The Compak Sporting Grand Prix of Cyprus was a premier international clay target shooting competition held from April 1st to April 2nd, 2017. This prestigious event brought together top-tier global competitors to shoot at the world-renowned Nicosia Olympic Shooting Range in Nicosia, Cyprus.
Event Highlights & Visual Analysis
Based on the official event promotional cover, the design captures the unique architectural layout of the facility alongside its professional international affiliations:
Background Visual Design: The banner features a wide-angle photograph of the Nicosia Olympic Shooting Range complex. It displays structured, green-roofed shooting pavilions, meticulously maintained lawns, and concrete pathways nestled directly against a vast, dry earthen valley floor and terraced desert hillsides—ideal for clear clay target visibility.
Sanctioning Architecture: Globally authorized by FITASC and coordinated domestically in partnership with regional Cypriot entities represented by their official insignia on the right:
Nicosia Shooting Club (Σκοπευτική Οργάνωση Λευκωσίας - 1968)
SKOK (ΣΚΟΚ - Cyprus Shooting Sport Federation, founded in 1983)
Global Ranking Leg: The central panel establishes the competition as an active point-scoring phase for both the international Beretta FITASC Cups circuit and the worldwide Gamebore FITASC World Rankings (signified by the classic red three-person podium graphic).
