Progressive Position Pistol National Postal Program Competition is Just a Click Away!
USA Shooting (USAS) has announced amendments to the Progressive Position Pistol (PPP) National Postal program to in- crease participation and ease of use. The PPP National Postal Program offers clubs the oppor- tunity to compete against each other without incurring travel costs and other fees. USAS has eliminated the need for registra- tion, a USAS membership and registration fees to encourage greater involvement from clubs across the nation. The PPP National Postal Program will host three postal
matches during 2013. To par- ticipate, clubs simply schedule a club or individual match and complete the 40 shot match be- fore the postmark date indicat- ed in the program. If the Orion scoring system is used, the club administrator sends the data fi le to Orion (no fees involved). Oth- erwise, paper targets are sent to either Orion or Ole Mill Range for scoring depending on the host- ing club’s location. All scores will be posted to the Orion Re- sults page and team/individual medals will be distributed in the mail.
Not only does the program of-
fer increased competition for de- veloping pistol shooters, but now it is cost free to participants—no fees, USAS membership or on- line registration required. Impor- tantly, it affords clubs and shoot- ers the opportunity to compare scores across the country with other individuals and teams. “The PPP National Postal
Program is excellent practice for those interested in competing in the PPP National Champion- ships,” said Youth Programs and Athlete Development Manager Michael Theimer. “USAS is com-
mitted to developing the next generation of champions and the PPP program is one of the best avenues for success in youth pis- tol shooting.” Thanks to the generous contributions of USAS Certi- fi ed Training Center, the Ole Mill Range Shooting Complex and Orion scoring systems, the PPP National Postal Program will pro- vide medals not only for individ- uals but also team competition. Additionally, Orion and the Ole Mill Range Shooting Complex will handle the paper target scor- ing for each of the three postal matches free of charge.
