NRA/ATA TRAP COACH CLINIC: As a result of the NRA/ATA partnership, NRA re-wrote the NRA Shotgun Coach School curriculum to focus on trapshooting. As this is a really new program, it is not yet specifically mentioned on the NRA web site, but you may e-mail me to request a lesson plan for this course. The new NRA National Coach Trainer is Marcus Raab at mraab@nrahq.org. Do visit the links below describing the Coach program and how you can host an NRA/ATA Coach Clinic in your area:
