SCTP

Scholastic Shooting Sports Foundation
Through team-based shooting tournaments, student athletes learn skills and life lessons that emphasize positive character and citizenship. Safety, teamwork and leadership are the core of training and competition. The foundation’s Scholastic Clay Target Program promotes trap, skeet and sporting clays and several Olympic disciplines. As the official feeder program of the USA Shooting program, SSSF is a path to the U.S. Olympic Shooting Team.

This year there was another increase in attendance as 640 young shooters met at Cardinal Shooting Center for the annual State competition. The name of the event has been changed to the DAVE SCHOCK SCTP DAY in honor of the Ohio State Youth Director who passed away on April 20, 2022.

Ian Counts and Gage Price do some puppy sitting before they take the line.

On Monday morning of the State Tournament, the SCTP teams parade to the central entry building for introductions.

After the introductions, the teams are anxious to get to their assigned traps and begin their day of competition.

Parents, coaches and spectators gather along the trap line to watch the kids. Many of the teams have tents and tailgate picnics set up behind the trapline so they have a place to rest and eat between events.

The Centerburg shooters are all smiles as they enjoy cooling off with some delicious Velvet Ice Cream. The annual ice cream social is a tradition provided by the Ohio State Trapshooting Foundation.

VELVET ICE CREAM was the ice cream of choice this year for the Monday SCTP event. Strawberry appeared to be this year’s favorite but chocolate and vanilla were available as well and there was plenty to go around!

Senior Jake Shutt was the lucky winner of the Storm Shooting coat donated by DK Sales for the Monday SCTP State competition. Jake was one of the original members of the Zoar Road Gun Club youth shooting team. He was well respected by his team members and will be missed as he has “aged out” of the youth program. Jake is a wonderful example of the quality youth shooter our SCTP program is working so hard to produce. Congratulations
