This year the event, known as "The Shoot" was held in Fairbanks and saw Troopers from across the state compete against Royal Canadian Mounted Police | Gendarmerie royale du Canada from across the Yukon Territory. Colonel Bryan Barlow also competed for the Commissioners Cup which he won.

Did you know we have a pre-academy recruit program? This program allows applicants who have completed the hiring process to train and learn with troopers prior to attending the academy. The pre-academy recruits are paid full recruit wages to do ride-a-longs, shadow specialty units, dispatch and evidence technicians, and work out daily to better prepare them for the upcoming academy. The pre-academy program significantly reduces the time it takes for applicants to get hired and start becoming immersed in the culture of AST.   Visit our website today to find out how you can become a pre-academy recruit at AlaskaStateTrooper.com
