This year, we are asking those who are registering teams (coaches and/or agents) to fill out the form below and you will be sent a registration form for your team.


We are trying to make the registration process easier.  The request form will ask for the following information:

  • County

  • Coach Name

  • Coach Phone

  • Coach Email

  • Name of 4-H Agent (if different from above)

  • Email of  4-H Agent (if different from above)

  • Check the boxes to select if you are registering Junior and/or Senior Teams

  • Note when/if you plan on shooting Air Rifle/Pistol


Once you have completed the form, you will be sent a confirmation email with a link to a folder with your registration forms.

  • There are three tabs at the bottom: Example, Junior Registration & Senior Registration. Please complete junior and senior registration on their respective tabs.

  • Register teams together, then register individuals separately. See the example tab. The SharpShooters team of 5 has all five in shotgun, four in rifle, and three in archery. Two members are also competing as individuals in muzzleloading, and they are registered as individuals for muzzleloading, in separate rows below the team. This is because we need the "Team Name" and "Individual" to classify where registration goes in our tabulations sheet.

  • Your registration will be considered final on August 1, 2025, and editing access will be locked. You will still be able to view your registration after this date, and any corrections/updates should be emailed to albrook4@ncsu.edu


Teams are composed of 3 to 5 individuals. Counties may have multiple teams, however, competitors may only compete on one team, and/or as an individual. (see 2025 tournament rules, p. 4, for further clarification  COACHES ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR KNOWING THE RULES.  If something is not clear, please contact Charles Young at cmyoung2@ncsu.edu to receive clarification. All rules are enforced at the event.
