Orion Scoring System Clinic



Erik Anderson Ph.D., the inventor of the Orion Scoring System, will be leading a series of clinics on Orion in conjunction with the Three Position Junior Olympics at Camp Perry, Ohio, June 26th and June 29th. The clinics are open to the public. This clinic will primarily benefit existing Orion users, however coaches and shooters interested in learning more about Orion are encouraged to attend as well.

Three main topics will be covered during the Camp Perry clinics.
1) Best practices for running a match with Orion.
2) Understanding protests using Orion.
3) Sneak peak at the upcoming “Orion Online” result system.

A special Orion air pistol demonstration will also be held at the Junior Olympic Progressive Position Pistol National Championship in Anniston, Alabama, July 7th. This clinic is intended for coaches and shooters who are new to Orion and who want to use Orion in their air pistol training and competitions.

The specific dates and times of the clinics are as follows:
• June 26th, 2011, 10 to 11AM in the Bataan Armory, Camp Perry, OH.
• June 26th, 2011, 1 to 2 PM in the Bataan Armory, Camp Perry, OH.
• June 29th, 2011, 10 to 11 AM in the Bataan Armory, Camp Perry OH.
• June 29th, 2011, 1 to 2 PM in the Bataan Armory, Camp Perry, OH.
• July 7th, 2011, 4:30 to 5:30 PM at the CMP Competition Center, Anniston, AL.

The Orion Scoring System is a new type of electronic scoring system that automates the scoring process for the shooting sports. With Orion, shooters fire on paper targets similar to traditional targets. Once fired, the targets are digitized using a commodity scanner. Finally, the target images are scored on a computer using Orion’s patent pending technology. Results are ready almost immediately.

Questions about the clinic or Orion can be directed to Erik Anderson at erik@shooterstech.net or 703 865 5570.
