Disciplines
“Something for Every Shooting Enthusiast “
I’d like to try target shooting, what do I do?
The SSAA’s shooting competitions, commonly referred to as ‘disciplines’, are the backbone of the Association and include the use of many types of firearms such as shotguns, pistols and revolvers and rimfire, centrefire, air and black powder rifles, depending on the discipline and competition concerned. Whether you are a pistol shooter or a cannon enthusiast, S.S.A.A. has something of interest to you. There really is something for every shooter.
Check out the disciplines below and contact your local branch for information on the disciplines they cater for. Alternatively check our FAQ for more information on how to get started.
The SSAA has developed rules for shooting events across a range of disciplines, including the SSAA Standard Rules. The SSAA Standard Rules are common to all SSAA disciplines and the current version of the SSAA Standard Rules has precedent over the relevant rules in a SSAA discipline rule book. All current SSAA rule books are available on their respective discipline pages and we encourage members and clubs to download, print and refer to these rule books as needed.
