Registration is now open for 2025 CMP Junior Rifle Camps. These popular three-position camps are solid tools in developing youth athlete strengths within the physical and mental aspects of the shooting sports, while refining trouble areas that may need more attention.

Designed for high school-age students and team coaches, this year’s Junior Rifle Camps will be held around the country in June and July. Participants in the camps receive lessons on intermediate and advanced marksmanship skills through different exercises and demonstrations, all led by current collegiate rifle athletes. 

More about Junior Rifle Camps: “The CMP Junior Air Rifle Camp mission has always been to help juniors who have a desire to improve their marksmanship skills and to develop leaders on and off the range. In 1997, the Director of Civilian Marksmanship Emeritus, Gary Anderson, established the Junior Air Rifle Camps while serving as Director of Wolfcreek Shooting Complex in Atlanta, Georgia, setting the precedent for how the program would be conducted. The camps received support from the CMP in 1999 and were fully adopted as a CMP program in 2000. Since then, the Junior Air Rifle Camps have expanded their footprint through the addition of new camp disciplines, new host locations across the nation and first-class instruction. Though many things have changed, the core mission of the Junior Rifle Camps has remained the same—provide quality instruction to support athletes in reaching their goals.”

Note that all campers must have at least one adult leader in order to attend.
