Additionally, every person registering for a regional championship must have earned a bid by qualifying during the local qualifying phase. Qualifiers will be notified by email if he/she qualifies for the regional level.

• To participate in a regional championship event, every person must have earned a bid by virtue of their performance in the local qualifying round. Everyone that qualifies will be notified by an email that includes information on how to register.

Shooting Times/Schedules

Final schedules will be posted here (in printable, PDF format) no later than one week prior to the event. All competitors need to be prepared to compete on all three days, from 8am until 6pm, each day.

If you do not live within driving distance to the venue, we suggest that you make plans to arrive at your living quarters (hotel, camp ground, RV lot, etc) on the Thursday prior to the event.

In general, we will attempt to schedule each division to shoot in either the morning, afternoon or evening. This is a general rule-of-thumb however, and is subject to change.
