Next year however, two additional teams will compete in the Production  division and the Standard division, the equivalent of the Limited  division within USPSA competition.<\/p>\n<p>The idea for adding two more teams to the U.S. roster in Greece came  from the Women of USPSA who are helping with the selection process by  hosting an online application.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The World Shoot is one of the most prestigious action shooting  competitions in the world. USPSA has fielded Open and Standard ladies  teams in the past, but never in Production division. We hope that our  increased partipation helps encourage  growth in the women&#8217;s category,  not just here in the America but throughout the world,&#8221; said Julie  Golob, captain of the Smith &amp; Wesson shooting team and co-founder  for Women of USPSA.<\/p>\n<p>Women who are members of USPSA and interested in representing the U.S.  in international competition have until December 5 to apply.
