About Shooting
Shooting dates back to the Middle Ages, St Sebastianus Shooting Club in Cologne , Germany was formed in 1463. The Olympic disciplines of skeet and trap stem from "clay pigeon" shooting which has been a popular sport since the late 18th Century. At the Olympic Games shooting used to be open that is men and women would compete openly against each other, but that changed for the Atlanta Games in 1996. A new Shooting event at the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games will be the Women's Trap and Skeet. |
