Orlando in October…

Posted bydaveferrellPosted inUncategorized

Each October the Florida Swat Association hosts the annual International Swat Roundup at the Orange County Sheriff’s Office shooting range. This year fifty five tactical teams from around the world competed in the five event competition which will crown one team as the champion….. the best in the World!

What follows is a compilation of photos taken during the first day of the event focusing on the Tallahassee Police Department’s TAC Team. As of this writing, TPD sits in third place with one event to go on Friday………. the Obstacle Course…….

Team members discuss their game plan prior to the first event.
Team members get final instructions from an event judge prior to the competition.
And so it begins….
The team waits for the second competition of the day…..
The rifle raises up from the recoil as the spent shell casing flies past the front of the barrel……

After day one the Tallahassee Police Department’s team was in first place. They had an incredible day. Their skills are second to none as they displayed their abilities and competed against some of the best teams in the world. Kudos to these dedicated warriors who give their all during this competition and daily on the streets of their hometown. To them we say…..Good Job Gentlemen!

One thought on “Orlando in October…”

  1. Aside from a real callout where lives are on the line, this is the toughest competition in the world against a world wide field of competitors. The TPD teams goes down year after year and distinguishes itself quietly with the immense talent it brings. Great photos Dave! Tallahassee simply has no idea how lucky it is to have this team. May they crush it on the O course. MSA
