The Chandy Trophy
The Chandy Trophy is the oldest
parachuting trophy in Great Britain. The trophy was donated to
the club in 1961 by The Chandy Bottling Company through Mike
Pearce, a friend of Doc Robertson who worked for the
company.
From 1961 to 1968 the trophy was awarded jointly to the Open
Champion at the Scottish National Championships and to the
Scottish Champion from the same competition. From 1969 to 1973
the trophy was awarded to the best overall Scottish Competitor at
the British National Championships. When the SSPA formed in 1973
and took over the running of the Scottish Championships, the
trophy eventually returned home.
Originally the trophy was awarded for the overall Individual
Champion in both disciplines of Style and Accuracy. Since the
year 2000, it has been awarded to the winner of the Senior
Individual Accuracy
competition at the Scottish Championships.
