Girl with a rifle

Shooting with and without support at 10 meters from the target - Almaty schoolgirls, keen on air rifle shooting, show off their marksmanship. First, zero in, and then shoot for the count. The maximum number of points for the winner is a hundred. And the girls knock it out.

City schools presented their teams to the military-sports game, which is held all over the country. According to the rules, four girls (aged 14 to 17) and their leaders compete in them. These competitions have been held for 10 years. The tournament has strict safety requirements. And an important mission is to cultivate in young people a love for the right heroes and idols - integral, steadfast, patriotic, as well as a desire for military-applied sports.

In the overall team competition, School No. 102 took the victory; its student Maria SHEK showed the best result in her individual performance, shooting with a rest.
