About the USA Clay Target League<\/strong><\/p>\n

With over 52,000 participating athletes in the 2023-2024 school year, the non-profit\u00a0USA Clay Target League<\/a>\u00a0is the largest clay target shooting sport program in the world. The League offers trap, skeet, sporting clays, and 5-stand leagues to secondary and postsecondary schools across the country.<\/p>\n

The League is the only 100% school-approved clay target shooting sport program in America and the League\u2019s co-ed and adaptive nature are key attractions to schools nationwide. The League is fully Title IX compliant with both male and female athletes competing on the same team. Additionally, it\u2019s an \u2018adaptive\u2019 sport, which allows students with physical disabilities to take part.<\/p>\n

The League\u2019s priorities are safety, fun, and marksmanship \u2013 in that order.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The League is the safest sport in school, with not one reported injury since the inception of the League in 2001. Each athlete must complete firearm safety certification before participation.<\/p>\n
