STORM Clay Target Team season has come to an end! The team would thank all this years' team sponsors for all their support for their generous donations are used to supply the athletes with team uniforms, refreshments, supplies needed to go to the State Tournament and other necessary tools for the teams' success. The Storm team is made up of 26 Watkins Glen Students and 20 Odessa-Montour students. After 5 weeks of competition, they ended their season at the NY State Championship Tournament in Bridgeport, NY where 38 out of 46 team members competed. This competition brings together over twenty-five hundred youth shooters throughout NYS over these three days. Quite a sight to see and hear! That was 250,000 rounds fired and not a single mishap or injury. In Fact, Clay Target Club has never had a single injury since they began in 2008! Many of our Storm athletes shot their personal best scores at the state competition, made new friends and are ready for next year! The athletes and coaches would like to express our sincere appreciation for your contribution and support, all of which adds to our continued success and growth year after year! This year was USA Clay Target largest enrollment of participants nationwide. A staggering 53,250 athletes, over 10 thousand coaches & volunteer members and 1,815 School, colleges & homeschool teams participated in the sport this school year. AND.......
