Match Name: TSSA – Low Light League (Presented by Tampa Bay Photonics)
Platform: TSSA (Tactical Shooting Sports Association) Event Type: Low Light / Night Vision Match Sponsor: Presented by Tampa Bay Photonics
1.0 Operational Overview
Own the night.
The TSSA Low Light League is a premier night fighting event designed to test your ability to navigate and engage targets in zero-light and low-light environments. This is a fully suppressed, rifle-only match featuring 4-5 dynamic stages that mimic real-world night operations.
• Presented by Tampa Bay Photonics: We are proud to partner with Tampa Bay Photonics for this event. They will be hosting a dedicated Demo Stage, allowing participants to demo high-end night vision optics and thermal imagers.
• The Demo Experience: This isn’t just a static display—you will have the opportunity to shoot live fire using their demo units. Competitors are also invited to bring their own suppressed pistols to utilize specifically during this demo portion.
2.0 Divisions
Competitors must register for one of the two following divisions:
• WML (White Light): For competitors utilizing standard Weapon Mounted Lights.
• NVG (Night Vision): For competitors utilizing personal Night Vision Goggles and IR Lasers/Illuminators.
3.0 Squading & Lighting Protocol
Please read carefully to ensure you get the experience you want.
• Default Stage Conditions: By default, stages will be set up for White Light engagement (low ambient lighting/target illumination).
• The “NVG Protocol”: If a squad consists entirely of competitors with personal Night Vision (NVG Division), that squad may opt to run the stages in total darkness (IR only).
• Squading Strategy: If you possess personal NVGs and wish to run under full darkness, you must squad together. Mixed squads (WML & NVG combined) will run under White Light conditions to ensure safety and target visibility for all shooters.
4.0 Equipment Restrictions (STRICT)
Safety and noise discipline are paramount for night operations.
• Rifle Match: The main stages are Rifle Only.
• Pistols: Suppressed pistols are permitted for use at the Demo Stage ONLY.
• Suppressors Mandatory: All firearms (Rifles and Demo Pistols) MUST BE SUPPRESSED. No unsuppressed fire is permitted after 6:00 PM.

• Safety Indicators (Glowsticks): Glowsticks/Chemlights will be provided to all competitors. These must be used as personal visibility markers as directed by the ROs to ensure safe status is visible at all times.
