Scopos is pleased to announce a partnership with Move United to benefit paralympic shooting athletes. Scopos with Move United, a non profit organization focusing on parasports, will be hosting an ongoing series of monthly virtual matches exclusive to paralympic shooters.

To encourage participation and develop paralympic athletes these virtual matches are designed to let athletes focus on improvement in a competitive environment. The emphasis is on development, rather than simply achieving high scores.

Initially, each match will be 40 shots prone, with categories for the paralympic disciplines (e.g. SH1, SH2, SH3).

We’ve worked with Move United for more than eight years and are delighted to expand this relationship to provide a medium for athletes with physical disabilities to improve themselves through Move United’s motto to Push What’s Possible.

If you run a paralympic organization or work with paralympic air rifle shooters and would like to be involved with these matches please reach out to Scopos at support@shooterstech.net or 703-596-0099. We will coordinate between your organization and Move United to add you to the competitions.
