What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?

Scholastic Clay Target Program

The Scholastic Clay Target Program (SCTP) provides kids from elementary grades through high school and college with the opportunity to participate in the fun and challenging sports of Trap, Skeet and Sporting Clays, as well as the Olympic disciplines of Bunker Trap, Trap Doubles and International Skeet. SCTP is the official feeder program to USA Shooting and a path to the U.S. Olympic Shooting Team

Like all the sports SSSF offers, SCTP is designed to instill in young people a set of personal values or character traits for fair play, compassionate understanding, individual responsibility, sportsmanship, self-discipline, and personal commitment. As the sport itself, these qualities will stay with them throughout their lifetimes, helping each young athlete reach his or her full potential.
