Susan Nattrass in a shooting competition at the
Montreal Olympic Games, 1976, by M. Burns
Susan Nattrass (born 1950) was the first woman
trapshooter to compete in the then mixed event at the Olympics in Montreal in 1976. She dominated her
sport, winning seven world championships in women’s trapshooting. Her lobbying for separate events for
trap and skeet for women resulted in these competitions being held for the first time at the 2000
Sydney Olympics.
