Supporting the next generation through shooting sports, firearm safety, education, competition, scholarships, and responsible firearms ownership.
Part of TSRA's mission is to support junior programs, shooting competition, and hunter education throughout Texas.
Texas offers young people an incredible variety of opportunities to get involved in shooting sports. Whether they are beginners, intermediate competitors, or advanced athletes, youth can participate in programs ranging from local clubs to Olympic-style shooting sports.
TSRA works with organizations across Texas to support youth competitions, coach training, equipment grants, scholarships, firearm safety education, and other programs that help young shooters develop skills, responsibility, confidence, and lifelong friendships.
Youth programs help teach responsible firearm handling, hunter education, marksmanship fundamentals, and safe participation in the shooting sports.
Young shooters can participate in recreational and competitive programs at the local, state, national, and even Olympic level.
TSRA also supports the adults who make youth programs possible through coach training, seminars, and educational opportunities.
TSRA works alongside organizations that provide youth education, shooting sports, conservation, and competitive opportunities.
Youth programs depend on dedicated coaches, volunteers, families, clubs, and organizations across Texas. If you are interested in volunteering, coaching, supporting a youth program, or learning how to get involved, TSRA can help connect you with available opportunities.
