Scholastic clay target shooting is not only a safe sport but also uniquely inclusive. It doesn't require traditional athletic or physical abilities to excel.

Kansas entered the high school clay target competition scene in 2016 with 29 schools and 321 participants. According to Josh Kroells, state director of the USA Clay Target League in Kansas, the most recent spring season saw a significant increase, with 108 high school teams and approximately 2,200 students participating.
