Shooting News: Two foreign coaches all set to join shooting camp by Nov 18

The National Rifle Association of India is soon expecting three foreign coaches at the ongoing shooting camp at the Karni Singh Shooting Range in New Delhi. The coaches in question are Oleg Mikhailov (rifle), Pavel Smirnov (pistol) and Ennio Falco (shotgun). Oleg, it is learnt, reached the capital city and will follow protocols as per government regulations. Since the mandatory quarantine in order to join the ongoing SAI-NRAI training camp — to be held until November 10 — is seven days, the national governing body has made a decision to let him join the second half of the camp. While the Ukrainian rifle coach’s joining is more or less confirmed, it remains to be seen if Italian Falco will be available. There are indications that the skeet coach is set to miss the camp. All the three coaches’ contract including Falco’s was recently renewed by SAI but it is unclear if he has accepted the offer.
