Sounds like you're proposing a league; if so, answer is yes.

50 foot indoor ranges do not require turning targets for leagues/approved tournaments

The Match Director can't complete. Get someone in the club who isn't shooting to perform that function

the thaught was members of club few would help out one week then shoot

next time

the NRA has the rule books posted and they have most of the info you asked about.

you can also go here to set up your matches http://www.nrahq.org/compete/tournaments/

have fun...BTW there is a Bullseye section on TargetTalk

went to that page 1st then still had questions

new to bulleye shooting wanted to get info befor talking to others about it at

range

thank you

There is a 56 page "Tournament Operations Guide" on the NRA website that you can access online. It should answer your questions if you use it in conjunction with the appropriate rule book. You can access this information by going to www.nra.org and following the links, beginning with "Competitions".

I am a match director in Southern California. The match director CAN compete in an approved match. The only person who can't compete is the "tournament supervisor". Put down the name of somebody in the club who's never going to have anything to do with the match.

Try running a few non-sanctioned matches first, before going through the hassle of NRA paperwork.
