HOMESCHOOLERS WELCOME
INTRODUCING THE NEW USA HOMESCHOOL CLAY TARGET LEAGUE
The USA Clay Target League is excited to launch the USA Homeschool
Clay Target League, a new clay target program developed specifically for
homeschool associations, organizations, student athletes, and their families.
"The mission of the USA Clay Target League includes the belief that
all students should have the equal opportunity to participate," said John
Nelson, President of the USA Clay Target League. "Shooting sports
strengthens connections within families and communities for life, and the
demand for organized outdoor activities for homeschooled students has
never been higher."

FLORIDA'S FIRST
MCKEEL ACADEMY OF TECHNOLOGY LEADS THE WAY
FOR SHOOTING SPORTS IN THE SUNSHINE STATE
It's no secret Florida is a football state.
But football isn't for everyone, and everyone can't
play football.
However, Sunshine State students with a desire to learn
and a firearms safety certification can participate in the
Florida State High School Clay Target League, which pro-
vides a safe, comfortable, and positive team environment
for student athletes to compete and learn lifelong skills.
Each time you bust a bird it feels really good.
And everyone is so encouraging in this sport. I've
participated in many other sports and this one is
the best with adults encouraging you. From all the
parents to my coaches, it's so nice. Even when you
aren't shooting your best, they are still happy for you."

We've also had students join who had never
shot a shotgun or ever really handled a
firearm in general. We've taken them in,
coached them up, and turned them into some
great shooters. This sport gives any student a
chance to excel."
