The Association was founded in 2006 through the merger of the Kantonalschützverband Bern (est. 1824) and the Bernisch-Kantonaler Sportschützen-Verband (est. 1921).
The flag shows in a stylized manner the Bernese emblem, added with the circles of a shooting target. Along the top border is a yellow stripe with black lettering of the associations name (German on the obverse, French on the reverse). (website)

Polizei-Bergschützen Biel/Bienne

(picture ^source)

The club was formed in 2010 following the merger of the Polizei-Schützen Biel (est. 1940) and Bergschützen Bözingen (est. 1834). Because of an unlucky decision of the city to close the central shooting range in 2007 (the land was used for industrial development), 14 clubs had to look for other ranges outside of the city. Thanks to the merger, the Polizei-Schützen got again an own 300 m range. (website | history)
