Host the ASSC
Hosting the ASSC is a neat opportunity for clubs and can offer the following benefits to the host club:
1. It is a unique shooting event that would allow the host club to conduct their own registered shoot both BEFORE and AFTER the ASSC, giving a probable number of 50-70 shooters and the profit from both events.
2. The ASSC is very easy to host as the AFSA provides most logistical and administrative functions including registration, referees, scoring, awards, etc. The host club has minimal responsibilities as outlined in the sample letter below, while reaping the benefits of revenue from practice rounds, food and beverage sales, RV sites, and ammunition sales.
3. This can convey the host clubs' support for members of the Armed Forces and create a network across the nation that can positively market your club and facilities in the future to other members of the Armed Forces as well as friends and family
WE WANT YOU TO HOST THE ASSC!
Above is the letter that the AFSA Secretary sends to eligible clubs each January/February. The ASSC and bidding to host the event can seem complicated, so we suggest you read this letter which outlines the responsibilities of both AFSA and the host club, while also explaining the bid process.
All bids must be submitted by April 15th the year prior to desired host date
(e.g. April 15, 2025 for the 2026 ASSC).
