Nationals 2024 | Important Update

2024 National Championship
Nationals Athletes,

This email contains valuable information about preparing for the what, when, and the where. You will receive several more emails leading up to the event. If you have any additional questions please reach out to info@thetacticalgames.com

IMPORTANT UPDATE
We’re writing to follow up on the Nationals Roundtable call that took place last night. For those who were unable to attend, a recording of the call is available HERE.

As discussed during the call, Staccato Ranch TX informed us last week that they have completed an internal risk assessment and determined that the range is not suitable for .223/5.56 caliber rifle fire at this time. This is a significant component of our competition, so the difficult decision was made to relocate the event.

Staccato and Staccato Ranch have made every effort to ensure a smooth transition, which we greatly appreciate. As a result, we will be moving the event to Texas Shooting Academy in Florence, TX, 300 US-183, Florence, TX 76527. This change should not impact travel or lodging arrangements, as TSA is conveniently located approximately 15 minutes from Staccato Ranch and 25 miles from TTG HQ.

Our team is currently working to confirm arrangements at an off-site location for Friday, November 15th ONLY. We will confirm the location with all competitors as soon as possible. 

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this change, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at info@thetacticalgames.com
