U.S. Olympic Shotgun Team Selection Procedure Finalized
USA Shooting and the U.S. Olympic Committee have completed the procedures for the selection of the 2012 Olympic Shotgun Team. The official document outlines the details of the selection process, which begins with the 2009 USA Shooting National Championships July 11th – 19th, and includes opportunities for athletes to earn points in international competitions in 2010 and 2011.
Bill Roy, USA Shooting’s Director of Operations, emphasized the procedure’s focus on selecting the country’s most capable athletes. “This process allows qualified athletes to win opportunities to compete at World Cups and the World Championships, where their performance can earn points toward a ‘threshold’ to gain a nomination to the Olympic Team,” he said. “Those competitors will have shot their way onto the team against the world’s best shooters.”
