GB Ranking Events and Lists
GB Rankings, list the athletes performances at British Shooting accredited ISSF standard events throughout the domestic and international calendar. The Ranking List is a rolling 12 month performance measure OPEN TO ALL who complete at one of the recognised competitions within the current 12 month period.
The only accredited GB Ranked events for the year 2020 are British Shooting Super League, ISSF World Tour and successful event applications received by British Shooting in accordance to the published selection policy.
From 1 January 2020 onwards, GB Ranking will be based on the average of each athlete fastest 3 times on the 12-month rolling GB Ranking List. These performances will form PART of the international team selection decisions by the Target Sprint Selection Panel.
The Ranking List is one element of the GB Team Selection Criteria and Athlete Masterclass eligibility.
NB. From 1 January 2020, the 49.5mm (National Series) Ranking List will list all age groups, as opposed to just the Youth category.

Leaderships: The GB Target Sprint team will be led by a British Shooting appointed Team Leader and for the Bisley, GBR event also by two Team Supports.
Administration: Entries, travel, accommodation etc. for those athletes selected for the GB team will be coordinated by British Shooting. It should be noted that GB Target Sprint athletes competing do so on a self-funded basis. Upon selection invitation, athletes will be made aware of the estimated financial cost of competing and asked to accept or decline their GB Team selection.
Payment: Following selection acceptance for each event, an invoice will be raised for the estimated cost of the trip. Athletes are asked to pay this within five working days once they are in receipt of the estimated invoice. Once all actual costs are calculated, any additional charges will be invoiced or there is the potential, due to foreign exchange, for a small refund.
A payment plan is also still available, where an athlete’s invoice can be paid over a period of time in instalments. This is to be agreed in writing with British Shooting at the time the athlete accepts their selection.
Public announcement of the GB Team attending will be made by the end of March and end of June 2020 accordingly via the Target Sprint website and social media. And for the WTTS Final, announcement will be made following the WTTS British Open.
Supporters: We at British Shooting recognise that parents/coaches etc. may wish to go to support their athlete(s). In alignment with wider GB Team policy, they will need to organise their own bookings.

2020 International Competitions
Non-GB representation:
There is a growing number of Open International Competition opportunities for Individuals, Hubs and Regional Centres to attend throughout the year.
British Shooting is the sole organisation in the UK with responsibility for selecting GB Teams and for organising representative competitions between nations.
Non-GB representation:
Athletes must ensure when not representing GB, no reference to GB is made or evident, for example the kit they wear and any appearance at the event or on the event entry list start list and results published or otherwise.
It is the responsibility of the person(s) making the competition entry and the athlete, to ensure the Event Organiser makes no reference to GB but does illustrate the Hub, Regional Centre or individual (if required).
Check out our Events Calendar for more information.
