Incorporating the Finale of the European Cup

The 21st European Championship of Compak Sporting, which concurrently hosted the definitive Finale of the European Cup, was the premier continental clay target shooting tournament of 2015. Held from April 24th to April 26th, 2015, this prestigious championship brought together the elite shooters of Europe to compete at the world-class ASD TAV Club Olimpico Foligno in Perugia, Italy.

Event Highlights & Visual Analysis

Based on the official championship poster, the tournament integrated elite athletic branding with top-tier industrial backing:

  • Top Header Photograph: Displays a view from the venue's clubhouse balcony, showing beautifully maintained lawns, lush green trees, white hospitality pavilions, and decorative pink flowers, capturing the club's excellent facilities.

  • Central Graphics: The year "2015" is presented in a bright, stylized textured font (yellow, blue, and green numbers) wrapped around a central black shattered clay target graphic that frames the official circular FITASC globe crest. A striking green, white, and red banner ribbon cuts diagonally across the top, paying homage to the Italian national colors.

  • Host & Sanctioning Identity: The name "FOLIGNO" runs vertically down the right border in red lettering. The lower right footer features the organizational seal of FITAV (Federazione Italiana Tiro a Volo) alongside the official logo of the host venue, ASD Tiro a Volo Foligno Club Olimpico.

  • Global Series Integration: The poster highlights the match as an active selection leg for both the Beretta FITASC Cups and the Fiocchi FITASC World Rankings, with dominant corporate sponsorship from premium firearms and ammunition giants Beretta and Fiocchi.
