LOCATION:
CMP Marksmanship Center (North) - a new facility in Camp Perry, OH There will be 80 electronic target firing points. Visitors and spectators are welcome.
ELIGIBILITY:
All participants should qualify as outlined in the state guide to participate at the national level.
RULES:
The current Progressive Position Air Pistol Rules will govern. A copy can be downloaded from the USA Shooting web site www.usashooting.org under the “Youth Programs” link.
QUALIFYING:
Individual:
All shooters should fire in a state qualifying competition. Individuals may not participate at the national level in both the “A” and “B” Divisions. A parent, guardian or coach must accompany individuals under age 18. CMP, NRA or USA Shooting will not accept responsibility for minors traveling alone!
Team:
Each state may send several three-person teams for “Mixed-Position” and for “Unsupported-Position”. Teams that lose a member for some reason may replace that person with another member of the same club or school. Teams may use mixed A and B type pistols for competition. The NRA state (“all-star”) teams will comprise a separate awards category. Athletes may represent their state team in this category and also be part of a (different) club team in the club team match category.
COACH/TEAM LEADER:
Each team must have a designated coach to be responsible for their teams. This person will be responsible for arranging travel for the teams and for team conduct while at the championship. Assistant coaches may attend at their own expense.
COURSE OF FIRE:
Competitors will shoot two match courses of 40 shots. One course will be fired each day. Olympic style finals for the top 8 open and top 8 female individuals based on two day aggregate scores in the standing One-Handed category (regardless of Division A or B equipment) will be held shortly after the second course of fire. The final for females is considered a demonstration event in 2009 and winners will be awarded medals. A female finishing in the open top 8 will also qualify to compete in the open final and may fire both.
Team totals will be based on the total of two-day match scores, not including finals. The individual National Junior Championships will be based on the total of the two 40 shot scores plus the 10 shot final and athletes must shoot from the Standing One Handed Position.
COACHING:
Coaching is allowed in all of the Supported Positions. However coaches may not assist in shooting the shot.
Coaching assistance in the Unsupported-Positions on the firing line will cease when the preparation period begins.
SQUADDING:
If possible, all team members will be squadded on the same relay (except where team members share equipment). This will allow teams to plan other activities before or after shooting.

Teams should not depend on the same level of sponsorship as previous years. Failure to attend the final and award ceremony may result in loss of the travel subsidy.
Receipted airfare and mileage are the only expenses subject to partial reimbursement under the sponsorship travel program. Using multiple vehicles will NOT increase the mileage subsidy.

Competitors in both “A” and “B” Divisions will be awarded special Gold, Silver and Bronze championship medals and certificates. The next five places will be awarded certificates.
To be named Individual National Champion for this event a competitor must participate in the One-Handed category.
Note: The reason for this special parameter is to urge competitors into the traditional shooting position so they can easily graduate into Junior Olympic or NRA programs. Category winners will be Champions in their designated category.
