JROTC Three-Position Air Rifle Postal Competition Now Open

September 27, 2019 By Tom McHale

The 2019-2020 JROTC Three-Position Postal Competition officially opened Sept. 25, 2019, for young cadets in Army, Navy, Marine Corps and Air Force JROTC programs who are interested in competing in a three-position air rifle match with other talented juniors across the nation. The Postal event is the first stage of the JROTC Nationals series of matches, continuing on with the Regional Service Championships before concluding with the National competition for qualifying athletes.

JROTC Three-Position Postal Competition

The JROTC National event is conducted by the Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) using the organization’s own electronic targets installed on ranges stationed in Ohio and Alabama, as well as on a mobile electronic range capable of being assembled at locations around the country.

Cadets in high school JROTC programs are welcome to compete in this at-home competition.

To compete, registered sporter and precision air rifle participants will each receive three targets and instructions for recording scores. Shooters will fire in each of the three positions (prone, standing, kneeling) at their home ranges – using one target for each position. Once record shots are fired, shooters will return the targets to CMP for scoring.

CMP staff members will verify scores using the Orion Visual Image Scoring system. Results will be posted within Competition Tracker (https://ct.thecmp.org/app/v1/index.php) for teams and individuals to check during the postal season.

  • Sept. 25, 2019 – Online Registration Opens
  • Nov. 14, 2019 – Online Registration Ends
