2025 Smallbore Roberts Team Tryouts, Goodwill Randle Team

This year during the National Smallbore Rifle Championships, there will be tryouts for the Roberts Team that will travel to England in 2025. Plus, there will be the formation of the Goodwill Randle Team headed to England next year, too. For the Goodwill Randle team, no tryout is necessary—just any Randle alumnae who are interested.

Camp Atterbury Lodging Information

Camp Atterbury lodging has been open to competitors since December 2023. However, Camp Atterbury has been experiencing unfortunate network connectivity issues, with inoperative phone lines and intermittent email access. Thus, all 2024 reservation requests at Camp Atterbury for NRA shooters must be done via email at [email protected].

The request email must include competitor names, requested arrival and departure dates, whether you want a deluxe or standard room, along with a contact phone number.

Once the request is received, Camp Atterbury housing staff will check availability and call you back. This phone call will serve as your lodging confirmation.

NRA National Matches Online Registration

To register for the 2024 NRA National Matches at Camp Atterbury, go to the NRA’s online competitor portal at competitor.nra.org on or after Thursday, February 29.

Pistol shooter
For this year’s National Matches, NRA Competitive Shooting Division staff consolidated some of the match days to make attendance easier for shooters.

 

Additionally, several spots are still available for the 2024 NRA World Shooting Championship, presented by Walther, which will also take place at Camp Atterbury, Indiana, April 3-6. The competition—well-known for its unique mix with pistol, rifle, shotgun and multi-gun disciplines—will be making its Camp Atterbury debut after a five-year hiatus. All firearms and ammunition are provided to amateur and professional competitors at this match, which this year boasts a $250,000 total prize purse.
