Now this bit is interesting, it would be nice to see such an initiative in the UK

Other prizes include two (rifle and pistol) scholarships from Lakshya, an NGO that supports the academy, in the youth category

Didn't we use to have similar sponsorship in the Anno Domini meetings from the likes of Parker Hale and Smith & Wesson back in the seventies and eighties. I can't remember the total number of events shot or the attendance but that was something pretty impressive, so much so that none of us ever wanted to miss a year.
