On 17 June 2021, the International Shooting Federation announced that Jordan would be granted a seat in the 10m air pistol competitions at the women's level in the upcoming Olympic Games.[4] This was the first time since the Sydney Olympics in 2000 that a Jordanian player qualifies for the shooting competitions in the Olympic Games. Shooting was the first sport that represented Jordan in the Olympic Games during the first participation in the 1980 Moscow Olympics.
