Scholastic Clay Target Program (SCTP)
CPF&G is working towards the creation of a Team to compete
in the Scholastic Clay Target Program and set up an association
with this organization. The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF)
has started SCTP to encourage the youth of today to enjoy the
great tradition of Trap Shooting.
The club is looking for middle, junior and senior high
school students in grades 6-12 that have not reached the age of
20 to form teams for the SCTP. There are two SCTP divisions: The
Junior Division for 6th,
7th and 8th
grades, or the Senior Division for 9th
through 12th grades.
The club would need a minimum of 5 students in either division.
Membership in Country Pond Fish and Game Club is not required to
shoot on a team.
Anyone who is interested should contact

To build upon this great shooting sports
tradition, the Board of Directors of the National Shooting Sports
Foundation (NSSF) has established the Scholastic Clay Target
Program (SCTP). Joining NSSF in this nationwide effort is the
ATA, NSSA and the NSCA and their affiliated state associations,
as well as state wildlife and natural resources agencies from
across the country.
The Scholastic Clay Target Program offers
middle school, junior high and high school-age youth an
opportunity to enjoy the excitement of breaking clay targets with
a shotgun in a safe and positive environment. The program has
three primary goals:
- Firearm Safety-The
safe handling and use of firearms is a major program
focus. Basic knowledge of safety and proper handling and
storage is stressed.
- Character Development-
Team sports have long been known to mold youth into solid
citizens. This program stresses the importance of
commitment, responsibility, leadership, teamwork,
self-confidence and self-discipline to both individual
and team success.
- Lifetime Sport- The
Scholastic Clay Target Program offers a level playing
field for all ages and both genders. There are rewards
for those who seek competition as well as for those who
prefer the recreation and social aspects.
