Are there any local shooting teams?

Post by BigRiverGunServices »

I am curious if there are any local competition shooting teams or clubs in the Albemarle, Augusta, Rockbridge, Bath, Rockingham county area. If so can you post some information on them and locations. If not is there much interest in joining or creating a pistol competition shooting team or club?

I'm not sure Rivanna has "teams", as such. The various shooting disciplines are mainly individual in nature, other than squadding during competitions I don't know of any that are team-based (I do not know how the shotgunners run their things, though).

You're probably correct.
I misread/misunderstood the original post.
My bad. :doh:
