The MN State High School Clay Target League has a great overview for trap shooting. Trap shooting is the main shooting discipline in both Eagan and the other schools in Minnesota. Eagan participates in the annual spring State Trap Shooting Championship at the Alexandria Shooting Park in Alexandria, Minnesota. ALL athletes can participate in the Tournament, regardless of experience or skill.
A sporting clays course can be laid out in a number of ways. Similar to hunting live birds, sporting clays is intended to challenge each athlete with clay targets being thrown at multiple angles from multiple locations.
Each station has a set of instructions notifying each athlete where the targets are coming from and how many will be thrown at a time. All squad members take turns at the same station and then move together after all squad members have shot the assigned targets at each station.
