1. Will my athlete be required to compete?
2. What is the difference between American Trap (ATA) and International (also called Olympic trap or bunker) trap?
3. Where do you compete?
There are three bunker ranges in the State of Florida; ours, one in Palm Beach, and one in Gainesville. The team also shoots at national competitions in Ohio, Michigan, Texas, Arizona, and Puerto Rico.
While these events may feel far away, the trips are the best team bonding events and where lifetime friendships are formed.
We are also proud of the fact that trap shooting events will be unlike any other competition you have attended. While everyone is there to do their best and win, sportsmanship prevails. It is not unusual to find a coach from one team helping members of another, sharing of equipment when something breaks, and a bond like no other that forms between competitors.

No. We hope that you will be interested in competitions because that is where many life lessons are taught. However, competition is not required. You may compete in as many or as few competitions as you prefer.
