This page is always under maintenance. Rules change regularly and it can always be improved. And I am not a saint as a trainer/coach.
No wisdom is absolute, but with this website you should be able to do pretty well at a competition.
First and most important rule in sport shooting
First and most important rule in sport shooting
Weapons should NEVER be pointed at anyone under ANY circumstances.
SAFETY must be the highest priority when handling a weapons, air or firearms.
The weapons MUST ONLY be loaded with ammunition on the range, with the weapon pointed down and when it is ready to fire.
Each weapon must be handled as if it is loaded at all times, even if you are certain that the weapon is not loaded.
The weapons must be transported safely both on and off the range.
When resting during a series, the weapon must have a flag in the chamber and for air weapons a cord through the entire barrel.
When transporting, a bolt-rifle must the bolt be removed and weapons without a bolt must have a flag in the chamber with the slide closed.
A trigger lock is recommended for ALL weapons.
Keep your finger of the trigger when not aiming.

The Royal Dutch Shooting Sports Association (KNSA) has set up a fun training program for juniors. This includes all aspects of training for shooting sports, both physically, mentally and technically.
I have translated this from Dutch to English to give trainers and associations a handle on shooting sports for juniors.
One thing is very important for juniors.
The young body is still developing and we must handle this carefully. This is to not disrupt the growth development and the young shooter does not have problems later.
One also learns a posture that is not correct to compensate for the heavy weapon. This incorrect shooting position is difficult to unlearn later.
In this part we will discuss two Olympic disciplines. These are also the two most practiced air caliber events worldwide.
Air pistol 10 meter
Air rifle 10 meter

The Dutch sports care foundation has set up a number of video training courses that are extremely suitable for shooting sports, among other things.
The training videos are in Dutch, but the essence of the training is easy to follow.
These training courses are suitable for all aspects of shooting sports.

Air guns are divided into two categories, Air Pistol and Air Rifle. These two disciplines are Olympic and the most common in clubs.

In the two disciplines we try to give shooters a document where they can try to improve their performance and or achieve their goals in sport shooting.
