🇺🇸 25 Years. We Remember.

On September 11, 2001, our nation was forever changed.

Today, we remember the nearly 3,000 people who lost their lives and honor the families, first responders, military members, and communities who carried their courage and sacrifice forward.

As we teach the next generation about responsibility, character, service, and community, we also have a responsibility to remember the history that shaped our nation.

May we never forget those we lost and the heroes who answered the call.

🇺🇸 SCTP IS HELPING BUILD TEAM USA’S NATIONAL TRAP TEAM!

The results are in and 16 athletes have earned a place on the USA Shooting National Team for International Trap. 10 of those athletes had SCTP as part of their path to Team USA.

That means more than half of the athletes selected to represent the United States in International Trap came through the Scholastic Clay Target Program. 🇺🇸

6 of 8 women. 4 of 8 men. 10 athletes. One incredible SCTP connection.

For some, SCTP was where they first discovered competitive shooting. For others, it became an important part of their development along the way. They learned from their coaches, competed with their teammates, built confidence on the range, and developed the skills and discipline to take their shooting to the next level.

And today? They’re representing Team USA on the international stage.

👏 Congratulations to all of the newly selected National Team members and to the coaches, teams, families and supporters who helped them get there!

From SCTP teams across the country to representing the United States. This is what the pathway can look like. 🇺🇸

And a special shoutout to our SCTP alumni:
🏆 Aeriel Skinner
🏆 Carey Garrison
🏆 Taylor Dale
🏆 Madelynn Bernau
🏆 Carmen Cunningham
🏆 Micaela Velasquez
🏆 Jack Brosseau
🏆 William Browning
🏆 Todd Hitch
🏆 Will Hinton

🇺🇸 HALF OF TEAM USA'S S***T NATIONAL TEAM STARTED WITH SCTP!

The results are in, and we couldn't be prouder!

Following Fall Selection, 16 athletes have been selected to the USA Shooting National Team for International S***t and eight of those athletes are SCTP alumni.

Meaning 50% of the athletes selected to represent the United States in International S***t came through the Scholastic Clay Target Program. 🇺🇸

These athletes didn't start on the international stage.

They started on youth teams.
They learned the fundamentals.
They competed alongside their teammates.
They put in the work.
And they continued chasing bigger goals.

Now, they're wearing the USA Shooting uniform and representing our country at the highest levels of the sport.

👏 Congratulations to all of the newly selected National Team members!

And a special shoutout to our SCTP alumni:
🏆 Madeline Corbin
🏆 Julia Nelson
🏆 Gracie Hensley
🏆 Karsyn Ross
🏆 Vincent Hancock
🏆 Christian Elliott
🏆 Conner Prince
🏆 Aidin Burns

Your accomplishments are something our entire SCTP community can celebrate, and your journey is an incredible example for the young athletes stepping onto an SCTP range today.

🇺🇸 Hard work happens long before you step onto the range.

This Labor Day, we're celebrating the athletes who put in the practice, the coaches who show up week after week, the parents who make the road trips, and the volunteers who make every event possible.

Every target broken is backed by hours of dedication, practice, teamwork, and perseverance. 💪🎯

To everyone who works hard to make SCTP possible, thank you!

Enjoy your Labor Day. We'll see you on the range!
