    UNDER WBSF RULES THE SSAA AUSTRALIAN HOSTING OF THE FIRST WORLD BENCHREST RIMFIRE CHAMPIONSHIPS HAS HAD TO BE CANCELLED DUE TO LACK OF COMPETITOR NATIONS.

    THE RESPONSE THAT HAS BEEN RECEIVED BY AUSTRALIA AS THE HOST NATION HOWEVER DOES PROVIDE SUFFICIENT COMPETITORS AND INTEREST TO HOLD THE FIRST WBSF REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP IN BRISBANE QUEENSLAND.

    WE WILL HAVE AT LEAST 3 NATIONS WHO HAVE CONFIRMED THEIR ATTENDANCE AT THE COMPETITION.

    THE SHOOT PROGRAM WILL BE THE SAME WITH 2 DAYS FOR TEAM EVENTS AND 2 DAYS FOR INDIVIDUAL EVENTS.  THE MAIN DIFFERENCE IS THAT THE TEAM EVENT HAS BEEN OPENED UP TO ALLOW OTHER SHOOTERS TO NOMINATE FOR BOTH THE TEAM AND INDIVIDUAL EVENTS.
