USA Shooting Rifle Coach Course (Level 1)

[coachjpg]

I'm looking into hosting a Level 1 NRA & USA Shooting Rifle Coach course at Harvard Sportsmen's Club this winter. Level 1 is for beginners. The coaches who go to the Olympics are Level 3.

Please let me know if you're interested in taking this class and becoming certified as a Level 1 Rifle Coach. Please forward this to any youth rifle coaches you know who might be interested. I took the Pistol Coach class, and it was well worth the time and the effort. My kids are getting into High Power now, so I need to get better at Rifle Coaching.

Thanks,

Looking forward to seeing details of time, date and cost. May be interested.

Details are TBD, depending on interest. It's a 2-day course, usually held over a weekend, cost is probably around $200. We'd need about a dozen students for the class to make sense. We have about half a dozen so far.

I am interested in any rifle training, but does level 1 assume that you are already 100% proficient with firearms? What I mean by that is already shooting 1" groups at 300 yards?

the coaches class is more geared towards teaching a juniors program than gaining proficiency with a rifle. that being said, a certain level of proficiency with 3P smallbore is tough to teach without. I have my Level 1 cert, and all the prerequisites for the level 2 (and I have no need for Level 3 or better).

Maureen Trickett runs a Level 1 coach class @ Reading Rifle and Revolver in the spring usually (at least she has for the last couple of years that I know of). its 2 full days, you learn a ton, and you're learning from a woman with a TON of experience with this stuff (She's the CMP Director for Massachusetts, and a Level 3 coach)
