Training: After the selections are made, team training is Sundays from 6.00pm until 8.00pm.  The team will also go to shooting competitions around the Wellington region. If selected the shooters will be expected to commit to attending a number of club and inter-club competitions as well as inter-school shooting events through the season. The fees cover all club membership and affiliations, coaching, training materials, use of club shooting equipment and 500 rounds of ammunition.
