ELIGIBILITY:            This competition is open to all competitors born in 1990 or later.  All competitors must be individual members of USA Shooting.

 

RESIDENCE:              Each competitor may claim residence in only one state and must declare the state of residence on the entry form.  Residents are eligible for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place USA Shooting State Champion medallions.  Non-residents may compete for automatic and at-large invitations to the National Championship and are encouraged to do so.

 

STATE RESIDENT      USA Shooting will issue official invitations to the National Junior Olympic

QUALIFIERS:            Shooting Championships (NJOSC) for the high scoring male and high

                                    scoring female resident from each State JOSC, provided they fire a minimum qualifying score.  Resident collegiate and/or military competitors are eligible for the state resident champion awards and are also eligible for resident state qualifier invitations.

 

ENTRY:                       Shooters may not compete in more than one state JOSC.  Juniors who fire in their own home state JOSC will not be allowed to shoot in another state.  Juniors from states which are not holding a state JOSC and those who cannot attend their own state JOSC will be allowed to enter the automatic/at-large division in another state.  At entry, non-resident juniors must declare that they are shooting for an at-large/automatic invitation. 

Residents may choose to enter the Automatic/At-large category instead of the Resident Qualifier category if they are confident they can shoot above the automatic score and secure an invitation.  This would allow another competitor to receive the State Qualifier invitation.

A.    Resident Qualifier – Competitors shooting in their declared state of permanent residency.  Competitors in this category are eligible to be the state resident qualifier to the National JOSC. 

B.    Automatic/At Large – Competitors shooting in other than their declared state of residency are eligible for at-large/automatic invitations to the National JOSC.
