The World Field Target Federation (WFTF) is the governing body for the shooting sport discipline of Field target. The WFTF specifies and regulates World Championship, International or other major field target events.[1] The WFTF has 43 member federations spread across all 6 continents.[2]
The WFTF is managed by a president elected by nomination and majority vote from representatives of each National Governing Body (NGB) who serves for a period of three years.
Management of the world championship is the responsibility of the chairman of the hosting countries NGB and will act as Vice-President of the federation until the end of the hosted championship.
Field target is contested on an open competition basis, with all competitors eligible to win the overall championship in their class. There are two classes of shooting:
Each class offers the following placings:
The location of the championships is based on rotation between the 43 member countries of the WFTF, a country via its NGB has the opportunity to decline hosting of the event in which case the opportunity to host passes onto the next member country in sequence.[3]
