The National Sporter Air Rifle League, now in its regular season, pits high school teams in a series of eight weekly matches. Teams compete in a Three-Position Air Rifle match, a format modeled on Olympic rifle events, where athletes shoot from kneeling, prone and standing positions. Each match is scored in decimal points, with each shot worth up to 10.9 points, and team scores are determined by the top four shooter from each team.
At the end of the regular season, the top eight teams from the Champions Division will compete in a single-elimination tournament to determine the league champion.
