"Church league basketball" was not new to Erie, Pennsylvania when CLAY - the Christian League of Athletics for Youth - was formed in 2004. A local YMCA had been reaching out to churches as team sponsors for over 40 years when they decided to drop the program. Coaches got together, decided "church league basketball" was worth keeping around, and CLAY was born. Operating as a "club", it was incorporated in 2008 as a part of Right Choice Today, Inc. Since that time, "church league basketball" has blossomed into the one of the largest youth sports programs in the area, reaching nearly 800 youth in its most recent season.
Plans are under way to offer CLAY to other communities starting in 2012. Other sports, including flag football, softball, bowling and volleyball are under consideration.
