      • The New Zealand Shooting Federation (NZSF) is the governing body for Target Shooting Sports in New Zealand. It holds responsibility for selecting and developing national teams for World Championships, as well as the Olympic and Commonwealth Games.


      Background


      The Federation acts as an umbrella, with clubs and participants affiliating via four associations:

      National Rifle Association of New Zealand (Fullbore Rifle)
      New Zealand Clay Target Association
      Pistol New Zealand
      Target Shooting New Zealand (Smallbore and Air Rifle)
      On behalf of those organisations, the Federation serves as the representative to Sport New Zealand, Paralympics New Zealand, the New Zealand Olympic Committee and the International Shooting Sport Federation.


      Performance at Competition


      Shooting has been one of New Zealand's most successful sports at the Commonwealth Games. At the 1998 Games in Kuala Luumpur, shooting was the highest performing New Zealand sport, winning eight medals including one gold. Pistol shooter Greg Yelavich is New Zealand's most medalled Commonwealth Games athlete, having won 12 medals between 1986 and 2010.
