Girls Rifle team. I'm guessing from the 40s

[Reno-Kid]

Well, as recently as the 70's, it was fairly common to have rifle ranges in public schools. Competitions between schools and districts was the norm, both boys and girls. In San Leandro (next to Oakland, to the south), there was a range that was active into the 80s, as I recall; used by a club not affiliated with the school, but active nonetheless.)

Same was true with DeAnza community college. It was also part of the Criminal Justice degree program. Long gone now, replaced with woke faculty.

Sutter High School has a small-bore rifle team and shotgun team (trap-skeet-sporting clays) girls and boys. Quite a few get full ride scholarships to different universities. UNR (University of Reno Nevada) used to be one till the Dean went woke.
