Knights of Columbus free throw contest winners

 

March 11, 2022



Each year the Knights of Columbus sponsors a free throw contest for girls and boys ages 9 through 14. The contest takes place in multiple steps. The first step is the council competition in which contestants shoot 15 free throws in a row. Depending on their age and sex, each contestant shoots with a girls or boys ball from either 12 feet or 15 feet.

The next step is a district contest where the council winners compete against shooters from other councils in the immediate area. This time each shooter shoots 25 free throws in a row.
