Shooting
Discover how the CHIJ St. Joseph's Convent Shooting CCA builds focus and discipline through physical and mental training, and see how our students have excelled at national competitions.
About
In Shooting, members develop self-discipline and focus through a structured and engaging sport. Before engaging in dry firing and live firing at the school range, students undergo physical training to build strength and endurance, essential for maintaining steady aim and control.
Additionally, they learn and apply sports psychological skills such as relaxation techniques, which help them stay calm and composed under pressure, and visualization techniques, which enable them to mentally rehearse and perfect their performance. This combination of physical preparation and mental conditioning makes shooting an excellent activity for fostering a disciplined and focused mindset in students.
Some of our student athletes have demonstrated remarkable skill and tenacity, culminating in their advancement to the Finals in the recent National Shooting Games Championships. Through consistent effort and unwavering focus, these students have excelled in their respective categories, showcasing their talent and commitment on a national platform.
