Events

Scottish Heavy Events: Braemar & Open Stone, Heavy & Light Wweight for Distance, Heavy & Light Hammer, WOB, Sheaf, and Caber will be contested this year for the usual QC games prizes of engraved daggers for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place in each division. 

Challenge Events

To get those who travel on the road sooner, we allow the flights to flow through the events at their own pace rather than using a fixed time schedule.  This usually shortens the day on the athletic field and leaves some of our paying audience disappointed if not angry.

To provide a full day of athletic entertainment while still allowing some to leave after their flight ends, at least one and maybe two challenge events will be used to entertain the crowd after the Scottish Heavy events are completed.  

Prize for each division of each challenge event will be an engraved stone. 

  •  Sheaf for Distance World Championship. 
    (throwing challenge)
    The QC games is proud to host this dignified event.  Both Men's and Women's divisions will be pursing this prestigious championship.  Pro and amateur Sheaf for Distance throwers from around the world (or at least in the midwest) are expected to contest for this highly sought after championship. 

    Three Divisions will be contested for the engraved Caber Stone prize - Mens, Womens, and the combined Lightweight/Masters

Note: This is a Sheaf for Distance Federation (SFDF) sanctioned event and all SFDF rules will be followed.

Keg toss for distance, keg toss for height, or Farmers walk are being considered for the other challenge event: 


Other Prizes

  • "Best" Throwing Couple of the Day:
    We will be giving an engraved stone away to the couple with the lowest combined place points. Women's division is off this year so the number of couples are off but I plan to continue giving this Award

 
 

  • Highest Standing WOB Throw Prize:  There will be an extra prize given for the highest standing WOB throw.  To qualify, you cannot spin for any of the WOB throws.  A total of three prizes will be given out, one for each weight used in WOB (56#, 42#, & 28#) rather than one for each division.
