NHPA World Horseshoe Tournament

About NHPA World Horseshoe Tournament

The 2023 NHPA World Horseshoe Pitching Championship will be held at the Lansing Center from Monday, July 17th to Saturday, July 29th.

The championships are held once each summer to crown a World Champion in each of eight divisions – Open Men, Open Women, Senior Men, Senior Women, Short-Distance Men, Junior Boys, Junior Girls and Junior Cadets (12-years old and under).

Preliminary competition consists of round-robin class play with all entrants seeded in up to 16-person classes, with the exception of the Cadet Division. Most classes play over the course of three days. At the end of class play, champions are named for each class, with the top qualifiers, based on ringer percentages advancing into the Championship Class of their respective divisions. Sizes of championship
classes are determined by number of entrants in each division.

Championship play in most divisions spans three days, at the end of which, the individual in each championship class posting the best win/loss record is awarded the title of “World Champion” in that division.

The event is open to spectators!
