Project Leap began by first selecting 23 young shooters out of a total of 57 shortlisted shooters and the first leg of the rifle camp held at Balewadi concluded earlier this week.
Out of the 23 kids, twelve are from Pune, three from Hyderabad and Secunderabad, two from Jabalpur and one each from Mumbai, Bhubaneshwar and Gujarat were selected. The list includes twelve girls and eleven boys.
Mahima Agarwal from Jabalpur and Elanevil of Gujarat, incidentally, are already part of the national junior team and represented India at the recently concluded Junior World Championships in Suhl, Germany.
The other 11 in the Air Pistol category are currently undergoing training in Pune under Korean Coach Kim Seonil.
