Welcome to the permanent home of the Newfoundland & Labrador Shooting Association and the Frank Zahn High Performance Marksmanship and Canadian Sport Centre Atlantic Training Facility!

The Newfoundland & Labrador Shooting Association is the provincial sport governing body for Olympic shooting sports in Newfoundland & Labrador. The association is responsible for the development of athletes, development of coaches, promotion of precision shooting sports and for the selection of Canada Games teams within the province of Newfoundland & Labrador, Canada.

The Frank Zahn High Performance Marksmanship and Canadian Sport Centre Atlantic Training Facility is the center of excellence for athlete and coach development in Newfoundland & Labrador and is Atlantic Canada's first and only Shooting Federation of Canada sanctioned regional training center for the Olympic shooting sports. The training facility is a result of partnerships between the Newfoundland & Labrador Shooting Association, Shooting Federation of Canada, Canadian Sport Center Atlantic, Memorial University of Newfoundland and Sport Newfoundland & Labrador.

The International Olympic Committee recognizes the International Shooting Sport Federation as the official governing body for precision shooting sports and for providing rules and regulations to govern competition. These are the rules and regulations that we follow in training athletes, coaches and officials. The sport is open to men, women, young, old and disabled athletes, and has many disciplines including pistol, rifle and shotgun, all of varying calibers.

Paradoxically Olympic Shooting is a gentle sport requiring the fitness, balance and poise of a gymnast combined with the concentration of a chess master. Olympic shooting is one of the safest sports; with athletes largely remaining free of the sports injuries, particularly those that can be associated with hockey, rugby, soccer and even running. The abuse of performance enhancing drugs is also very rare within the sport.
