}}Adam Joseph Vella (born 12 June 1971) is the National Shotgun Coach of the Australian Team. A former Australian olympic clay target shooting champion. Vella was born in Melbourne and is a Commonwealth Games four times gold medalist and an Olympic bronze medalist.[1]

Adam Vella is the only shooter who has ever ranked #1 in the World at the same time in Trap and Double Trap.

Despite being the No 1 ranked shooter in the world in 2007, Adam missed on the selection to the 2008 Olympics. His international performances were not taken into consideration as per the AISL Olympic selection criteria and the position was won by Craig Henwood after beating Adam by 1 target.[2]

Adam Vella represented Australia in 2016, his third Olympics. http://www.shootingaustralia.org/news/2016/shooting-australias-final-two-athletes-nominated/.

Adam Vella retired from professional Shooting and since December 2016 he has been appointed by Shooting Australia as the National High Performance Shotgun Coach. “Adam’s appointment comes after a competitive recruitment process and at an important time for the sport of shooting, as an Olympic and Commonwealth Games Medallist and former World Number One in two of the three shotgun disciplines Adam comes with an impeccable sporting pedigree. But most importantly he comes as the right person to lead our shotgun team. We need someone who knows the sport from the grass roots to the podium, someone who also has the strength of character to ensure that the sport of shooting challenges itself and delivers on its commitment to being better than it is today. Adam Vella is the unanimous choice of our selection panel" commented Shooting Australia CEO Damien Marangon. http://www.shootingaustralia.org/media/media-releases/2016/adam-vella-confirmed-as-national-high-performance-shotgun-coach/

Adam Vella also conducts clay target shooting events through his business Oz Shooting https://www.ozshooting.com.au
