Our league programme comprises competitions run in many different disciplines for both individuals and club teams of 3 and all are run in both Summer and Winter seasons unless specified.
Please note that our leagues are NOT locally-scored and all shot targets must be sent to our scorers for scoring.
Clubs from any part of the United Kingdom (or anywhere else if they use the right targets) are welcome to join in. There is no affiliation fee – all you pay are the entry fees which are currently £4 per individual and £12 per team of 3. Senior and Junior individual competitions are run concurrently with any of our leagues if there are sufficient entries.
If you would like further details or to request an entry form, please use the ‘Contact us’ link above to get in touch. Summer season entry forms become available in early February and the Winter season forms become available in early August.

Electronic targets approved by and registered with the NSRA may be used in any of the prone rifle iron sights and deliberate 10m air competitions as well as the 10m Rapid Fire Air Pistol competition if the equipment is designed for it (e.g. SQ10).
