Steel Challenge Range Officer Course

WSC Steel Challenge RO Course

The Westford Sportsman Club will hold a Steel Challenge RO Course on Saturday, March 22, 2025.

Certified Range Officers perform the officiating duties at a Steel Challenge match and help to ensure each competitor safely competes per the rules.

Even if you do not want to officiate, this course will give you a thorough understanding of the Steel Challenge rules, making you a more informed competitor. Knowing the rules will enable you to be a savvier and safer competitor.

Other than being either a USPSA or SCSA Member, there are no additional requirements for taking the class. However, we recommend that you have prior shooting experience.
