Recognized Matches
The matches displayed here represent the current slate of STS-recognized events—competitions that meet our standards for fieldcraft, realism, competitive integrity, and professional execution. While these matches draw heavily from Special Forces and military sniper-school concepts, they are fully open to the public and designed to challenge civilian competitors seeking an authentic field environment.
Each event is independently run and unified under a common standard that preserves realism while ensuring consistency across the series. As the Sniper Team Series continues to grow, additional matches will be evaluated and added throughout the season, expanding both geographic reach and competitive opportunity while maintaining the level of difficulty and credibility that define STS.

Chaos Concepts
Chaos Concepts produces demanding precision rifle competitions built around fog-of-war uncertainty, fieldcraft, and decision-making under stress. These matches prioritize target detection, terrain use, and adaptive problem-solving over rehearsed positional shooting. Designed to be mentally intense and operationally realistic, Chaos events challenge competitors to perform in complex field environments where awareness, discipline, and resilience matter as much as marksmanship.

Steel City Precision
Steel City Precision hosts challenging, terrain-driven precision rifle competitions rooted in natural field environments rather than flat, linear ranges. Set on roughly 660 acres of hills and wooded valleys in central Alabama, SCP matches emphasize true fieldcraft—blind and semi-blind stages, target detection within natural terrain, tricky winds, and movement between positions—requiring competitors to locate, range, and engage targets with limited information. These events test marksmanship, observation, planning, and adaptability over hilly terrain and distances from contact out to 1,000 + yards, providing a demanding experience that pushes shooters beyond standard paper drills. While their roots are in rigorous field precision, SCP events are open to civilian competitors looking to expand their skill sets and test themselves in realistic, stress-filtered scenarios.
