NEW FORMAT OF THE FINAL OLYMPIC SHOOTING
The new format of the finals was designed for this
phase of the competition to become a great attraction for spectators who come
to watch the great contest between the best athletes in the sport of shooting
and the award of medalists of that competition.
In this new form of Final, the main actors will
continue to be the shooters, but now with the participation of two other
important actors, which are; the Chief
Range Officer of the Final (CRO) and the Announcer which will be responsible for the success of the event making
each Final an attraction for the audience.
The CRO must know perfectly script of the Final he is
directing, because the time of each step and commands has to obey every minute/second
as determined by the script. Besides knowing perfectly the rules of the event,
he must be a perfect actor with good diction, have a strong and clear voice and
have presence of mind to overcome unexpected situations that may occur without
losing his temper or the shooting program sequence.
The Announcer becomes
now a new personage of great importance in the presentation of the Finals. He’s
responsibility is to introduce the Finalists, the Jury Member-in-charge and the
Chief Range Officer of the Final, and also, during the Final, to keep the
spectators well informed on all details of the competition, to make the
audience participate actively throughout the intermissions between the shooting
stages. They should cheer and applaud all the time, and for that to happen, the
announcer has to be charismatic, creative, like a television presenter.
Such is the importance of the announcer that ISSF will
provide a professional sport announcer who will serve as the ISSF Finals FOP Announcer
during all Finals at ISSF Championship during the year of 2013.

How to use the “Commands and Announcements for Finals
2013”
The ISSF Headquarters provides separate scripts for all fifteen (15)
Olympic ISSF Rifle, Pistol and Shotgun Events which have to be used for all
Finals at the 2013 ISSF Championships (WCH, WC, WCF).
Each script includes ALL commands of the Chief Range Officer (CRO) and
the public announcements of the Finals FOP Announcer according to the official
ISSF Rules and Regulation 2013.
Each script is a XLS file and consists of 3 separate worksheets:
1) Complete
· Here you find the complete overview with all necessary information and comments.
2) CRO only
· Here you find all the CRO commands, and the information when the Finals
FOP Announcer will make announcements.
3) Announcer only
· Here you find all the Finals FOP Announcer announcements (including “Welcome”
and “Closing”), and the information when the CRO will make commands.
You only have to import the correct “Scheduled Finals Start Time”
into the first yellow box next to “Start” of each worksheet, and the complete
and correct timing will be calculated automatically!!!
Please use the separate worksheets as “working document”: the CRO and
the Finals FOP Announcer should get their “scripts” early enough to be prepared
for the Finals as good as possible.
Please make sure that there will be a rehearsal for all persons involved
in conducting the Finals. The Chief Range Officer and the Finals FOP Announcer
have to know exactly, who is doing what and when!!!
The Finals FOP Announcer will receive the “best achievements” of each
Finalist right after the end of the Qualification (when the 6/8 Finalists are
known) from the ISSF HQ staff in the according “Athletes Presentation”.
In 2013, the ISSF will provide a professional sports announcer who will
serve as the ISSF Finals FOP Announcer during all Rifle, Pistol and Shotgun
Finals at ISSF Championships.
Please don’t hesitate to contact the ISSF Headquarters
for any questions / problems
