Youth Rifle Team
The Youth Rifle Team normally uses the indoor range to shoot from December to March. Matches run from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM on Tuesday evenings at the Itasca Gun Club. Young shooters between the ages of 11 – 18 may sign up if they can demonstrate safe rifle handling. Both females and males, non-club members and club members may sign up to join the Youth Rifle Team.
All shooting is supervised by an adult Range Safety Officer. Parents are welcome to come and watch, as the indoor range includes an observation room, where you can watch the shooting from behind glass, so you don't need hearing protection when .22's are being fired.
The 2019-2020 Youth Rifle Team will begin on January 13th at 6:00 PM. It is open to all youth 11-18 years of age. It runs until April 28th 2019. All equipment is supplied, but participants may use their own rifles. The first night is sign up and equipment assignment. Parents and guardians will be required to store and bring each assigned rifle and equipment to each session. There may be some travel to competitions if available. This is a precision NRA 4 position training. Safety is foremost, students will learn proper positions, breathing, sight alignment and trigger control. Awards are presented as they advance in ability. Hope to see you there.
