Midlands Air Ambulance Charity is delighted to launch its first clay shoot event, promising an exciting day of fun and friendly competition. The event will take place on Saturday 31st May at the West Midlands Shooting Ground, one of the region's most historic shooting venues.

Proudly sponsored by JT Hughes Group, a leading Shropshire based car dealership, the event will follow a traditional 100 bird sporting format. Participants will take on twelve clay shooting stands over the course of two hours, offering an exciting challenge for experienced clay enthusiasts. Beyond the competition, there’s plenty to explore, including sponsor stands and the charity’s helicopter demonstration pod.

Team bookings are now open, with various timeslots available throughout the day. Each team can include up to six members, and all participants must hold a valid shotgun license. Entry is £75 per person. Attendees can also pre-order a limited edition Clay Shoot branded Jack Pyke gilet for £29.95, a fantastic way to remember the experience and make more missions possible.

Jo Bailey, group events lead at Midlands Air Ambulance Charity, said:

"We are extremely thankful to JT Hughes Group for sponsoring this event. As our first ever clay shoot, we’re excited to welcome seasoned participants to West Midlands Shooting Ground. This is a fantastic opportunity to enjoy a great day out with friends or colleagues while supporting our vital work across the Midlands.

This event is a fantastic opportunity to come together for an enjoyable day while supporting a service that plays a critical role in our community. The lifesaving missions the charity undertakes every day make a tangible difference when it matters most.”
