The "trap" event, officially the ISSF Olympic trap, is an event held at the Summer Olympic Games. The men's event was introduced in 1900, and held at most editions of the Games (except 1904 and 1928, when no shooting events were held, and 1932 to 1948) and every edition since 1952. As with most shooting events, it was nominally open to women from 1968 to 1980; the trap remained open to women through 1992. Very few women participated these years. The event returned to being men-only for 1996, though the new double trap had separate events for men and women that year. In 2000, a separate women's event was added and it has been contested at every Games since. There was also a men's team trap event held four times from 1908 to 1924. [1]

The ISSF World Shooting Championships are governed by the International Shooting Sport Federation.

For the shotgun events only, there is an additional World Championship competition in odd-numbered years. These extra competitions are not numbered.

Olympic skeet is a variant of skeet shooting, and the specific variant used in the Olympic Games. The discipline is sanctioned by the International Shooting Sport Federation. Two throwing machines at different heights launch a series of 25 targets in a specific order, some as singles and some as doubles, with the shooter having a fixed position between them. Both men's and women's competitions consist of five such series. The top six competitors shoot an additional series as a final round, on targets filled with special powder to show hits more clearly to the audience. The competitors use shotguns of 12 bore or smaller. All actions are allowed, including double barrel breech loaders, semi-automatic or others, but not pump action guns.
