2026 Fall All-Ages Open and Senior State Shooting Team Nationals Qualifier Match
Arizona 4-H Shooting Sports will be selecting our 2026 State Shooting Team members during the upcoming all-ages and senior qualifier match taking place 24-26 October 2025 west of Tucson in Three Points, Arizona. In addition to the all-ages fun match being conducted, the top four senior division competitors in smallbore rifle, smallbore pistol, muzzleloading, hunting skills, archery and shotgun will be invited to represent Arizona at the 4-H National Championships in June 2026, along with our top four air pistol and air rifle competitors who were determined during the state air match which was held 22-24 August 2025.
All 4-H shooting sports project members with competitive experience at the club level or above are encouraged to come out to compete and enjoy the weekend with likeminded enthusiasts. Free, dry (no water available or electricity), primitive camping is available at the Three Points VFW Post #10254 Friday through Sunday. Please check the camping box when registering so we have an approximate idea of what our camper numbers are going to be.
Regular registration is open on Z-Suites now through 30 September 2025. The cost to register is $40 per competitor, plus $20 if you choose to compete in shotgun (payable on site, cash only, please). Late registration is open 01-10 October 2025. Note that late registrants will not receive a t-shirt. When registering in Z-Suites, competitors will be asked to prioritize the shooting disciplines they would like to compete in. The match offers the opportunity to compete in a maximum of three disciplines during the weekend. Every effort will be made to accommodate competitors' top three choices, but please be aware there are no guarantees. Note that the cost to register is fixed. All competitors are encouraged to compete in three disciplines, even if their focus has been mainly on one over the past year. You might surprise yourself competing in something outside your norm!
Because of the way we are handling registration, our detailed schedule for the weekend will not be available until one week after registration closes. But, the overall concept is as follows.
Competitors are encouraged to check-in and complete equipment inspection on Friday, 25 October 2025, in order to avoid potential long lines early Saturday morning.
