National Junior Shooting Camps, conducted at ranges around the
country, provide a high quality training opportunity to junior
shooters in rifle, pistol and shotgun disciplines. Top-level
coaches in the appropriate discipline provide top-quality training
for the athletes.
The first level of camp is the Intermediate Camp for both rifle
and pistol, held during the appropriate phase of the National Rifle
and Pistol Championships at Camp Perry, Ohio during the summer
months. NRA also conducts junior shooting camps at the advanced
level for rifle, pistol and shotgun shooters. A competitive
selection process determines attendees to the National Advanced
Junior Shooting Camps.
