Club Profile

Who we are:
Brock's Gap Training Center (dba Steel City Sport Shooting Association) is an organization dedicated to education in, and advancement of, all shooting sports.  The organization was established in 1962.

Membership Requirements:
The club uses a selection process to assure that all members are serious, dedicated shooters who have knowledge of and experience with the safe use of firearms. Current members include many local businessmen and professionals as well as members of law enforcement and public safety organizations.

All members must be recommended for membership by two current members, must attend a safety orientation class, must participate in two (2) matches of their choice, and must be approved by the Board of Directors prior to receiving a probationary membership card.  The best way to become acquainted with current members and get their recommendation is by participating in club matches, which are held on weekends, are open to the public, and represent many of the shooting disciplines.

After one year, if the probationary member has met all requirements and proven himself/herself to be a safe and responsible shooter, full membership is then granted.

Membership in the National Rifle Association is required.

Location:
The entrance to the range is located on South Shades Crest Road adjacent to the bridge over the railroad tracks just north of South Shades Crest school and the Eden Ridge subdivision.  Entry is secured by a gate which is left open only when a match is in progress or for special occasions.  At all other times, an access card is required to gain entry.  The range is located approximately 7/10ths of a mile past the gate. Click here to view a map with directions.

Safety Precautions:
All ranges are backed by earthen berms.  In addition, all ranges are oriented facing higher ground.

All members must successfully pass a safety orientation class.

Prior to every match, the match directors review all safety precautions with the participants.

In over 40 years, there has never been a firearms related accident at the facility.
