November 13 - German shooting star Natascha Hiltrop has picked up the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) Athlete of the Month award for October following her exploits at the IPC Shooting European Championships in Alicante.

The 21-year-old produced a superb performance in the SH1 mixed 10 metre air rifle prone event to take her first European gold ahead of Slovakia's Paralympic champion Veronika Vadovicova and Ukrainian Iurii Stoiev.

Hiltrop's victory was all the more surprising considering that reigning Paralympic champion Cedric Fevre of France and Britain's Matt Skelhon, who was favourite for the event, where also taking part in the competition.

The woman from Bonn was one of six athletes nominated for the October prize, along with fellow shooter and 17-time Paralympic champion Jonas Jacobsson of Sweden, Para-table tennis stars Robert Davies of Britain and China's Pan Feng Feng.

Boccia athlete Witsanu Huadpradit of Thailand and South Korean ice sledge hockey star Seung-Hwan Jung made up the shortlist for the award.

Germany's Natascha Hiltrop produced a superb display of accuracy to take the IPC European Shooting crown in Alicante @IPC

However, Hiltrop came out on top of the public poll earning more than 40 per cent of the votes cast on the IPC website.

The IPC Athlete of the Month nominations are compiled from submissions by National Paralympic Committees (NPCs) and International Federations (IFs).

Hiltrop's performance in Alicante will surely raise expectations that she can secure a home win at next year's IPC Shooting World Championships in Suhl, Germany, which are due to run from July 19 to 26.

SIUS Ascor's Champions Trophy, the 10m competition sponsored by Sius Ascor that closed the 2013 ISSF World Cup Final

11.11.2013

CHAIKA AND YANG WON THE CHAMPIONS TROPHY SPONSORED BY SIUS ASCOR

Only the bests participated in the Champions Trophy, the 10m competition sponsored by Sius Ascor that closed the 2013 ISSF World Cup Final held at the 1972 Olympic Shooting Range of Munich from the 6 to the 11 of November.

The 2013 ISSF Rifle and Pistol World Cup Final has been closed today by the SIUS Ascor's Champions Trophy, the traditional competition that brings the very best athletes of the world cup final on the shooting line for a money price of 5000,00 €.

Only the World Cup Final medallists are eligible to participate in the two Champions Trophy events: the 10m Air Pistol and 10m Air Rifle mixed knock-out round.

How does the Trophy works? After four competition shots, the participant with the lowest score goes out, and from there on, one shot after the other, the shooter with the lowest total has to leave the matchj.

When only two athletes are left on the firing line, the total goes back to zero, and three shots are fired to decide the winner of the Champions Trophy.

The bests Pistol and Rifle shooters will win 5.000,00 Euro each, thanks to the SIUS ASCOR Company, the official ISSF results provider sponsoring the event.

To make everything a bit more interesting, the audience is pushed by the speaker to be “as loud as possible” while cheering and supporting their champions.

It was the Belarusian shooter Vicktoria Chaika who won the Pistol Champions trophy outdoing the reigning Olympic Champion Jin Jongoh of Korea.

The Rifle Champions Trophy finished in favour of Yang Haoran, the 17-year old Chinese shooter who had won the 10m Air Rifle Men final last week. Yang outdid the winner of the 50m Rifle 3 Positions Women event, Italy's Petra Zublasing, who finished just 0.2 behind him in the final duel.
