On Monday, February 18, 2019 Tom Wondrash, National Director of the Scholastic Clay Target Program announced the launch of their “new and improved” SCTP Virtual Scoring Platform for SCTP teams across the country. “The SCTP Virtual Scoring Platform is something we have been working on for a while” stated Wondrash. “Our goal was to provide a competitive platform for our teams that are located in more remote locations across the country or in areas where there are not teams close by to compete with”.
The SCTP Virtual Scoring Platform can be used by any current SCTP team and is accessed through the SHOT system on the website. SCTP teams can compete in Trap and Skeet via the SCTP Virtual Scoring Platform. Keep in mind, there is no charge to be part of any of the SCTP’s Virtual tournaments, they are all part of the $20 yearly athlete registration fee!
Wondrash explained, “using the SCTP Virtual Scoring Platform is easy. Teams shoot our standard distances and number of targets, the same as an “in person” match and record those scores in the virtual platform. Our first Trap & Skeet National Tournaments will begin April 15, 2019 and run for six weeks, all teams must be registered by Sunday, April 14th at 8:00 PM CST. Scores must be entered in the system by midnight of each Sunday, no exceptions!
First, second, and third place teams will receive shotguns that can be used for team fundraisers or just used for team guns. We will also award 2 other firearms by random drawing of all other teams that participated and entered scores for the entire 6 weeks, that’s 10 firearms in all! 5 for Trap and 5 for Skeet!
