Air Pistol / Junior Olympic Program

The air pistol / Junior Olympic Program at the DPC is headed up by E.C. "Coach" Wong through his NASSA organization.

NASSA stands for the "National Association of Shooting Sports Athletes" and was founded by E.C. "Coach" Wong. Coach Wong is the Assistant National Pistol Coach to Erich Buljung, National Pistol Coach of the U.S. shooting team. Both are based at the United States Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado. NASSA is a national club which is dedicated to developing the skills of all shooters, especially juniors. They are a family oriented club, which is comprised of athletes, coaches, parents, and others who are dedicated to the pursuit of shooting excellence.

Shooting has long been popular on the Olympic scene. In fact, shooting ranks 3rd in international popularity and only behind International Boxing and Track. Only here in America has competitive shooting been placed in an unfavorable light, and something must be done to foster the "Olympic Dream" in today's shooting athlete. NASSA's goal is to help each shooter attempt to achieve Olympic Gold.
