More Ways to Compete and Win Than Ever at the 2019 SCTP National Championships

SCTP Teams from across the United States (29 states to be exact) are planning, packing, practicing, and getting ready to head with their families, teammates, and friends to the 2019 SCTP National Championships being held at the Cardinal Shooting Center in Marengo, Ohio, July 13-20, 2019.

“We may reach that 2 million target mark!” Said SCTP National Director, Tom Wondrash. “That’s 11-12 Semi loads of Clay Targets thrown in just this week! This will be the largest National Championship in the history of the SCTP and I’m sure White Flyer (manufacturer of the clay targets and founding sponsor) is quite pleased to see this!”

Teams will be competing in Trap, Skeet, Skeet Doubles Sporting Clays, Double Trap, Handicap Trap and Bunker Trap. Most would think that would be enough however for 2019, SCTP has added several additional competitions for SCTP Teams to participate in including…

At the end of competition on Friday, several numbers will be posted and those athletes whose scores end in that number will be eligible to shoot another round of Skeet Doubles where the highest shooter will win the Beretta Shotgun!
