Minnesota Trap Shooting Championship
EVERYONE IS INVITED
More than 350 high school teams featuring over 8,000 student athletes are expected for the 2025 Trap Shooting Championship, June 9th-17th at the Alexandria Shooting Park in Alexandria, Minnesota!
Single-day competition for each team!
All current League-registered student athletes and teams are invited to participate. A team requires a minimum of five student athletes to participate in the team competition. All student athletes are eligible for the individual competition.
Each team is assigned a tournament day as determined by their Class and Conference designation. This allows all teams and athletes to complete their competition (Novice, Junior Varsity, and Varsity) on a single day while allowing competition among teams with a similar team size. An athlete’s 100-target score is used for both individual and team competitions.
Qualify for the State Tournament at the Championship!
This Championship is the qualifying team competition for the State Tournament. The Minnesota State High School League’s State Tournament is on June 20th at the Minneapolis Gun Club in Prior Lake.
For more information, see tournament rules.
Registration Fee: $45
Includes an official tournament t-shirt, 100 targets, individual and team awards, and earned 25/50/75/100 straight patches.
