What is the process by which a competitor becomes 'Performance Standard Qualified'? Are there specific competitions that the competitor can attend to attain the qualification? Where are the competitions and when? What is the minimum qualification score for air pistol?
I ask this because this is the requirement to be selected to the 2006 World Team (Section 'A' - Paragraph 7).
A detailed answer would be greatly appreciated.

Actually, I think he was talking about performance travel scores. USA Shooting sets scores that one has to have shot in order to get funded by the team. As I have been out of the game for a few years I'm not totally up on these things. However, there is a section that I just read at USA shootings website about travel scores. They now have an average score in addition to a single score shot in the previous year. The single score was rather high, 580something, but the average was 573.
Go to their website and then to policies and prodedures, you will find it.
