With two ISSF World Cup stages in Shotgun already in the books, time has finally come for the first, awaited appointment with the Rifle and Pistol disciplines.

From April 8th to April 16th, in fact, the 2015 ISSF World Cup will be in Changwon, Korea, where hundreds of athletes from all over the world will compete in the ten Olympic events: 10m Air Rifle Men, 10m Air Rifle Women, 50m Rifle 3 Positions Men, 50m Rifle 3 Positions Women and 50m Rifle Prone Men for the first discipline; 10m Air Pistol Men, 10m Air Pistol Women, 50m Pistol Men, 25m Pistol Women e 25m Rapid Fire Pistol Men for the second one.

As usual, Voice2Media staff will produce all the textual and photographic contents, conveying them through the Federation official official website and its web channels: from the traditional FacebookTwitterInstagram and YouTube, to Sina Weibo and YouKu, specifically created for the chinese speaking readers and visitors.

With two disciplines at stake, the schedule is obviously more packed than the previous ones, and the ten events finals are distributed over a six days span. Here’s the details:

Friday, April 10th:
10m Air Rifle Men Final.

Saturday, April 11th:
50m Pistol Men Final.
10m Air Rifle Women Final.
25m Pistol Women Final.

The last time that the Changwon firing range hosted an ISSF World Cup Stage for Rifle and Pistol happened in April 2013, while it was in April 2012 that the South Gyeongsang capital city was awarded with the 52nd edition of the ISSF World Championship in all events, scheduled for August and September 2018.

The next stage of the 2015 ISSF World Cup is planned since April 24th, in Larnaca, Cyprus, where the third stage of the Shotgun competitions will take place.
