Shooting League of India to Kick Off on February 16, 2026

New Delhi, Dec 10(UNI) The much-anticipated Shooting League of India (SLI) is set to be held from February 16 to 26, 2026. Today’s announcement follows the earlier confirmation that the inaugural SLI has been moved to early 2026. The final dates now align to the ISSF’s published 2026 calendar to avoid clashes with major international competitions.
The tournament is expected to deliver plenty of excitement, with several top Indian and international athletes competing across various events. The SLI aims to showcase high-quality shooting action while giving fans a chance to watch some of the best athletes in the world go head-to-head in a league-style format.
Speaking on the inaugural edition and the start of the competition, newly elected NRAI President Kalikesh Narayan Singh Deo said, “The SLI is a milestone for our sport- franchise-built, athlete-first, and aligned to the global calendar to maximise participation. With mixed-team formats, compelling storylines, and a premium broadcast, we’re set to deliver a world-class opening season that welcomes international stars and inspires India’s next generation.”
