Youth on our team learn the safe and responsible handling and use of fi****ms; discover the joy of contributing to a shared team goal; and experience the privilege of serving others in our community. WHAT IS OUR MOTTO?
“Service Before Self”
WHAT IS OUR MISSION? To use shooting sports as a vehicle to effectively prepare and build up Godly young men and women to be the future leaders, parents, and citizens of America. WHAT ARE OUR CORE VALUES? Honor - Courage - Commitment
WHAT IS SASP STEEL SHOOTING? The Scholastic Action Shooting Program is part of SSSF, the Scholastic Shooting Sports Foundation. SASP Steel shooting is centered around 4 courses of fire, shot from a static position, under the supervision of the Range Officer. The shooter's performance is based on the time he or she has taken to shoot all targets, with misses resulting in time penalties. You can read more on their website here. WHO CAN JOIN? Any mature youth (10 yrs and up) who meets the following requirements may join our team.
• You must be a full-time student (public, private, home school, or college) to join the team.
• Youth 14 and older must serve in a team leadership position after one
year on the team.
• Youth 10-13 must have parent or guardian present for all practices
and competitions.
• Youth under 10 by exception only. DO I NEED ANYTHING? Ear and eye protection, as well as fi****ms, can be borrowed from the team, however, it is strongly recommended that you purchase your own ear and eye protection if you intend to shoot regularly. You are responsible for your own am******on. HOW MUCH DOES THIS ALL COST? New team members are required to pay a one-time joining fee of $200. This joining fee includes the cost of their team competition jersey, team practice shirt, NRA Pistol Training, and first year entry to SASP. Shooters provide their own am******on, but discounted am******on can be purchased, at cost, at all practices. There are no monthly club dues, however shooters are expected to pay their way on the team through community service. In exchange for the community service, Lone Star Shooters has arranged for sponsors to cover individual fees for range time, team fi****ms, targets, and general team expenses. These sponsorships totaled over $1,700 per shooter last year…and are 100% FREE to Lone Star Shooters youth who complete their community service requirements. WHAT ARE THE COMMUNITY SERVICE REQUIREMENTS? Each team member is required to perform at least 10 hours of community service per quarter to remain on the team (most serve much more). These service hours can be performed as a team, through your church, or through a youth service organization like Venture Crew 886, Boy Scouts, Trail Life USA, American Heritage Girls, Girl Scouts, or 4H. WHAT TYPE OF GUNS DO YOU SHOOT? Rimfire pistol, centerfire pistol, and rimfire r***e (optics/iron sights). The guns used in speed shooting are semi-automatic. Optics are not allowed for pistol shooting. WHERE/WHEN DO YOU PRACTICE? Live fire practices are held at Trinity Armory (Cleveland, TX). Practices are typically held on Sunday afternoons (3pm - 6pm).
