The Scholastic Clay Target Program (SCTP), in conjunction with USA Shooting, will hold the SCTP International-Style National Championships on July 24-29, 2017, in Colorado Springs, CO. Four spots on the USA Shooting National Junior Team will be decided from scores shot at this tournament. Registration will open on June 10 for all teams.

The American-Style Trap Nationals were held last July at the Cardinal Shooting Center in Marengo, OH. Student-athletes representing 28 states faced more than 961,000 clay targets during eight days of competition in the shooting disciplines of Trap, Skeet and Sporting Clays. Nationally, there are nearly 13,700 students and more than 2,900 coaches from 43 states participating in the SCTP that have been providing USA Shooting with skilled shooters for years—including 2016 Olympians Vincent Hancock, Morgan Craft and Corey Cogdell-Unrein.

A limited number of rooms are available now and must be booked prior to June 15 at the Double Tree Hotel in Colorado Springs for this week-long event.
