For many people in these days it is hard to train. Many ranges are closed around the globe. It is not only shootingsport that has this problem because of the pandemendic but many other sports too. For many it is difficult to find solution or motivation for practise, and as always those who will manage to do so during this horrible time will be strongest in the end. One of the reasons that makes it difficult is of course, ranges are closed. But also goalsetting since we do not know when it is over. Competitions are postponed or cancelled. This is hardest on the youngest i am guessing that has less of patience then older people. However, this may also be a hard time for older atlethes that do not have so many years left of their career. So what to do? I do not have the answers because this will be very individual what to do. But i can come up with suggestion and hopefully it can motivate.

There are clubs that has a possibility to lent out the targets or scatt so the atlethe can have it home it is very good for the training. There might be restrictions of having rifles at home or the house is not big enough. But it can also be good thing using a scatt too and there you do not need 10meters. By using scatt you can have goals using the measurements that is in Scatt. This might also be something that an atlethe will find good since the focus has a tendency to go to technical parts of the shooting instead of scores on the target. This can be fun and relaxing.
If a club have many scatts it is possible to be social (in todays world) and have the coach training the atlethes. Simple by using example Zoom. Here everyone can see eachother and it is possible to share the scatt system with everyone. That means the coach can sit at home watching the atlethe practise and comment and give tasks to next time. With this it is only the imagination that stops you.
The last but maybe the most important thing. What about finding a goal about yourself. Get to know yourself better in this periode? How do you react on the pandemendic time. What does it do to you and how can you learn from this that you can use it for the shooting later? Or for other things for that matter.

I hope that the pandemendic soon will be over. We will probably have to learn to live with covid-19 as it is will never go away. But with the vaccine soon coming lift will almost be the same as it was. Saying almost because it has changed the world and some of the things that has changed might be a good thing. How come? People have seen oppertunities and it is time clubs and atlethes do the same. Stay safe
