The National Air Rifle 'New Shooter' League is a national team league for clubs and schools. Unique for this league, athletes competing in the league are limited to High School age athletes in their first year of competition. Over 10 weeks each team competes in 8 virtual games, one game each week, with two bye weeks in the season. Each week, each team in the league is paired with another team with a near equal skill level. The teams compete at their home ranges, with the scores merged together online on Scopos' Result Center.

In each game the teams compete in what is known as a Three-Position Air Rifle match. The match is modeled after Olympic Rifle competitions but adapted to high school age athletes. Each athlete will shoots 10 shots in three different shooting positions, prone, standing, and kneeling. Each shot is worth a maximum of 10.9 points. The sum of points scored in the 30 shots is the athlete's total. The team score is comprised of the best four athletes from each team.
