In November 2016 the athletes selected to be on the 2018 Performance Programme of Scottish Target Shooting, managed by sportscotland's Institute of Sport, were released.

The 2018 Performance Programme is broken down into 2 tiers - High Performance and Academy - and is reviewed on annual basis in the lead up to the 2018 Commonwealth Games in Gold Coast, Australia. Between the two programmes, as well as getting access to high quality coaching, employed and/or contracted to work with the athletes on the programmes, athletes also have the opportunity to access a number of different support mechanisms including strength and conditioning support, physic support, nutritional advice, sports psychology to name a few as well as some financial support for attending agreed events to help with an athlete's development. Access to these services depend on the programme the athlete has been selected for.

Scottish Target Shooting would like to congratulate all athletes selected for the programmes for 2016-17 performance year.
