Shooting
Description

Shooting is a target sport categorised according to the weapon or target used. A total of four events, the Men and Women Air Rifle and Air Pistol will be competed in for the Singapore 2010 Youth Olympic Games. Shots are fired at a ten-ring target. The higher score is awarded when a shot touches the line between two zones. The top eight shooters in the qualification round proceed to the finals. In the finals, the ten rings on the target are sub-divided into 10 'decimal' score zones (10.0 to 10.9), the highest score for a shot being 10.9. The shooter with the highest total score based on the addition of the qualification and finals score is the winner.
