This year’s Beretta World Sporting Championship, the UK’s largest Sporting competition, boasts a stunning prize fund of £21,000.

Prizes will be awarded to the top ten shooters in each class and the ladies, juniors and veterans categories will receive prizes down to third place.

This year’s event is on July 1-3 at Meon Springs Fly Fishery in Hampshire.

Highly respected course planners, Bob Clarke and Peter Corney have worked hard to ensure this year’s course exceeds all expectations.

The meticulously designed layout has been carefully created to be challenging and innovative; stretching the able shooter without embarrassing the less experienced shot.

Back by popular demand will be towers and targets shot over water and through tree openings.

The event also welcomes a new sponsor – The King’s Ginger – who are providing prizes and running post event tastings.

Shooters can enter the competition online at www.berettaworld.co.uk or can call 01489 579999 for an entry form.

The closing date for entries is Friday, June 24.
