The International Shooting Sport Federation has confirmed changes to the dates of competitions on the 2026 calendar.
 
Two events have had their dates moved to different months in the calendar. The ISSF World Cup Rifle/Pistol/Shotgun in Hangzhou, which was initially scheduled for the 10th to 19th of September 2026, will now take place from 20th to 29th of July. 

Switching places, the ISSF Junior World Cup Shotgun in Porpetto has been moved from July to the 12th to 20th of September 2026.

Following further consultation from the ISSF Events team, some competition schedules have had their dates shortened. This will not affect the competitions themselves or the preparations for delegates, officials and athletes.
