As we wait for the results from the first relay, here are some numbers and information about the competitors!

The 2009 National Junior Air Gun Championships has brought nearly 290 competitors from 27 states to Camp Perry, Ohio, and shooters have traveled from as far as Hawaii and Alaska to shoot against other top juniors in the country.

Shooters may enter either the Sporter or Precision class based on the type of rifle and equipment they use, and are then grouped into categories according to age:

• Junior: ages 18-20
• Intermediate Junior: ages 15-17
• Sub-Junior: ages 14 and under

There is no age minimum to compete at NJAGC, and this year there are competitors as young as 12 years old.

We'll have results from the first and second relays up as soon as possible, so bookmark NRAblog for the latest news and results!
