YOUTH TRAPSHOOTING
CHAMPIONSHIPS

World Shooting & Recreational Complex - Sparta, il
ATA EXECUTIVE
DIRECTORS WELCOME
Welcome to the 2015 AIM National Youth Trapshooting Championships!
We’re glad you’re here and thankful for your year-round support of the AIM program.
The AIM program continues to grow, offering a balanced program of registered trapshooting
not only during this Championship Tournament, but all year long with the Monthly Shooting
Events, State Championship Tournaments and the Online Singles and Handicap events.
This year’s Shootin’ Showdown will include the CZ-USA 9mm Handgun Event for the first
time ever. We’ve also revised the Rifle Event and the 3-Gun Tactical, plus the 28 Gauge
and International Events are back. The Parent /Coach competition is also back this year as
is the Annie Oakley shoot out (Saturday), this year sponsored by Nobel Sport.
Registered competition begins on Sunday with the AIM National Youth Doubles
Championship sponsored by Browning, followed by the AIM National Youth Handicap
Championship sponsored by Winchester. Monday and Tuesday will once again be the
days of the AIM National Youth Singles Championship sponsored by Remington, 100 of
each per day.
Due to the large number of early morning practice shooters, we will be offering practice
on ALL program traps from 7:30 to 8:30 on Sunday, Monday & Tuesday mornings. That’s
right, the entire line of fields that will be used each day. You MUST buy your practice ticket
at East or West practice buildings (NO practice tickets will be sold at the program traps)
to give to the scorekeeper on the program field of your choice. No practice squads will be
allowed to go to the line on the program fields after 8:30, however East and West practice
will be open all day, just as in the past.
Evening events will include the ice cream social on Saturday, the Hog Dog party on
Sunday and the Browning/White Flyer/Winchester exhibition shooters and pizza party on
Sunday. Check the schedule of events on Page 6 for other daytime activities also.
Take a look at the list of AIM Title Sponsors in this program and be sure to visit them
and get signatures for the Sponsor Spotlight. While you’re there be sure to thank these
companies for their support of the AIM program. If you’ve got a purchase decision to make,
be sure to consider our sponsors. They helped us, so try to help them!
Thanks again to all competitors, parents and coaches to devoting your time, talents
and resources to participation in the AIM program, and our great lifetime sport. Some of
the friendships you develop through participation in the AIM program and ATA registered
trapshooting, could very likely go on for the length of your life. Mine have!
Good Luck and Good Shooting!
