Target Rifle Victoria

Target Rifle Victoria is the governing body for small-bore and air rifle shooting in Victoria. If you have never tried out the sport we encourage you to find out more about what the sport can offer you - friendship, a chance to compete equally, and the opportunity to participate in events across the state.

We are affiliated with our national body, Target Rifle Australia, and you can therefore compete at events interstate. For those with even more ambition, our affiliation through the Australian International Shooting Limited provides a pathway to the Olympic and Commonwealth Games.

Clubs could apply for things such as:

• Any sort of special welcome kit for the Ladies that the club puts together
• SCATT training systems

You will not be able to apply for rifles or ammunition.
