At the age of six, Miko Andres from the Philippines is thought to be the world’s youngest competitive practical shooter. Practical shooting is a sport in which participants shoot rapidly at multiple targets around an obstacle course. His father says:

“As a growing, normal kid, Miko is also into other children’s games. He enjoys the company of his schoolmates.

“Miko is very young but is determined to excel in the practical shooting sport,” says Mike.

“He has been taught a lot of discipline and respect.

“Miko, I and his team coach, constantly talk about the dangers of the sport and we are always reminding him that he is in a ‘big boys’ game and that safety of of the utmost importance.”
