Hosting an LMC Championship Match
The Lapua Monarch Cup (LMC) has continued to positively evolve from its inception in 2022. The LMC Board of Directors (LMCB) will be taking further steps to continuously improve our LMC Championship Series in subsequent years.
For example, the LMCB has taken the following (2) actions to enhance the LMC to further fulfill our Vision & Mission Statements:
- Conducting LMC Surveys among LMC attendees from our Mexico, Canada and USA silhouette shooting communities. This feedback will be used to continuously improve our format for LMC Championship Series.
- Formalizing a LMC Match Series Proposal Solicitation process for silhouette clubs that desire to host a future LMC Series Match. Proposal submittals from all interested clubs will be used to select the final locations for the LMC Monarch Cup Series Matches.
For any Mexico, Canada and USA Silhouette Clubs wishing to host a future LMC Series Match, please use the LMC Match Series Proposal Solicitation documents linked below to submit your proposal by OCTOBER 30 of the previous year.
The LMC board will have the final word to approve or disapprove the hosting of a major match.
