Illinois Junior High Power

Welcome to the ISRA Junior Highpower Team web site

The ISRA Hard Dogs would like to thank the NRA Foundation for grants received in the past year.  Because of the generosity of the Friends of the NRA, our junior program has been able to expand and allow for many more juniors to become involved in high power rifle competition.  Some of the items provided to our program from grants in the past year include:  new high power rifles, rifle cases, spotting scopes and tripods, rifle cleaning kits, and various safety gear. 

The Hard Dogs would also like to thank the Illinois State Rifle Association and the NRA Foundation for block grants received in the past year.  The block grants helped to offset costs related to matches and recruiting/fundraising events. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The ISRA Junior Highpower Team, known as the Hard Dogs, has a long history of outstanding results in highpower competition. Several national championships have been won by the Hard Dogs. Many past Hard Dogs have excelled in college and in life. Being a member of the team is as much about building character, and learning responsibility, as it is about gaining marksmanship skills.

The team members come from all parts of Illinois. Team members range in age up to 20 years old. With safety being number one, the lower age limit is dependent upon the junior exhibiting the physical and mental ability to safely handle an AR15 rifle.

I'd like to welcome you to look at the pictures posted on this site and look at the links shown at the left.

If you are a parent or junior with an interest in learning more about the Hard Dogs, I would like the opportunity to talk with you.

If you are a former Hard Dog, I would like to hear from you too. You have valuable information that I'd like to gather about what made your years on the team special to you.

If you are a past, current, and/or possible future sponsor of the team, I would like to thank you for all that you do for highpower shooting in general and specifically for the Hard Dogs.

You can follow the Hard Dogs on Facebook by joining our group at Illinois Hard Dogs.
