Entries are invited for the {\bf Trinity Top Ten 2000} 50m Postal

\colorbox{mygrey}{\bf \large Rules}

\begin{itemize}
\item This is an open competition shot outdoors at 50m. Each round consists of 20 shots (one card) fired during a twenty-minute detail. 
\item A shooter may shoot for one club only.
\item Teams are of four members with one substitute, who may be a member of a lower team from the same club. 
\item Teams must be prenominated on the entry forms.
\item A round is prenominated by placing the appropriate sticker behind the bull of the first target. 
\item Team scores are the sum of the scores by the individuals on that team for that round.
\item Only one sticker per card of 20 shots.
\item The shooter should write his or her name clearly on the front of the target together with their entry number and the round number as obtained from the sticker.
\item If the card is shot concurrently with another competition in the NSRA, UCSSA or NTSA calendars, the card must still be prenominated in the usual way and the card should be forwarded in the normal manner.
\item The coordinator will accept no responsibility for cards given to other D.U.R.C. members at shoots.
\end{itemize}

{\bf Note that not complying with the above will lead to a penalty of one point (not gunscore) from that round.}

\colorbox{mygrey}{\bf \large Scoring}

Each round is scored (points ex200). The entrants are then ranked in order on the basis of their score in that round. Points are awarded as follows.
The individual with the highest gunscore will recieve the same number of points as there are entrants, the next placed shooted will receive one less and so on down. The cumulative sum of your points from the ten rounds will determine your overall placing. 
Teams will be scored in the same manner.
