K-80 Raffle Tickets Available Now!
The annual Krieghoff K-80 shotgun raffle is now underway, with one lucky winner taking home a dream gun worth $20,345 when their ticket is drawn during the National Sporting Clays Championship. You do not have to be present to win.
Krieghoff has generously donated a K-80 Sporting model with a tapered flat rib on 32-inch barrels. It will be enhanced with beautiful Symphony Nitride engraving and a category 002 #3 Sporting adjustable stock and Schnabel forend.
The annual K-80 raffle is one of the major fundraisers for the USA Sporting Clays Team and also supports the Krieghoff All-American programs for both NSCA and NSSA. Only 407 tickets will be sold at $100 each. To purchase your tickets, call Glynne Moseley, 210-688-3371 ext. 270. The raffle is open only to U.S. residents.
Note: The Krieghoff shotgun winner must have a valid U.S. social security number, as NSSA-NSCA must collect tax and report the winning value to the IRS. We cannot ship firearms outside the U.S

Support USA Sporting Clays Team in 2024 Competition
In 2024, the USA has the privilege of hosting both the World English Sporting Clays Championship at M&M Sporting Clays in Pennsville, NJ, May 14-19, and the World FITASC Sporting Championship at Game Unlimited Sporting Clays in Hudson, WI, June 27-30, 2024. These two events will bring the world’s best shooters together to compete for world titles in Sporting Clays and FITASC, with our NSCA USA Sporting Clays Teams again representing the USA.
Selection to the USA Sporting Clays Team is the pinnacle of NSCA achievement. The support of our shooting family allows 40 of the best competitors to represent the United States this year at the World English Sporting Clays and World FITASC Championships.

This year, we are recognizing our best Sub-Junior shooters by adding a new Sub-Junior Team category. At this time there are no other Sub-Junior Teams for our Sub-Juniors to shoot against in world competition; however, they will be shooting as individuals at the 2024 World English Sporting Clays and World FITASC Championships.
With both events being held in the USA, the cost to send a USASCT member to one of these events to compete will cost about $2,500. You may sponsor a team member of your choice for $2,500 to cover the cost for them to travel to one of the world events, or you may donate any amount to support the USASCT as a whole.
Our “Sponsor a Team Member” fundraising campaign has been very well received since 2021, so we are again looking for people to sponsor a 2024 Team member’s effort to bring home the gold for the USA. A generous donation of $2,500* will cover an individual member’s trip to a world championship, and you will receive recognition for your support. The USA Sporting Clays Team is also a 501(c)(3) organization, which makes your donation tax-deductible.
Your continued support will help ensure the best shooters in the world will be able to represent the United States in the future. We do not believe it is fair or acceptable to only partially fund the team members’ participation, given their hard work, dedication, and the resources they have already expended to make the team. It is also unfair to spend money to the point that it will affect next year’s team.
If you cannot fully sponsor an individual member, a tax-deductible donation of any size is valued and appreciated. To join our effort, please contact Glynne Moseley at 210-688-3371, ext. 270 or gmoseley@nssa-nsca.com.
