A 150th anniversary idea for the Hibernian Community Foundation

A weekly knockout tournament built around the fastest shot in Scottish football — for the fans, for the Foundation, for the 150th.

Chapter 01·The Concept

PowerShot

Film Hibs' men's and women's players in a Fastest Shot Challenge using calibrated, Guinness-approved radar equipment. Release it as a weekly knockout tournament running right through the anniversary campaign.

Fifteen minutes on the training ground becomes months of content, engagement, and fundraising.

Chapter 02·How it works

Three moves. One season.

01
Film

15 minutes. 16 shots.

Eight men's players and eight women's, one calibrated radar, one afternoon on the training ground. Guinness-approved kit, cinematic capture, minimal disruption.

02
Release

Weekly knockout duels.

Each week two players go head-to-head. A short cinematic drop, a countdown, a live radar reading. Content that keeps fans coming back through the whole 150th.

03
Predict

Pick faster. Guess the mph.

Supporters use the Football Wizard web app to call the winner, guess the exact shot speed, climb a live leaderboard and unlock matchday rewards.

Chapter 03·Why it fits

Built for the anniversary.

01
Men's + Women's

One tournament for each — equal billing, equal cinematics, equal stage.

02
Weekly cadence

A drumbeat of content across the whole 150th campaign, not one day of noise.

03
Cinematic

Broadcast-grade capture and edit — the kind of activation the anniversary deserves.

04
Foundation-first

Digital fundraising is woven into the game loop, not bolted on.
