Midway USA Foundation Hometown Challenge - September Only!


Participation in heritage shooting sports like clay target shooting makes a positive impact on the lives of our youth athletes.  They learn crucial life skills like perseverance, confidence, and respect for themselves and others.  Mastery of these life skills through involvement with Tampa Bay Clays youth team lasts long after their last competition.  It changes their lives and the lives of those they influence.


The cost of learning these skills can be steep.  Equipment, targets, ammunition, and travel costs add up quickly.  Tampa Bay Clays strives to ensure these costs do not prohibit anyone from participation.  One of the ways it does this is through association with the Midway USA Foundation.  This Foundation awards annual cash grants to the team through its endowment fund.  The Foundation is hosting its annual Hometown Challenge to benefits teams like us and permit us to support youth athletes. 


Throughout the month of September, every $20 donation is an entry into the Foundation's multi-prize sweepstakes. Donate as much as you like to increase your chances of winning! For example, a $100 donation to Tampa Bay Clays gives you 5 sweepstakes entries. Prizes include coolers, gift cards, ammo, firearms, glasses, and more! Additionally, the youth shooting teams that receive the most donations in September can win endowment funds, and all teams that receive a contribution during HTC are entered into a drawing to win $1,000!


Please help us by making a donation to the Midway USA Foundation on behalf of Tampa Bay ClaysOur Team ID is R66360.  Your belief in our team will make a difference in the lives of our athletes and the people around them. 



Life Skills

While training with a team and competing at various matches with a team, young shooters will develop life lessons like winning, failing, and problem solving, all while allowing them to become a better team player and eventually a mentor themselves.

Safe and Productive
