Target Sprint is an exciting new ISSF event which combines running with Air Rifle shooting.

A typical Target Sprint event has competitors running 400m then shooting 5 knock-down targets, followed by another 400m run and 5 more targets, then finishing on a final 400m run.

In 2022 Target Shooting NZ  started introducing Target Sprint in the Manawatu region.
Groups of Secondary School students have been enjoying the new discipline - they start out using Laser Rifles then progress onto Air Rifles.
