The New Zealand Clay Target Association (NZCTA) will proudly host the 16th ICTSF World Down The Line Championship from 15–17 March 2026 at the Canterbury Clay Target Club, Chattertons Road, McLeans Island, Christchurch.
CPSA members – both teams and individuals – are invited to take part in this prestigious international event.
Entry Forms Available
All competitors, including team members, must submit and pay an individual entry. Entry terms and conditions will be available on the NZCTA website alongside the entry forms.
Team Submissions
A separate team entry form is required. To assist the organisers with planning, team managers are asked to advise how many teams they expect to submit and when names will be confirmed.
Bringing Firearms to New Zealand
All visiting competitors travelling with firearms will require a Visitor’s Firearms Permit, issued by NZ Police. Applications will open from 16 September 2025, and competitors must allow at least four months for processing. Travel and accommodation details are required as part of the application. Full guidance will be made available on the NZCTA website.

In the lead-up to the World Championship, the New Zealand DTL Nationals will be held at the same venue from 7–14 March 2026. Entry is open to all shooters, and there is no cap on competitor numbers. Entry forms for the Nationals will be available at the end of July.
