We train our students to achieve 'Renowned Shot' status at the National Shooting Championship, a critical benchmark that signifies the level of consistency needed to qualify for the Indian Team Selection Trials. Success in competitive shooting is not accidental. At our Gottigere facility, we combine our 16-lane indoor range with a data-driven approach to ensure every student makes measurable progress. ### From Foundation to Podium Every shooter starts with the fundamentals: breath control, sight picture, and stance. Once these are mastered, students progress to competitive air weapon training. We use SCATT telemetry to provide immediate visual feedback on barrel movement, allowing us to correct technical errors before they become long-term habits. ### Why 'Renowned Shot' Matters Achieving 'Renowned Shot' status is more than a title. It confirms consistency across senior, junior, and youth categories, proving that a shooter is prepared to handle the intense pressure of state and national competition platforms. Our coaching team, which includes active national and international medalists, guides students through the exact scoring requirements needed to reach this level. ### Mental and Physical Conditioning Shooting is a game of extreme focus. We integrate sports psychology workshops to improve match-day temperament and concentration. Physical fitness sessions focusing on core stability and balance are standard, because a steady body is the foundation of a steady shot. ### Building a Competitive Environment We host regular internal matches and practice sessions that simulate actual match-day conditions. This environment prepares our students for the nerves they will face when it matters most. Whether you are aiming for your first state-level medal or preparing for the Indian Team selection, we provide the mentorship to get you there. ## About Eklavya Sports Shooting Academy We are Eklavya, a community-driven academy in Bengaluru where beginners grow into state and national-level shooters. Our coaches are active competitors themselves, meaning the advice you receive is battle-tested in real championship conditions.
