER TELLA, DANIEL VIDAL. At the end of the competition, the shooters who did not get an award entered the draw for 15 consolation prizes and a 6th ham, which in this case went to CARLES GUILLEMAT. One more year this Christmas party competition has been a real success.
