Ole Mill NRA Disabled Shooting Sectionals come to Griffin
The 2010 Ole Mill NRA Disabled Shooting Sectional will take place at the Spadling County 4-H facility in Griffin, Georgia on Saturday, March 6. The two-day event will begin with an adaptive shooting clinic followed by relays of competition on Sunday, March 7. Winners will be honored at an awards ceremony immediately following the matches.
The Ole Mill Sectionals will feature competitions in precision 3-position air rifle and international air pistol. Winners in each category will be invited to Colorado Springs, Colorado for Paralympic training at the Olympic Training Center.
"We are very excited about Georgia Competitive Shooters, Inc. participation in the 2010 NRA National Disabled Indoor Sectional Championships," said Disabled Shooting Manager Vanessa Warner. "We're looking forward to introducing competitive shooting to individuals with physical disabilities in the Metro Atlanta area."
Disabled Shooting Sectionals are open to those with disabilities in three separate classes: those who are visually impaired, those with measurable or visible permanent disability in their upper limbs, and those with sufficient upper limb strength to fire a gun without assistance. Though match officials will be providing firearms for the match, competitors are welcome to bring their own gun.
