Welcome to the website of the Ballarat Pistol Club. We hope you will enjoy our site and learn something about our sport along the way. Should you be inspired to try it for yourself we would be glad to welcome you to our club where you will find a fun and interesting sport and heaps of great friends to help you along the way.

We offer a wide range of shooting disciplines with standards ranging from the highest levels of competition to those of a more social and relaxed style - with something for everyone in a club covering seniors, juniors, men and women. The club organises 'Open Shoots' throughout the year which attract many members from throughout Victoria as well as some from inter-state. These shoots usually run from Saturday to Sunday and are not only great for competition but also offer a chance to socialise over meals and enjoy light entertainment, making for a very enjoyable weekend.

If you are interested in a visit to the Ballarat Pistol Club (see map page for location) you will find that you will be most welcome to see what is on offer. With two members rostered to do weekend duty in the clubhouse you stand a good chance of getting a tour and having most of your questions answered. For those wanting to join the club, we try to make this process as painless as possible, given the paperwork and current firearms legislation that is in place. New members are given plenty of encouragement to help them gain confidence and knowlege in a club that has a high emphasis on 'safety first, last and always'.

Ranges and general facilities at the club are constantly being upgraded by way of 'working bees' and by purchasing new equipment as it is needed. Ballarat can boast the best air pistol range in the State with other ranges also under-going renovations to keep them up to standard and make improvements for member comfort.
