The event ran from May 23-27, 2026.
“It was a great competition, and I’m very happy with my performance and the outcome,” said Brian Burrows. Burrows won a bronze medal in Mixed Team Trap at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. “Nationals was an important step forward because it confirmed the work I’ve been putting in is translating into results in competition,” says Burrows. “It also keeps me in a strong position as I continue pursuing a spot on future World Championship and Olympic teams.” Burrows reports that in addition to making another National Team, he has qualified for World Cup events in Italy and China and is currently sitting in second place heading into the World Championship Selection Match this September.
“The World Championships in Qatar will be especially important,” states Burrows. It is the first opportunity for countries like the U.S.A. to earn quota places for the 2028 Olympic in Los Angeles. “My goal is absolutely to make a run at LA in 2028. It would be incredibly special to compete in an Olympic Games held in the United States, especially on one of the ranges where I grew up shooting,” says Burrows.
Derrick Mein continues his qualification streak for the U.S. Men’s National Trap team. He has qualified every year since 2018. Kayle Browning has been a fixture on the U.S. Women’s National Trap Team since the age of 15.
