    MN Youth Basketball Virtual Outreach Sessions

    MN Youth Basketball Virtual Outreach Sessions presented by Jimmy John’s and brought to you by www.myas.org Thank you to the 94 youth basketball association leaders representing 85 youth basketball associations from around the state of Minnesota, for attending the Virtual Outreach Sessions. One of our many goals as an organization is to link regional volunteer youth sports programs with others statewide and that is what we intend to do. We are here to provide guidance, support, and assistance to every youth basketball association in the state of Minnesota. Our goal is to unify the Minnesota youth basketball community which will foster the 5 C’s: 1. Compliance 2. Communication 3. Connectivity 4. Consistency 5. Conciseness As the 2020-2021 winter community-based basketball season draws closer and closer, we need to ensure that the entire Minnesota Youth Basketball Community is #strongertogether. We know many youth basketball leaders have expressed much concern about the upcoming season due to the unknowns we have at this time. We know that a task force was created by the MSHSL to determine the direction of winter sports. A decision will then be made by the MSHSL Board of Directors in October. This decision will not dictate what happens at the youth level, but it will greatly impact how we move forward as a youth basketball community. At the MYAS, we have proven that with the correct safety precautions and guidelines in place, we are able to administer youth basketball tournaments in a safe way. That is our #1 priority for your youth basketball association to do the same this winter.

    A History of the United States National Outdoor Smallbore Rifle Championships 1919-2013 By Hap Rocketto August 25, 2013 i Acknowledgement This history is an attempt to capture the events and personalities that make the National Rifle Association’s National Outdoor Smallbore Rifle Championship such a powerful and interesting story. Covering the years 1919 through 2002 was done under the auspices of the NRA’s publications division, as source material for The National Matches: 1903-2003 The First 100 Years. The reports of the years 2003-2010 were written for, and published by, Precision Shooting Magazine until that publication’s demise and thereafter they were specifically written for this history. This is not a formal history in the sense that bibliography is not appended nor are sources cited. However, much of this story was collected from the rich store of information archived in the written reports found in the shooting journals Arms and the Man, The American Rifleman, Tournament News, Shooting Sports USA, and Precision Shooting Magazine as well as the programs and bulletins of The National Matches and NRA Shooting Trophies.

Old ajo highway visitTucson.org 2012worldcup.tucsontrapandskeet.com (520) 883-6426 | toll free (888) 530-5335 COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. USA Shooting is pleased to introduce the official 2012 Media Guide for the Tucson World Cup. Since participation in the first Olympic Games in 1896, American shooters have won over 100 medals. Though the events have changed over the years, the spirit of the Games remains. The title of the media guide is “Creating Legends on the Road to London” because American shooters have been so successful in the past and the future is equally lustrous. While there are many opportunities to shoot competitively in the United States, USA Shooting offers world-class athletes the opportunity to achieve Olympic and Paralympic dreams. “To me, the concept of wearing the USA on my back in the Paralympic Games in 2012 means that I have found my way through the fear factor. I have found a new sense of self and I have not only leveled the playing field from Special Operations soldier to Paralympic athlete . I have eclipsed all previous expectations of who I wanted to be and created a new pinnacle that exceeded all previous achievements and I did it without the use of my legs,” said 2012 U.S. Paralympic Team nominee Eric Hollen. Hollen is not only a top-notch individual, but also a very talented and hard-working shooter. Holllen was awarded USA Shooting’s 2010 and 2011 Paralympic Athlete of the Year distinction, and most notably, he was recently nominated to the 2012 U.S.
