What is ATA and why is it different than SCTP?
ATA stands for the Amatuer Trap Association. This is the organization that oversees all the competitions for the American style of trapshooting. When someone says they shoot ATA, it simply means they are shooting the American style of trap. The Scholastic Clay Target Program is a youth organization that develops young shooters and gets them involved with shooting the American style of trap (ATA).
