IBU opens new call for Biathlon 4 All applications: Apply until 12 May 2026

The IBU has opened a new call for applications under its Biathlon 4 All (B4A) programme, inviting eligible National Federations to apply for equipment and promotional support.

National Federations from Development Categories A–E are encouraged to submit applications to receive laser or optical rifles, along with support to help promote and develop biathlon at grassroots level.

This call is open to National Federations that did not receive support during the 2025/2026 season, either through the Biathlon 4 All second call or the Material Distribution programme. Detailed eligibility criteria are available in the Application Guidelines.

However, all National Federations remain eligible to apply for Para Biathlon-related projects and equipment support, regardless of their participation in previous Biathlon 4 All calls.

Applications must be submitted via the IBU Scope platform between 1 April and 12 May 2026, with results to be announced by 31 May 2026.
