THE RANGE
The Shooting Range is located inside the Sports Authority of Thailand’s Regional Training Center. You can Google for “New THPSA Shooting Range” (or GPS coordinate 12.8485604,101.0356645).
The Range is located in a outer area from the City. There are not many places to eat and stay near the range. Our recommendation for competitors is to stay in the Pattaya area where there are many options to choose for facilities during the match.
