About WCGC
The West Chester Gun Club and Athletic Association is a trapshooting Club located in the heart of Chester County, PA. WCGC is one of the oldest clubs in the state, established in April 1898. We are celebrating our 125th Anniversary in 2023. We have four lighted trap fields able to throw single and double targets, and an archery range for your enjoyment.
WCGC is open to the public for trap practice and registered shoots. Archery access is members-only. We are an ATA Registered Trap Club and NRA member.
We are proud of our recent membership survey results, which show an extremely strong satisfaction rate and high praise for our friendly, welcoming atmosphere, great staff and well-maintained facilities and grounds.
Trapshooting
- We have four lighted trap fields that offer standard Trap from 16 to 27 yards. Our traps are well-maintained and set to ATA standards to ensure a consistent shooting experience.
- Each trap house holds a Pat-Trap clay throwing machine. We use Canterbury wireless voice release systems for shooter convenience.
- We have seating and gun racks at each trap, as well as covered seating in our large pavilion located between traps 3 and 4.
- Our heated and air-conditioned clubhouse is open to all with ample seating, restrooms, and soft drinks for purchase.
- 12-gauge shotgun shells are available for purchase at the clubhouse. Limit: one box per round of trap purchased.
- A patterning board is available for shooters to dial in their point of impact. Please bring paper or cardboard with you.
Required Safety Checks
Safety Checks are mandatory for all shooters – Members, Guests and Public Non-Members – who have not shot trap at our club but have previously shot organized clay sports or have significant firearms experience.
Safety Checks are offered on Sundays except when special events are being held at the Club. Register at 11:30am in the club office.
A Safety Check consists of shooting one 25-target round of supervised trap. To pass, the shooter must fully demonstrate proper trap safety, firearm handling and trap etiquette.
Upon successful competition, you will be issued a Safety Check Card.

Archery
The West Chester Gun Club’s archery range is on the east side of our 22 acres. All Club memberships include access to our Archery Range. There is not a separate Archery-Only Membership.
Recently leveled and planted with new grass, we continue to improve one of the most convenient archery ranges in the Delaware Valley.
