What an incredible weekend at the USAYESS Western Regional Junior Clay Target Championship!
We are so proud of the amazing athletes, coaches, families, volunteers, and supporters who helped make this event such a tremendous success. From the opening events to the final awards presentation, the weekend was filled with determination, sportsmanship, teamwork, and unforgettable moments.
Athletes competed in American Trap, American S***t, International S***t, and Sporting Clays, each discipline highlighting focus, skill, dedication, and composure. It was inspiring to watch these young athletes step up, trust their training, support their teammates, and represent their teams with confidence and class.
Throughout the event, we saw so many outstanding performances, personal bests, exciting finishes, and moments that reminded all of us why this championship means so much. Whether it was a big accomplishment, a hard-fought round, a first-time competitor giving their all, or teammates cheering each other on, the weekend was full of the moments that make this event so special.
The awards presentations were a perfect way to celebrate the hard work and dedication shown by so many. We were thrilled to recognize athletes and teams for their accomplishments and to see so many smiles, proud families, and well-earned honors. Every award represented hours of practice, commitment, perseverance, and heart.
This event is about so much more than competition. It is about growth, leadership, friendships, sportsmanship, and the opportunity for these athletes to challenge themselves and succeed. We could not be more impressed by the character shown throughout the weekend by the young people who participated.
A huge thank you goes out to all of the coaches, volunteers, scorekeepers, pullers, families, sponsors, and staff who made this event possible. Events like this do not happen without an incredible community behind them, and we are so grateful for everyone who gave their time and energy to support these athletes.
Most of all, thank you to the athletes for making this championship so special. Your talent, effort, attitude, and love for the sport are what make this event unforgettable year after year.
What an amazing championship it has been — and already, we are excited for next year. We cannot wait to do it all again and continue building on the memories, momentum, and success of this year’s event.
Thank you all for being part of an incredible USAYESS Western Regional Junior Clay Target Championship!
