Trap and Field's Around the ATA article from the Atlantic Provinces ATA Delegate
January, 2022
Happy New Year from the Atlantic Provinces!
To all gun club managers in the Atlantic Provinces: If you haven’t already done so, it’s time to start thinking about your club’s 2022 ATA shoot schedule. Registered shoot and league applications are available on www.shootata.com and should be forwarded to the Atlantic Provinces Secretary Janaya Nickerson, for approval. Janaya’s contact info is available on www.shootatlantic.com. Reach out to me or Janaya if you need any help with the process.
If you’re looking for a way to encourage ATA registered shooting at your club, the ATA provides active gun clubs with a limited number of complimentary memberships for first time members. If you haven’t received yours, contact me and I will inquire.
Here are a couple of shoot dates for those planning their 2022 shoot schedule.
The Calgary Firearms Centre will be hosting the 2022 Canadian Trapshooting Championships June 29-July 3, 2022. The club is located just south of Calgary, Alberta near the community of DeWinton. Shoot information is available on the Canadian Trapshooting Association’s webpage – www.shootcanada.ca.
The 2022 Atlantic Provinces ATA Provincial Shoot will be hosted by the St. John’s Rod and Gun Club September 1-4, 2022. The club is located near St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador and the four trap club is the largest in the Atlantic Provinces. Club members started a multi-year Trap Improvement Project in 2019 and will have it completed in time for the shoot. Shooters will be treated to new concrete walkways on all four trapfields, two new traphouses, improved landscaping, a well maintained club and fine Newfoundland hospitality. Stay tuned to www.shootatlantic.com for the latest updates and information on this year’s shoot.
