Despite the date change, more than 50 youth participated in the event.<\/p>\n<p>The competition was held for 6- to 17-year-olds; each participant shot five shots in each round. There was a total of five rounds, so each young person had a total of 25 shots.<\/p>\n<p>We would like to thank all the volunteers who helped make this event a success, and we would also like to thank the Chittenango School District for allowing the event take place at their gymnasium. We look forward to next year\u2019s free throw competition, as well as working with St. Pat\u2019s Knights of Columbus again.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>For a full-size color picture, pick up a copy of the Madison County Courier print edition on newsstands Feb. 27 through March 6.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Free Throw Competition Draws Impressive Crowd Submitted Photo Courtesy Matthew Moore Submitted by Matthew Moore (Town of Sullivan, NY &#8211; Feb. 2013) The Town of Sullivan Parks and Recreation and the St. Pat\u2019s Knights of Columbus teamed up once again to host the annual Free Throw Competition.\u00a0 The event was originally scheduled for Feb. 9 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[94],"tags":[4075,14040,21097,21109],"class_list":["post-42734","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sports","tag-chittenango-school-district","tag-matthew-moore","tag-town-of-sullivan-ny-news","tag-town-of-sullivan-parks-and-recreation"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42734","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=42734"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42734\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=42734"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=42734"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=42734"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
