​Alberta Federation of Shooting Sports 
​Long Term Athlete Development ​

 
The Alberta Federation of Shooting Sports (AFSS) uses the Shooting Federation of Canada (SFC) Framework (2011) as a model for supporting the development of athletes in the target shooting sports in Alberta.  The SFC Framework is a comprehensive document and provides the basis of understanding how to implement the LTAD Shooting Sports Framework.
​
Each of the AFSS 11 shooting sports is governed by an independent association that is responsible for the long term development of its discipline’s athletes. Shooting is a late entry sport in the LTAD model and as such the AFSS and its associations focuses its efforts on the areas of
​
  1. Active Start and Fundamentals (these are briefly referred to at the beginning of this document and occur prior to Introduction to Target Shooting).
  2. Introduction to Target shooting;
  3. Train to Train;
  4. Train to Compete with support but lesser involvement in;
  5. Train to Win (mandate of the SFC); and
  6. Active for Life.

All shooting disciplines also factor in athletes with physical disabilities.

Alberta Handgun Association (AHA)
Alberta Smallbore Rifle Association (ASRA)
Alberta Full Bore Rifle Association (AFRA)
