The trap event will follow from May 24-26. The selection committee will consider the scores of the ISSF Junior World Cup, Suhl, Germany, for the junior athletes participating in the event, as the national selection trial 2 coincides with it.. Scores of such shooters will not be marked "zero". In view of this, there will be no separate selection trials for junior athletes in the shotgun category..

The skeet event will run from June 1-4, followed by the trap competition from June 5-8, with each discipline concluding in finals on the last day of their respective schedule..

To qualify, shooters must have recorded a minimum score of 110 (seniors) and 100 (juniors) in trap and skeet (Men), and 95 (seniors) and 90 (juniors) in the women's events..
