NRA Board of Directors Remove Membership Requirements for all NRA Competitive Shooting Activities.
Action was taken by the NRA Board of Directors to remove the membership requirement to compete in NRA tournaments. This action was taken to open all NRA tournaments to members of all shooting organizations worldwide and the shooting public. NRA rules will change for Competitive Shooting and Law Enforcement Activities Divisions sanctioned tournaments including State Championships, Regional Tournaments, and National Championships. Effective date of this change is July 1, 2008.
This decision will enable more people to participate in NRA tournaments and will increase the opportunity for added membership as people become involved in NRA competitive shooting activities.
Starting July 1, 2008 match sponsors will no longer be required to ask for proof of NRA membership for NRA Registered tournaments.
On July 1, 2008 NRA rule changes will be made to all NRA online rule books (http://www.nrahq.org/compete/nra-rule-books.asp) to reflect the many areas in the rule books related to membership requirements.
Changes will also be posted on the Rule Changes page at http://www.nrahq.org/compete/rulechanges.asp
Competitors will still need to be an NRA member to set a NRA National Record.
