JUNIOR RIFLE PROGRAM – 2022-2023
In an effort to make the Junior Rifle Program more affordable and accessible for our Junior shooters and families, we have condensed the program so that we can offer it less expensive and more affordable.
For the 2022-2023 season, we have reduced the price of the program from $250 to just $95. The program will continue to offer the same instruction and range time, but we have eliminated sweatshirts, trophies, the awards banquet etc. If a sweatshirt is desired, we can arrange to get them at the price quoted by the graphics company.
We sincerely hope that this will make the program better fit into everyone’s budgets. The cost of everything is rising making everything at home more difficult. We did not want this program to be unavailable to any junior shooter that wanted to participate.
The season will run for 16 consecutive Sundays beginning with registration on 06 November 2022. The new coaching lineup has been busy reviewing how to improve the program and we think you will find it very interesting.
The program will include but may not be limited to the following:
1) Instruction in the safe handling and operation of firearms, (this will be stressed throughout the season),
2) Familiarization with the operation of the rifles,
3) Proper handling, posture, positioning, sight picture, trigger control, breathing, etc.,
4) Weekly range time, 60 shots, (3 position – 20 prone, 20 kneeling and 20 standing).
It is open to all 12-20 year olds as long as they are able to support a rifle in the standing position. No previous experience with firearms is required.
Please RSVP ASAP or, for more information please contact:

Great work team Nenameseck! What a good idea.
Do you offer anything where a member could sponsor a person for this class?

JUNIOR RIFLE PROGRAM – 2022-2023
We are pleased to announce the next season for the Junior Rifle program at Nenameseck at the club facility located at 150 Bacon Road in Palmer, MA. The season will run for 16 consecutive Sundays beginning with registration on 06 November 2022.
The new coaching lineup has been busy reviewing how to improve the program and we think you will find it very interesting.
The program will include but may not be limited to the following:
1) Instruction in the safe handling and operation of firearms, (this will be stressed throughout the season),
2) Familiarization with the operation of the rifles,
3) Proper handling, posture, positioning, sight picture, trigger control, breathing, etc.,
4) Weekly range time, 60 shots, (3 position – 20 prone, 20 kneeling and 20 standing).
5) Awards banquet at the completion of the program.
The purpose of the program is to teach precision rifle shooting, coaching young shooters the proper and safe handling of firearms while recognizing shooters as they improve their own personal scores. This program is not a competitive event but rather an environment where each shooter is encouraged to improve their personal skills through education and practice.
The program cost is $250 and includes all needed equipment including ammunition. (We are also working on a condensed, much less expensive alternative. Details will be made available at registration). It is open to all 12-20 year olds as long as they are able to support a rifle in the standing position. No previous experience with firearms is required.
