Lead the THE PEOPLE AND PLACES THAT SHAPE THE USA CLAY TARGET LEAGUE T he season is underway for 39,069 student athletes participating in USA Clay Target League (USACTL) programs this spring. Those athletes are competing on 1,973 high school, college, and homeschool teams nationwide, supported by over 11,200 coaches, team staff, and other volunteers. This is the 30th consecutive season of record-breaking participation since the League was founded in 2008. "The League provides schools with the opportunity to give their students a place to develop their confidence, sportsmanship, and teamwork without the high costs and limited playing opportunities of traditional sports," said John Nelson, President of the USACTL. "Clay target shooting sports are accessible to everyone, and the opportunity to participate on their school's team influences athlete's lives for the better. "This spring over 9,000 new athletes joined the League through their school's teams, thanks to the efforts of the shooting ranges, coaches, and parents that make teams flourish."
