Athletes from 25 colleges in 10 states head to Brittany Shooting Park near Bunker Hill, Illinois, for the 2026 USA College Clay Target League National Championship from October 30 to November 1. One hundred eighty-nine competitors will each shoot 100 targets on Saturday after an 8:45 a.m. opening and another 100 on Sunday, with titles based on combined scores.

Friday includes check-in, practice, and Cosmic Clays plus a bonfire. This fall 969 students on 89 teams took part, and the organization requires safety certification while reporting zero injuries since 2001 as a co-ed adaptive activity that schools must approve.
