ISSF waives membership fees in 2021 due to impact of COVID-19 crisis Saturday, 2 January 2021 The International Shooting Sport Federation (ISSF) has waived membership fees for its National Federations this year in response to the coronavirus crisis. The Administrative Council of the ISSF decided to scrap the $500 (£366/€412) fee in 2021 "due to the unprecedented situation amid the 2020 pandemic", which has caused significant financial issues across sport. The ISSF is one of the few Olympic International Federations able to forego such income as its President, billionaire Vladimir Lisin, is one of Russia's richest men. Members of the ISSF agreed to lower the fee by a two-thirds from $1,500 (£1,100/€1,200) under a series of constitution changes approved in December 2019.
