Winchester has announced it will continue as the official ammunition of the Scholastic Clay Target Program (SCTP) in 2021. SCTP has become one of the fastest growing organizations in competitive shooting with a focus on the popular clay sports. 

With ammunition difficult to find this year, the SCTP program was in jeopardy. Several teams were unsure how they would be able to continue shooting. Winchester answered the call and provided qualified SCTP teams the opportunity to purchase ammunition. This spring, truckloads of shotshells criscrossed the country, ensuring another successful season for thousands of young shooters.

Led by over 3,500 coaches, more than 18,000 young athletes compete through SCTP, which is part of the Scholastic Shooting Sports Foundation (SSSF), an organization that introduces young people to the shooting sports.

Winchester also stakes claim as the official ammunition of the SCTP International Team, comprised of the top 15 SCTP shooters nationwide in the international disciplines.
