About the Toowoomba Clay Target Club
Our club has been around for over one hundred years. We moved to its current location (10648 Warrego Highway Charlton), in 1966. The Toowoomba Clay Target Club relies heavily on volunteers from its membership for all the duties that need to be performed at the Club. This allows us to keep membership fees down and be able to afford the continual upgrade of equipment that is required for a well functioning Club. As they work for free, please be courteous to them.
Currently the Club offers the following Clay Target disciplines – Trap (Down the Line), Skeet , Tower and Sporting. Targets are 110 mm in diameter and travel at speeds around 70 kph. This can be challenging for beginners!!!
