SPORTING SHOOTERS ASSOCIATION OF AUSTRALIA Inc was established in 1948 to promote the shooting sports and protect firearm owners’ interests.

Today, the role of the Association remains the same. SSAA members are represented by their individual SSAA state or territory associations in accordance with the individual state or territory government firearm regulations. Some SSAA state and territory associations are companies or incorporated associations.

SSAA (Qld.) Inc. is a not-for-profit incorporated association, being the parent body of more than 75 branches throughout Queensland. More than 79,000 SSAA Queensland members can attend over 90 SSAA branches and affiliate clubs throughout the state. SSAA Queensland owns and manages seven shooting complexes throughout Queensland on behalf of Queensland members.

Public Liability Protection

Public liability protection for our sport has become increasingly difficult to obtain. SSAA Queensland, in conjunction with Steadfast ART Limited, commenced a Discretionary Mutual Fund (DMF) to ensure Queensland members are protected from the uncertainty and ever-increasing costs of obtaining public liability now and in the future. 

Further information regarding the DMF can be found below:
