Introduction To CMA
What does "dynamic shooting sport" mean?
In our context this means that a competitor will be confronted with ever changing tasks to complete as fast and as accurate as possible. Distances, movement, obstacles, targets, shooting positions, circumstances and many other factors may vary from stage to stage in a competition. The athletes cannot anticipate the exact challenges that they will face and therefore must prepare as comprehensive as possible.
What disciplines does CMA offer?
We have handgun and 2-gun (rifle and handgun combined) disciplines. There are separate competitions for the two disciplines. The Match Directors have a large toolbox at their disposal to design spectacular exercises.
Who can participate in CMA competitions?
All licensed shooters are welcome to compete. New members will attend the license course and pass the skills test prior to participation. There are separate shooter licenses for handgun and for rifle.
