ELEY is proud to announce a renewed long-term partnership with the USA Shooting Team. The contract will see athletes compete with ELEY ammunition at the Olympic Games in Paris, 2024 as well as Los Angeles, 2028.
Athletes will also be showcasing their skills at events in a busy ISSF calendar in the run-up to Paris.
“The USA Shooting Team is a perfect partner for our ‘Choice of Champions’ value,” said Michael Atkinson ELEY Marketing Director. “ It is an honor to again be working with the dynamic USA Shooting Team. As in past years, we will continue to inspire and help people reach their competitive shooting goals, surpass their potential and enhance their enjoyment of participation in shooting sports. Our products allow target shooters at Club, World, and Olympic levels to realize their potential and win. We produce technically superior ammunition, whilst providing an excellent service to target shooters throughout the world.”
USA Shooting is excited about the long-term partnership through the 2028 LA Olympic and Paralympic Games.
“ELEY’s partnership continues to play a vital role in the success of USA Shooting’s rifle and pistol athletes in international, Olympic, and Paralympic competitions,” said Buddy DuVall, CMO for USA Shooting. “Having ELEY as a long-term partner will ensure that our athletes have world-class ELEY Tenex ammunition and ELEY testing facilities for matching the best possible ammo to each team member’s rifle or pistol. Winning at the highest levels of international competition demands shooting the most accurate and reliable ammunition possible, that’s what ELEY delivers for USA Shooting.”
ELEY’s premium cartridge, Tenex, has been used by Olympic champions throughout the world since 1964 when the new .22 entered the world of competition shooting at the Tokyo Olympic Games, winning all gold and silver medals in the .22 rifle and pistol events.
This success story continues nearly sixty years later at the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games with the Tenex cartridges winning 6 medals, 2 Gold, 2 Silver, and 2 Bronze, bringing ELEY’s Olympic medal haul to 131 in total.
