PRESIDENTS CORNER 

September 2024

Hello Florida Sport Shooting Association Members,

Welcome to another update from FSSA. I hope you enjoyed a relaxing Labor Day Holiday. With summer almost behind us…will someone please let Mother Nature know she can begin turning down the temps, I hope you had a chance to get out and enjoy some time on the range. But this is Florida…and with few exceptions, it’s always a fun time to get out and spend some time with family, friends, firearms, and FREEDOM.

Congratulations to FSSA’s individuals and teams for representing Florida in Smallbore Rifle, Precision Pistol, Silhouette Rifle, High Power Rifle and F-Class. FSSA had individuals and teams represented at the NRA National Championships at Camp Atterbury, IN and the CMP National Championships at Camp Perry, OH. Congrats to all competitors!!

Additionally, Florida volunteers provided excellent support to the NRA National Championships with Brad Sutherland serving as Range Engineer and Terry Sutherland serving as Statistical Officer for all disciplines. Sue Carter, Larry Watkins, and Ted Carter supported the NRA Pistol Championships.

I’m very proud of all our shooters, and our FSSA Directors and volunteers that work to support FSSA’s shooting programs. Well done!

Exciting News! The 2024 NRA F-Class Mid-Range Full-Bore National Championships will be hosted by Port Malabar Rifle and Pistol Club (PMRPC), October 10-13, 2024. This is a special opportunity for an exceptional shooting club with impressive range facilities. Paul Brunton is PMRPC’s Rifle Director and Match Director for the F-Class Mid-Range National Championship. If you or anyone you know is an F-Class competitor, I highly encourage you to register for this championship. Match Program and Registration are available at: www.pmrpcrifle.com. FSSA looks forward to having a team compete and FSSA has planned to support any junior competitor with paid entry fees. Since this is a big event for both Florida and PMRPC to host a national championship, volunteers are needed on any or all championship days. Experience in F-Class competition is not required. If you are interested in helping with the championships, please contact Paul Brunton at rifle@pmrpc.com. Your help as a volunteer and/or your participation as a competitor are much appreciated. I look forward to a safe and highly successful national championship run by PMRPC.
