KATRA, Jun 3: A series of skeet shooting practice sessions were conducted for NCC cadets at Shri Mata Vaishno Devi University (SMVDU) under the aegis of Air NCC.
The sessions provided cadets with an excellent opportunity to gain practical exposure to the sport of skeet shooting and develop essential shooting skills.
The practice sessions witnessed enthusiastic participation from NCC cadets, who learned the fundamentals of target shooting, safety procedures, and techniques required for accurate shooting.
Skeet shooting demands a high level of concentration, precision, coordination, and quick reflexes, making it an ideal activity for developing discipline and mental alertness among the cadets.
Through these multiple practice sessions, cadets were able to progressively improve their shooting abilities and build confidence in handling shooting equipment under proper supervision.
The initiative also encouraged cadets to explore opportunities in competitive shooting sports. Skeet shooting is one of the recognized shooting disciplines in the Olympic Games and has produced several distinguished sportspersons at the national and international levels.
The sessions served as a valuable platform for cadets to experience an Olympic sport firsthand and inspired many to pursue excellence in shooting and other sporting activities. The cadets expressed their appreciation for the opportunity and described the sessions as both educational and motivating, contributing significantly to their overall development and sporting spirit.
