Triple Nickel Shooters

 

 

The American Legion Junior Shooting Sports Program is a gun safety education and marksmanship program that encompasses the basic elements of safety, education, enjoyment, and competition.  Shooters use the .177 caliber air rifle.  Both males and females can participate through American Legion sponsorship.  Disabled youth are encouraged to join, as competitive shooting is a sport that creates an equal playing field for all competitors.

 

Contact your local American Legion Post, Sons of The American Legion Squadron, or Unit 555 Auxiliary for information about affiliating as a club or individual.  Junior Shooting Sports is a three-part program that combines the Basic Markmanship Course, Qualification Awards, and Air Rifle Competition making it a well-rounded activity.

 

Triple Nickel Shooting has been a successful program with as many as 11 current shooters across all categories.  In 2018, our team won The American Legion Alabama Commander’s Cup, and three members shot at the 2019 Junior Olympics.

 

In 2021, our team won The American Legion Alabama Commander’s Cup for the second time.
