LMS ARC Link Goals and Objective:
The Rifle Club is intended to provide students with opportunities to build discipline in competitive sport at an age appropriate level and in a manner that allows the greatest amount of participation. The club will provide an initial involvement in school related competitive sports for 7th and 8th grade students.
The rifle program, particularly in the early middle school years, focuses on teaching the fundamentals of sportsmanship, team participation, and athletic competition in a setting that allows participation among students with a broad range of athletic ability.
Principal parts of a rifle, action types, and how they function will be demonstrated. NRA rules for safe gun handling will be explained, applied and adopted through the club for future use when around or using rifles. Handling rifles in a safe manner will be demonstrated and stressed.
Projects:
The program is designed to assist with athletic development, skill development, and a basic understanding of shooting. It is also aimed at encouraging student participation in recreational sporting events. Students will learn and demonstrate proper shooting techniques for four positions; prone and kneeling, sitting, and standing. They will be evaluated in accordance to
their score.
