Sand, gypsum, and limestone are good additives to improve drainage if you have clay soil. Make sure to use coarse sand, since fine sand can lead to hard, compacted soil (sort of like concrete!). Gypsum (calcium sulfate) and lime (calcium carbonate) both help to improve drainage, in addition to providing extra calcium for your soil.
