11. Competition Management by Sport 338 11.16 Shooting A total of 408 shooters from 68 countries, including 293 men and 115 women, competed from September 18 to 24 in the shooting competition, capturing 39 gold medals in 13 events. In the past Games, shooting competitions lacked excitement, as the competitions were centered on scoring. In the Seoul Games, however, new competitive elements were introduced in finals to make the shooting more attractive as a spectator sport. The shooting competition produced three world records, three ties for world records, 37 Olympic records, and 18 ties for Olympic records. On the first day of the competition, Irina Chilova of the U.S.S.R. captured the first gold medal in the Olympic Games in the women's air rifle, and the ensuing victory ceremony was televised live all over the world. 11.16.1 —————————————– Competition Preparations The SLOOC activated the Shooting Operations in February 1988, and moved the office to the Taenung International Shooting Range in May. The operations was comprised of six staff members of the SLOOC, 391 supporting personnel, 250 volunteers, and 49 temporary employees, for a total of 696. They were deployed to their assignment posts in phases, and subjected to rehearsals between May 13 and 15. Job education, specialized training and rehearsals were repeated until the end of August. The Taenung International Shooting Range, the venue of the shooting competitions, was about 18 kilometers from the Olympic Village, and was equipped with standardized facilities with a seating capacity of 3,000. The facilities included: a 25-meter shooting range with 12 units; a 50-meter shooting range with 82 targets; a 10-meter shooting range with 90 positions; two running game targets; one clay target range, three Olympic skeet fields and three Olympic trap fields. The Taenung International Shooting Range was the venue of the 1978 World Shooting Championships. The range's facilities were substantially expanded for the Asian Games. To accommodate finals procedures which were applied to the Seoul Olympic Games for the first time, ten-meter, 25-meter and 50-meter overhead projector, an electronic Scoreboard and TV monitors were installed. The Taenung International Shooting Range was available for training from September 3. The 50-meter shooting range was available for training in the small-bore rifle and the rapid-fire pistol, while the 25-meter running game targets and the 10-meter clay target range were available for eventspecific training. Training hours were determined by each range, and groups were allowed to use the specific training sites between September 3 and 13. From September 14 to 16, the shooting ranges were opened for official training. During the period of competition, training was allowed whenever there was no competition actually taking place. The shooting equipment complied with the rules of the International Shooting Union (UIT). In accordance with the policy of using locally manufactured equipment as much as possible, the required equipment was selected in advance and used after being approved. The targets for the qualification competition and training were supplied by the Greenhill <strong>Foundation</strong> of Korea, and the targets for the finals competition were supplied by the Edelman Company of the Federal Republic of Germany. Positions for test firing and competition were secured from foreign manufacturers. In addition, 4,367 units of 16 items were obtained from abroad, including four sets of check plate gauge, 44 sets of gauge, six celluloid gauge, and eight sets of target reading devices for air rifles, air pistols, and small-bore free rifles. Measuring scales and measuring tapelines were secured under licensing arrangements. Ten items were reusable, such as the pistol measuring device, ear-muffs and chronometers. The equipment secured from local manufacturers covered 9,901 units of 107 items, including ranges and recorders' tables. 11.16.2 —————————————– Conduct of the Competitions In accordance with the UIT regulations, participation was restricted to those holders of qualifying standards within the bounds of the quota set for each NOC. Only the 412 competitors within the quota are entitled to participate in the competition; quotas were allotted for each event. Each NOC was allowed to enter two shooters in the rifle event, two shooters in the pistol events, two shooters in the running game target event, and three shooters in the clay target shooting, plus one female shooter. Qualifying standards were set forth and explicated in the Seoul Olympic rules, and 408 shooters were selected on the basis of the entry forms. Competition started with the women's air rifle and the men's free pistol on September 18, and each event proceeded up to the finals to decide the first place in a single day. The shooting competition was divided into a qualification round and the finals; the finals were conducted after concluding all qualification rounds. Clay target shooting included both the men's and the women's events, and the running game target was open to both male and female shooters. In the qualification rounds, shooters in the small-bore rifle, pistol and running game target events fired shots according to the technical regulations of the UIT. In clay target shooting, skeet and trap, each shooter was required to shoot 150 rounds, and the 24 best shooters qualified to compete in the semifinals; in the semifinals, each shooter fired 50 rounds, and the six best shooters advanced to the finals. The finals were conducted soon after concluding the semifinals, and rankings were determined by adding the scores earned in the qualification round and the finals. The competitors were required to prepare their own guns and rounds, and the guns were limited to the standard weight. By distance or range, the events were divided into 50 meters, 25 meters and 10 meters, and firearms were divided into the small-bore rifle, running game targets, and clay (shotgun). Shooting events involved men, women, and mixed. Shooting time consisted of both testing and actual shooting times, but varied according to the events. In the qualification round, target papers were scored in packages at the scoring control room in the presence of the judges, and rankings were determined. Scoring for the rapid-fire pistol and clay was done on the spot. In the finals, scoring was done on the spot in the presence of the judges using automatic target reading devices. The United States and the U.S.S.R. each entered 26 shooters, 18 men and eight women. Korea entered 22 shooters, 14 men and eight women. The People's Republic of China and France each entered 21; the Federal Republic of Germany, Hungary and Sweden entered 15; and Japan and Czechoslovakia entered 14. Nineteen countries, including Vietnam and Singapore, were represented by only one shooter. The UIT was represented by its president, secretary-general, and two technical delegates. Technical officials totalled 32, including five members comprising the jury of appeals, five judges for the small-bore rifle, five judges for the pistol, five judges for the 3 clay target shooting, five judges for the running game target, and seven judges for the scoring control room. The U.S.S.R. placed first with four golds, one silver and six bronzes, and the United States placed 16th with one silver.
