Hi I am looking for a list of training games with rules for training air pistol. eg. Tennis shot with 2 people, the person with the best shot get a point, first to 11 with a margin of 2. I have been searching for hours but cant find anything

There are 3 games in Vol2 of Klinger's "Rifle Shooting as a Sport":

Game 1. Each shooter has 10 shots and the 2 with the lowest score are eliminated. This is then repeated with 5 shots per round until a winner emerges.

Game 2. This is the step game. The winner is the shooter who gets to the top step in the lowest number of attempts. Each shooter has to shoot the score (or greater)for each the step. e.g Step1 90 in 10 shots; Step2 46 in 5 shots; Step3 28 in 3 shots; Step4 46 in 5 shots; Step5 47 in 5 shots; Step6 20 in 2 shots
The shooter must try to get the score for aech step at the first try. If they fail to reach it they must take all the shots again. You are not allowed to miss or carry over points. The point required should match the shooters' capabilities

Game 3. Lots are drawn to decide firing points. Then shooters compete as follows: 1 vs 2; 3 vs 4; 5 vs 6; 7 vs 8 etc. The winner of each match is decided by a knockout system. In event of a tie over 10 shots, a further 5 shots are taken immediately afterwards to determine the winner. The game proceeds in the normal knockout manner, 8,4,2,winner.

I am sure that there are more out there.

thanks. I have started using game 2 both in practice on my own and in comp. I more need game for 2 people or sometimes 3. there is only one person in my club at my level and one that is better, the rest just go there to shoot not to compeet

Make your own up for two people. You can do the tennis or base it on cricket. Just have some score element so that shoter a) has to beat shooter b) by some category. if you can try to weigh it on good scores rather than poor scores that will help keep the focus on getting the good techniques (and scores).
