NSSA-NSCA Acquires Property Adjacent to NSC

January 10, 2021 By Sherry Kerr

Click image to enlarge map. This property overview shows the location of the new tract in relation to the original property and major features of the National Shooting Complex.
On December 31, NSSA-NSCA completed the purchase of 23+ acres adjoining the National Shooting Complex that creates a buffer from development and helps protect the association’s investment in its San Antonio, Texas, property.

The land purchase is an important investment in the future of the National Shooting Complex, preventing any type of encroachments of residential or commercial development adjacent to our property boundary. This investment received unanimous support from the joint NSSA-NSCA Finance Committee and the Executive Committee.

“The NSSA-NSCA bought this property as a buffer from the continuous growth that we’re seeing around the National Shooting Complex,” said Michael Hampton, Jr., NSSA-NSCA Executive Director. “We’ve long wanted to add this property to the complex, and we are very fortunate that it became available to us at a time when we were able to leverage the market strength and our futures portfolio to do this purchase without encumbering the association with long-term debt.”

The property adjoins the southwest side of the National Shooting Complex that has access off Gass Road. Twenty acres are under agricultural exemption. It includes a 2300-square-foot house and a deep, large-capacity well. It has almost 500 feet of frontage on Gass Road, and one side of the property has a gravel road that separates it from neighboring property. It has a 1200-foot common border with the original NSC property.

“As we all know, land is something that they will not make any more of, and when the opportunity arises to buy some that attaches to our current 600 acres, we need to take it,” said Hampton. “The property had been in the Skolaut family for over 70 years, and the family gave the association the first opportunity to buy this land, as we have been good neighbors to them. At closing, Mrs. Skolaut’s daughter said, ‘It’s sad to see it go, but we’re happy, and I know my mother is happy, that it’s going to the gun club.’”

For questions about the property acquisition, contact Executive Director Michael Hampton or an NSSA-NSCA officer.

COVID-19 Protocols for World Skeet Championships

August 29, 2020 By Sherry Kerr

The NSSA and National Shooting Complex will implement a comprehensive list of COVID-19 protocols to reduce risks and prioritize the safety of our 2020 World Skeet Championships participants, guests, vendors, and NSC staff. Below are the protocols we will follow:

  • Parking passes will be required in an effort to prevent non-shooters from driving around the complex.
  • We will check the temperature of shooters going into Registration. 
  • All shooters will receive a face mask and a small bottle of hand sanitizer in their goodie bag.
  • Squads will be asked to maintain social distancing in the field, i.e., 6 feet between shooters waiting their turn to shoot. 
  • Voice-release wands will not be used, allowing for social distancing between shooters and the referee.
  • We will minimize the number of workers and shooters inside Registration at one time.
  • Plexiglass barriers will be used in Registration, the Pro Shop, and Ammo Building to protect the shooters and staff. 
  • Tables and chairs at the Club House and patio are spread out to facilitate social distancing.
  • Masks are required at all times inside any building and in all other areas where social distancing cannot be maintained.
  • We will take the temperature of referees and loaders every morning prior to shooting.
  • There will be no communal water jugs or coolers provided on the field. Instead, staff members will distribute bottles of water on the fields prior to each flight. 
  • To discourage congregation of shooters, there will not be a printed scoreboard. Shooters will need to look online to see the scores or at TVs spaced out outside Registration and at the Club House. 
  • There will be an EMT onsite during all shooting flights. They will be available to take the temperature of anyone who needs it and help as needed for medical issues. 
  • To discourage on-site shopping, we will encourage participants to pre-order event merchandise for pick-up during registration and will have very limited quantities of merchandise for sale at the event. 
  • We will not host social events, i.e., the Hall of Fame Banquet, that do not allow for social distancing.

Shooting for Rewards Points Now Last Longer

January 10, 2020 By nssaadmin

Shooting for RewardsEffective February 26, 2020, points earned in the Shooting for Rewards program for shooting registered targets won’t expire for four years, doubling the time they can be redeemed. The Shooting for Rewards program allows NSSA-NSCA members to turn their registered targets into logo merchandise, shooting gear, and even shooting fees for events like the World Skeet Championships or National Sporting Clays Championship!

Points are earned just for shooting registered targets — for every target you register, you earn a point. NSSA members will earn DOUBLE points for participating in their state or zone shoot and TRIPLE points for the World Skeet Championships. You can check your points status anytime just by logging on to your NSSA My Home Page or NSCA My Home Page.

Rewards points can be redeemed online anytime, 24/7!

To redeem your points, just log on to your NSSA or NSCA My Home Page, and click the Spend Points link.  That will take you to the Shooting for Rewards catalog.


See the Shooting for Rewards Catalog


Note that you must be logged in to your own account to spend points; if you are logged in under a family member’s number, for example, you will not be able to view your own rewards points.

Please allow 4-7 weeks for orders to ship out, as some items are custom ordered to your specifications.

Shipping is free within the United States. International orders will incur shipping charges. In that event, you will be contacted via the information we have on file for you, or you can call headquarters at 210-688-3371 after you have placed your order.

Find something you want but don’t have enough points? Not a problem. Just keep shooting and saving your points. Now, points do not expire for four years after they are earned. Keep shooting and earning!

Support Youth, Other Programs with NSSA-NSCA Donations

October 11, 2019 By Sherry Kerr

If you’re a supporter of NSSA-NSCA and our various programs and want to offer financial support, we want you to know how to do so.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation, the National Skeet Shooting Association (of which the NSSA, NSCA, and National Shooting Complex are divisions) is eligible to receive tax-deductible contributions. While you may choose to make a general donation to the nonprofit corporation or to either association, you may also specify how your contribution is to be earmarked, such as for the NSCA USA Sporting Clays Team, to the youth shooting program, NSSA-NSCA Hall of Fame and Museum, scholarship program, or any other specific use.

If you’d like to support the future of skeet and sporting clays through a donation to NSSA-NSCA, here are some ways you can do it:

  • Make an online donation with our form.
  • Mail a check to us at 5931 Roft Rd., San Antonio, TX 78253. Specify any fund or purpose you wish your donation to be used for.

The National Skeet Shooting Association is a 501(c)(3) corporation as determined by the United States Internal Revenue Service. In return for your donation no goods or services are received. Therefore, your entire gift qualifies as a charitable donation.

The NSSA recommends that you consult with a tax professional in your state to determine the extent to which your gift may qualify for tax deduction at the state and local level.
