MONDAY, APRIL 21, 2025 — Beretta USA is proud to celebrate Team Beretta athlete Desirae Edmunds on her induction into the National Sporting Clays Association (NSCA) Hall of Fame. This prestigious honor recognizes Desirae’s outstanding career, dedication to the sport, and the lasting impact she’s had on the clay target community.
A native of Anchorage, Alaska, Desirae has become one of the most respected competitors in sporting clays. With an extensive list of titles and accomplishments, she’s celebrated not only for her performance on the course but also for her commitment to growing the sport and mentoring new shooters.
Desirae competes with the Beretta A400 XCel Sporting, a shotgun designed for precision and speed in clay target sports. Her success with the platform is a true reflection of her consistency, focus, and skill.
“Desirae represents everything we value in a competitor—grit, humility, and a passion for the sport,” said Trang Dam, Director of Marketing at Beretta USA. “Her induction into the NSCA Hall of Fame induction is incredibly well deserved, and we’re proud to have her represent Team Beretta and continue setting the bar for future generations.”
“It was a complete surprise when I first heard I was being inducted into the National Sporting Clays Association Hall of Fame. I am truly humbled to be receiving this prestigious honor. This is something that most shooters dream of,” said Edmunds. “It seems like a lifetime ago I pulled the trigger at my first clay and at the same time my journey is flying by at the speed of light. I am so grateful to have amazing teammates and sponsors that have made this dream a possibility. I fall in love with this sport more and more every tournament I attend, every Clay target I shoot and every person I meet. Although this will be one of the highest achievements of my shooting career, I am excited for this journey to continue.”
The induction ceremony will take place on October 23, 2025 at Hilton Hill Country in San Antonio, where Desirae will be honored alongside other top contributors to the sport.
