USA Clay Target League COVID-19 Season UpdateThe USA Clay Target League thanks all of our athletes, parents, coaches, andsponsors for their patience and understanding during these unprecedented times.Due to survey responses and suggestions from high school Head Coaches that participated in a 2020 Modified Season(s)and the current/future uncertainty for federal, state, and school regulations related to COVID-19, the League is announcing aModified 2021 Spring Season that will provide the safest and best opportunity for teams and student athletes to participate.The League is hopeful that it can return to “normal” when COVID-19 concernsand restrictions are minimized as determined by leading health organizations.Modified 2021 Spring Season changes include: Extended team and athlete registration period. Student athlete league registration fee is paid by the athlete at registration. No team payment option is available. Teams can complete weekly events at any time per their discretion prior to the score submission deadline. Year-to-date submitted scores will be published at mid-season and at the end of the season rather than weekly. Registered athletes without firearm safety certification will not be removed from rosters. Athletes will be added to the scoring roster after firearm safety certification is completed. In-person tournaments or a virtual tournament option will be decided at a later date. Fun Squad cancelled. Minimum number of athletes on a conference team has been reduced from 5 to 2.For the most recent information regarding the League’s COVID-19 situation, visit:http://www.usaclaytarget.com/covid19/Policy & Procedure Changes For 2021 Spring SeasonDeletions: Indicated in red and strikethroughChanges/Additions: Indicated in green

Team EligibilityCompeting For Financial GainIn the spirit with which this League was formed, the Leagueencourage all athletes who meet student athlete eligibilityrequirements to be included on a team based on submission ofregistration (first come, first serve) and not by tryouts. Different schools within or adjacent to a school districtmay combine student athletes to form a single team. A minimum of one coach for every 10 team members is required. An unlimited number of student athletes may be on a teamif the athlete-to-coach ratio complies. The number of members on a team will be determined by acombination of coach/student ratio and shooting range capacity.It is important that the Head Coach and the shooting range worktogether to determine the number of students the coaching staffand facility can safely and efficiently accommodate. If additional coaches are required to conform to the coach/student ratio requirements, ask parents or shooting rangemembers to assist with the team. If additional shooting time is needed at the shooting range toaccommodate more members, consider adding an additional dayor extending participation hours. If a shooting range has reached capacity or team size limit isimposed, returning student athletes and seniors should beprovided the first opportunity to participate. Teams may utilize different shooting ranges to accommodatelarger team sizes and/or to reduce travel for participants. Teams may add another clay target sport through the Head Coach.The League promotes participation in clay target sports emphasizingsafety, fun, and marksmanship and does not encourage youthcompetition for a financial benefit.
