About the SA Wingshooters Association...
The Southern African Wingshooters Association was formed by a group of leading clay and wingshooters in South Africa. It is South Africa's only SAPS-accredited national association dedicated to wingshooting in all its forms and to the conservation of gamebirds in Southern Africa. We offer our members exlusive bird shooting opportunities, we advise landowners on wildfowl and game bird management and we liaise with the authorities on conservation issues, shotgun shooting, gun legislation, shooting seasons and hunting licences. Overseas members are welcome! They can also join in local shoots!
Through the years we have expanded our services to include rifle shooting, handgun shooting, multi-gun sport shooting, PCC (pistol calibre carbine) division sport shooting and long range rifle shooting to name a few. We are indeed an all-inclusive association for all firearms owners and shooting and hunting enthusiasts for all types of firearms. We are SAPS accredited to issue dedicated sport person and dedicated hunter status to qualifying members. As the Dedicated Hunter and Dedicated Sport Person course are an NQF qualification, we therefore except other associations' dedicated course qualifications as RPL (recognition of prior learning) should you wish to join us and you already hold this status with another association.
The Association negotiates exclusive hunting rights with landowners for its members and works closely with organisers of selected shoots to ensure the long term success of these special events. In addition, it promotes the conservation, management and development of South Africa's wildfowl, gamebirds and plains game, through its membership of the DEFF National Wildlife Forum. Join us today and you receive a membership certificate, membership card, a quarterly magazine and exclusive access to some of the best plains game hunting and wing shooting available in Southern Africa!
Included in the annual membership subscription is R20 million liability cover for your shooting activities, a first in South Africa!
The South African Wingshooters Association is accredited with the South African Police Services. This means that membership of the association is accepted by the Police as proof of the status of a member applying for listing as Dedicated Hunter and/or Dedicated Sport Person for the purposes of obtaining a any firearms licence in terms of Act 60 of 2000.
