Camp Joseph T. Robinson, Ark. - The National Guard Marksmanship Training Center (NGMTC) will conduct the 2025 WPW/AFSAM Rifle and Pistol Championships at Camp Joseph T. Robinson, North Little Rock, Arkansas to test the skills of service members from all over the world from March 31 – April 11, 2025.
Service members will execute combat marksmanship tasks during the 54th annual Winston P. Wilson (WPW) Rifle and Pistol Championship. Concurrently, the 34th Armed Forces Skill at Arms Meeting (AFSAM) will be held for international and interservice competitors.

This year’s match attracts competitors from all 54 states and territories, and allies from as far away as Sweden. Throughout the week, there will be 25 marksmanship tasks, three weapon-systems utilized, and each marksman will fire more than 600 rounds during the match.
