Starting a Team

---

NCSSAA supports the growth of collegiate shooting sports teams. If your school is considering adding a shooting sports team, we’d love to support you through the process! With new teams starting every day, know that you are not alone in the process of bringing a team to your campus. Share some information with us on the right and we’ll reach out to you.

Don’t forget to connect with our partners at the MidwayUSA Foundation! The organization exists to support youth and college shooting teams nationwide and provides a variety of resources: 

• The MidwayUSA Foundation’s Partner Community is a nationwide network of organizations in the shooting sports industry.
• Once your team is established, you can create a team endowment account, which can help secure your team’s financial success. Once your endowment has reached a balance of $2,000, you become eligible to apply for a grant once a year for up to 5% of your endowment’s balance. While a balance of $2,000 will yield only a $100 grant, as your account grows this will be a reliable source of funding for your team. 
• While your team can hold fundraisers and fund your endowment on your own, the Foundation has fundraising tools available to help support your team. They offer a monthly matching program, fundraising products, team gear, and online auctions.  

We're happy to tell you more about the MidwayUSA Foundation and their programs, but recommend reaching out to them via email for more in-depth information.
