Commonwealth Games Federation, CGF said today, Shooting competition has not been scrapped from the 2022 Commonwealth Games. It also insisted that the sport continues to remain in the optional category. 

The Commonwealth Games Federation CEO David Grevemberg refuted reports that shooting has been dropped from the Birmingham Games roster on the organisers' request.

Grevemberg told PTI in an official response that the CGF would like to clarify that shooting has not been scrapped from the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, England.
