We’re excited to announce the start of the 2025/2026 Ten Ring Junior Shooters season! Our program for young athletes will run from October 1, 2025 through February 20, 2026, providing a supportive and competitive environment to grow skills in precision air rifle shooting.

Season Kickoff & Mandatory Orientation – October 1, 2025

Our season kicks off with a mandatory Orientation Meeting for all athletes and parents/guardians:

• Date: Wednesday, October 1, 2025
• Time: 6:30 – 8:30 p.m. (please arrive a few minutes early to check in and set up)
• Location: Liberty Center classroom at the Deer Creek Shooting Range (Western Montana Fish & Game Association)

During the orientation, we’ll cover:

• Meet the coaching team
• Season overview (practice schedule, competitions, and events)
• Athlete expectations and team standards
• Equipment guidelines and requirements

Please note: We will not be shooting during this meeting — it’s strictly orientation and preparation.

Any athletes ages 10–18 who may be interested in joining the team are encouraged to come learn more about our program.

2025/2026 Practice Schedule

Practices are generally held every Wednesday and Friday evening at the Liberty Center classroom at the Deer Creek Shooting Range. Athletes should arrive by 6:00 p.m. to set up their equipment and be ready for the 6:30 p.m. classroom session, followed by shooting practice. Practices will conclude by 8:30 p.m..
