The Team Competition
REPICO

REPICO is an attractive team competition discipline that combines elements of dynamic and technical shooting sports. It belongs to the group of rapid-fire shooting disciplines. Its name is an acronym of three words that reveal its essence – REvolver, PIstol, COllective. It is a competition of three-member teams where accuracy on paper targets and speed on steel targets (poppers, falling targets) determine the result.

History Of The
Competition

It is one of the newer competition disciplines included in the SZVvZ calendar. Its “country of origin” is listed as the Czech Republic. It was adopted from our Czech neighbors and included as an official competition discipline for the first time in 2016. A year later, the inaugural season of qualifying matches was held, culminating in unofficial Slovak Championships.

The popularity of this competition lies mainly in the fact that it is a team discipline where coordination and cooperation between team members play a crucial role.
