Hundreds of American colleges and universities offer shooting sports
programs. Competitive shooting has been a tradition all across the nation,
and now it’s available to Elon!
What are Collegiate Shooting Sports?
Varsity teams compete in the shooting disciplines of rifle, pistol, air gun
and shotgun.
Marksmanship is an acquired skill within the grasp of every student. The
shooting sports require only interest, attention to safety and dedication to
achieving shooting excellence. Shooting teaches respect for safety and
helps to develop sportsmanship, leadership, responsibility, concentration and self discipline.
One of the most attractive aspects of college shooting is that it is a co-ed
sport. Men and women compete as equals. Discover the challenge of competing against your personal bests and stretching your limits of skill. Every student, regardless of sex, size, physical or athletic ability, has the opportunity to participate in college shooting at some level.
