From the AAFTA web site:
Selection Criteria for WFTF Team
For all WFTF’ers,
This is the criteria that are presently being used to qualify Team USA members for World’s participation. It is criteria based, so if a shooter meets criteria #1 he/she is qualified, then those that meet criteria #2, and so on. In the case of a tie, the shooter meeting the criteria most recently would qualify first. The shooter must shoot in WFTF to qualify (exception, committee selection).
At present, there are 8 PCP spots and 6 Springer spots. That could be decreased as we now have 40 countries in the WFTF and have been adding about 2 per year.
