Austin, TX -(Ammoland.com)- A Girl & A Gun Women’s Shooting League (AG & AG) announced today that it will host four all-ladies squads at the Benelli Tactical Shotgun Championship from August 6-8, 2015, at Rockcastle Shooting Center.

Rockcastle CEO Nick Noble was happy to welcome more squads. He said, “I am pleased that there has been so much interest among A Girl & A Gun members. We are interested in increasing the number of women who participate in our matches.”

“This is a great match and our ladies wanted to get in on it,” said AG & AG Founder Julianna Crowder. “Rockcastle is a wonderful facility that really fosters a family-style atmosphere. It’s a great place to socialize with other competitors, which compliments our AG & AG culture of strengthening the community among shooters.”

The 4 squads will comprise AG & AG 32 members from throughout the country along with 4 squad coaches, who are professional shooters sponsored by Benelli. Prior to the event, the ladies will attend an exclusive shotgun clinic with Ryan and Dianna Liedorff Muller.
