Revamped Article:
Yakutia's precision shooting star, Alexander Kolesov, heads up the cutting-edge Shooting Center in chilly Yakutsk. This ain't no secret – the bigwigs running the show in the Sakha Republic's administration have confirmed it.
During a visit to the center last weekend, Yuri Trutnev – Deputy Prime Minister of Russia and the President's representative in the Far East – couldn't help but gush over Yakutia's sniping history dating back to the Great Patriotic War. He reckons it'll serve as a damn good example for those setting foot in the training grounds.
Construction on the center, which kicked off in December 2022 at Trutnev's orders and is now ready for enrollment, isn't just about helping out the Far East; it's got country-wide ambitions. Alexander Kolesov, the new boss, has experienced the wars firsthand and knows what it takes to secure a win.
Trutnev's emphasized that there's plenty of work ahead to make this puppy shine. The polygon's gotta keep its tech up-to-date and stocked with ammo, so the trainees' getting top-notch instruction. The region's boss, Aisen Nikolaev, underlined the center's importance, stating it'll churn out fighters who know their way around a gun. The sniper training's gonna be in capable hands – led by elite instructors.
Spanning over 400 hectares, the training polygon's not messing around. It's planning to work with schoolkids, whip SVO participants, military peeps, and brass up law enforcement officials and civilians.
The Shooting Center's not just about training up grunts. It's meant to nurture talent, bolster sports culture, and host competitions in the region. It's all about advancing the shooting sports game in Yakutsk.
Alexander Kolesov, the director of the Shooting Center in Yakutsk, demonstrated his expertise not just in precision shooting, but also in sports like football, having participated in local leagues in his spare time. In his vision for the Shooting Center, he intends to foster a robust sports culture, organizing football tournaments alongside the sniper training program, aiming to make Yakutsk a hub not just for shooting sports, but for all sports in the region.
