    Accommodation

    Hamilton Pistol Club is located directly across the road from Hamilton International Airport, and the recommended match accommodation, Hamilton Airport Motor Inn, is located just inside the airport entrance. It is literally a 5 minute walk from the pistol club. A variety of rooms have been pre-booked for National Teams and administration staff, but there are still a large number of executive and standard studio units available which comfortably sleep up to 3 adults.

    For contact details or to book accommodation go to www.airportinn.co.nz. It is important to mention that you are part of the "Pistol Champs" when arranging accommodation, as all rooms from the day before the first practice day (Oct 31) through to the day after the prize giving dinner (Nov 9) are reserved exclusively for the World Action Pistol Championships.
