Arizona Junior High Power Rifle Team

............ ..........................

The Arizona Junior High Power Rifle Team is sponsored by the Arizona State Rifle & Pistol Association (ASRPA). The team is open to NRA HP classified Arizona youth between the ages of 14 and 20. Team members shoot local matches during the season (Sept - May), practice like crazy June & July, and participate at the National Rifle Matches at Camp Perry, Ohio in August.

Juniors are encouraged to own their own equipment. While determining what is best to own, most equipment including AR-15 rifles, calibered in .223, are provided free of charge. Bullets are donated by Sierra, and the kids get to assemble their own ammunition using Hodgdon Powder at extreme discount.

Team Membership Requirements.
