Selection Criteria
The purpose of the selection trial is to determine their shooting potential.
The selection trial consists of three stages:
 
Anthropometric Measurements: This involves measurement of the length of the arm (upper arm and lower arm), length of index finger, weight and height.
Applicants must be born between 2nd Jan 2001 and 1st Jan 2002, with height preferably not less than 1.45m and BMI within the range of 18 to 24.
  Calculate your BMI using this formula:

           Weight (kg)          
Height (m) x Height (m)
  Physiological Assessment: Tests will be conducted to determine the applicant's ability to hold a steady shooting position and to determine heart rates while doing the activity.
  Shooting trial: This consists of assessments in technical handling, shooting posture and grouping of shots.
All three stages of the selection trial will be completed in a day.
