HOW AM I PROMOTING THE SPORT?

1. Our sport deserves growth. Our league encourages the introduction of new shooters to NSCA events. Teams receive bonus points for a new shooter entered in a registered 5-Stand event.
2. Everyone has something to learn. Teamwork is encouraged during training and practice, teams will accrue bonus points for members whom punch up in class.
3. 5-Stand keeps it real. NSCA 5-Stand events are a great way to ensure scores are as accurate as possible. Even "score your own tournaments" offer a trapper and official scorekeeper at this event.
4. Shoot whenever you want. Team members can shoot on one rotation at one event, or individually at any registered event throughout the month. Any member not registering a monthly score will receive a 5 point deduction for the month.
5. Create a team. Teams may consist of shooters from anywhere in the country. Your virtual dream team may never shoot the same targets, but still becomes a great support system as you master the game.

OBJECTIVES

1. Growth of our sport. Bonus points are awarded to any team who includes a new shooter ( completes a complimentary NSCA membership application at the shoot or competes in Hunter class )
2. Improve your scores. Being part of a team allows for experienced shooters to help those coming up through the classes. Shooters will learn faster and perform better when shooting with shooters who score better than them.
3. Compete as a team for a better chance of winning. Many shooters, no matter their class, feel they don't have a chance to win in a competition. Our league uses class averages and team scores to better your chances of being a winner.
4. Build a squad of friends. Your team will remain in effect for the entire calendar year. Time with each other will allow for friendships to grow. Whether in person at the shoot, or online at www.sportingclaysnation.com your squad can exchange tips, techniques, and stories to improve each others game.
