COMITÉ DÉPARTEMENTAL DES JEUX DE SARBACANE DE LA LOIRE

Tir is an ancestral etienne tradition whose origin remains mysterious… Amateurs of unusual sports, if you have a breath and precision to resell, do not hesitate to discover this playful activity, little media but accessible from the earliest age. The game includes rather small, but tiring and often personal equipment, where popular art pieces are not uncommon. The shooter carries out 8 volées of two strokes to add a maximum of points. By team, we add the top three scores of each association. The firing distance is 8,15 m, the height of the target is 1,33 m. In the Loire, several clubs are engaged in this discipline (the departmental committee will give you all the useful addresses in this respect!) and the initiation is also proposed in some schools in Saint-Etienne. For confirmed tireurs, an annual contest takes place each year.
