The Youth Trap League enjoyed a resurgence in 2025, with participant numbers increasing in all divisions.
“We had 48 kids this year, and they were a great bunch,” said Rick Nelson, a trap and skeet coach and president of the Cedar Rod and Gun Club.
On Sunday, participants in the league varying in age from 11 1/2- to 18-years-old gathered for a friendly end-of-season shoot, an awards ceremony, and to receive prizes. Maple City gunsmith C.J. Bachelder once again donated a new shotgun.
Finishing with the overall high score was Alex Eaton, who walked away with the coveted Top Gun trophy.
