California sheriff is a fifth-generation lawman, has won many shooting competitions.

I sometimes wonder if they have police-only competitions so that the cops are not out-gunned by the better non-LEO shooters.

Yep, it's called
PPC (Police Pistol Combat) Competition. I used to shoot in these when I was LEO. They have Tactical Police Competitions also.

I knew that police-only competitions exist. I was only wondering about the rationale.

Note that the California Sheriff came from a family of Texas lawmen.
