NSSF to Launch Digital Portal for Shooting Sports in 2026

The Nigeria Shooting Sport Federation (NSSF) is set to launch a digital portal on October 1, 2026, aimed at expanding organized shooting sports and enhancing athlete development across Nigeria. This initiative, supported by DICON Gray Insignia Limited (DGI) through its shooting-sports program, The Armory, will provide a centralized platform for membership, club affiliation, training, and competitions.

The launch follows a sensitization campaign to inform stakeholders about membership, licensing, and youth-development opportunities. The portal will go live at noon on October 1, after a morning sensitization program.

Bem Ibrahim Garba, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of DGI, emphasized Nigeria's potential in international shooting sports if modern facilities and training opportunities are provided. The partnership with the National Sports Commission aims to upgrade the shooting range at the Moshood Abiola National Stadium in Abuja to international standards, enhancing facilities for athletes and supporting high-level competition.
