About

Since our founding in 2008, the ICTSF has brought together nations and athletes in the spirit of competitive excellence and sportsmanship in the shotgun sports of DTL and ESP. We oversee the official rules, coordination, and hosting of World Championship events that rotate each year and across hemispheres:

🟢 ESP – held in odd-numbered years
🔵 DTL – held in even-numbered years
🌐 Northern & Southern Hemisphere rotation ensures global accessibility

Our mission is to unite international clay target communities, offering every participating country a voice in how Championships are run. Most events follow the respected CPSA Rulebook (Booklet No.1), with minor adaptations tailored to each competition.

Host nations have included:
England • Wales • Ireland • Australia • South Africa • New Zealand • Canada

Whether you’re a shooter, official, or enthusiast, you’re part of a growing global community that shares a passion for precision, discipline, and international competition.
