Teams of shooters are selected for North Island and South Island teams based on Championship scores shot between April and June each year. This is based on the average out of 100 of their FOUR best scores.
The RANKING LIST from the TSNZ Office gives the current ranking for all shooters who have nominated for North/South.
TEAMS:
OPEN - 20 members plus 2 emergencies
WOMEN - 15 members plus 2 emergencies
MEN - 15 members plus 2 emergencies (for the first time in 2019)
JUNIOR - 10 members plus 2 emergencies
VETERAN - 10 members plus 2 emergencies
TEAM SELECTION:
Some places in each team are awarded automatically based on the Ranking List. These are 15 for the Open team, 11 for the Women's and Men's Teams, 7 for the Juniors and Veterans Teams.
An Island Selection Panel of three (who have been appointed at the previous TSNZ AGM) confirm the automatic selections and then select the remaining members from the full list of nominees. They can consider nominees who have not shot 3 Championships for South Island and 4 Championships for North Island if they feel this is warranted.
Shooters who have been selected for the Teams are advised of their success by early July, and will then receive full information on the match and what is expected of them.
Managers are also appointed for each team at this time too.
THE MATCH:
Each Team and Island has a Manager who makes sure their teams know all they need to in advance of the match, and are present during the weekend. On the Friday night the Manager will introduce his/her team along with their years of representation and will present the Island datebars. During the Saturday match the Manager will make sure everyone is ready on time, will check targets and be the liaison for any protests, and at the Dinner will make sure everyone is present (and well presented) at the team photos.
On the Saturday all teams shoot shoulder to shoulder and will shoot one ten-shot, one twenty-shot, and then one ten-shot match. Separate matches are shot for each team a shooter has qualified for - for example a shooter in both the Junior and Open teams will have to shoot two separate lots of matches, one for each team.
Those who rank in the top of each team qualify for their respective New Zealand Team(s)., and the Emergency shooters can also qualify for NZ Teams in the same way the full team members do. The NZ teams then shoot on the Sunday in a Postal Match against the UK Home Counties. Shooters who do not make the NZ teams also shoot on the Sunday in the Derby Match, where teams have been drawn from their ranking on the previous day. There is often a Manager's match too, where the team managers have to borrow all the gear they need.
The event concludes with an Awards Dinner on the Sunday night, which is a formal event and includes presentation of trophies and NZ pockets and datebars, and photographs of all teams. The dress code for all team members is black trousers/skirt, white shirt/top, and black blazer/jacket.

The final day of the 2023 North v South match had the NZ teams up shooting first. These matches are all marked in whole scores with no inners, as that is how the UK mark their targets and this match is a postal against the UK Home Counties teams. The Managers' Shoot (with borrowed gear and off the rest) and the Derby Match were the last events of the day. The weekend will conclude with the presentation dinner, with photos to come.

The 2023 N v S programme was discussed at the Executive Meeting on 6th July. Since announcing the programme provided by Hosts Canterbury Association to Members, both the Executive and the office have received much feedback, both positive and negative, towards the key change of having some teams shoot on the Friday. There was particular mention of the announcement of this being so close to the match date, requiring many to have to revise travel arrangements.
The result of the Executive Meeting is that the current Rules do not allow matches to be shot on the Friday as they state: “The Inter-Island Open, Women, Men, Junior and Veteran matches shall be held annually during the weekend of PLUS 11”. The definition of a “weekend” is Saturday and Sunday only.
The 2023 N v S programme has now been revised to provide this, with matches only being shot on the Saturday and Sunday.
The reasonings behind CTSA’s initial programme have been noted, and as a result, an Executive Remit is now being drafted to allow future Hosts the ability to make some changes which would be presented to the Executive for approval well in advance of the match, in the same way the Outdoor Nationals programme is managed. It will then be up to the Members at the AGM to decide if this is the format they wish to follow in the future.
These are the Final Ranking Lists, all matches in the ranking period have now been added.
Please check carefully and let the TSNZ Office know immediately if there are any amendments required.
North vs South 2020 was cancelled due to Covid-19
