NEW DELHI, Feb 10: ISSF Academy has entered into a partnership with former India shooter Shimon Sharif to strengthen its education programmes and “elevate” coaching standards in the country.
Sharif, the first rifle shooter from Delhi to represent India at the ISSF World Cup, received a letter from the ISSF Academy, in which it has confirmed its association with the rifleman.
“The ISSF Academy is pleased to partner with Mr Shimon Sharif as part of its commitment to providing shooting sport coaching education in India,” said Karoliina Nissinen, head of administration at ISSF Academy, in the letter. In order to meet the rising demand for high-quality shooting training centres in India, Sharif, who runs the Topgun Shooting Academy, last year expanded its reach with the launch of a new branch in Sector 50, Gurugram.
