According to a release, the event marks a decade since the competition was first held in 2016 and will also feature the launch of the association’s first official match booklet, a magazine highlighting the competition, its athletes and the sport of practical shooting.

The match comes as Jamaica prepares to send its national team to Aruba for the Level IV Pan American Handgun Championship in August, with the President’s Cup serving as a key opportunity for athletes to fine-tune their skills ahead of the regional tournament.
Jamaican shooters have enjoyed success internationally in recent years, securing podium finishes at the Level IV Latin American Handgun Championship in Argentina, the 2025 Florida State Championship and the Level III USA Extreme Open 2025.
Ten local competitors also qualified for the Level V IPSC World Shoot in South Africa, where Anthony Johnson won the Grand Senior category and Ryan Bramwell finished among the top 10 in the Production Optics Senior division.
