Shoot the Wayne Mayes Championship at World

May 11, 2016 By nssaadmin

Wayne Mayes trophy
During this year’s World Skeet Championships, NSSA will offer an all-new event between the Mini World and main event to honor the legendary Wayne Mayes. The Wayne Mayes Championship, scheduled for Monday, October 3, will be a 100-target World Championship event with four rounds of 25 targets each shot in 12, 20, and 28 gauge and .410 bore.

What makes this event so special is that all shooters in every class will be eligible to participate, with awards by class, and winners will be World Champions! In addition to individual awards, a special three-man team event will have randomly-assigned shooters of different classes competing together.

As Mayes’ friend and team partner of many years, Todd Bender, points out, this event is about having fun in a championship event, and no one had more fun shooting skeet and winning championships than Mayes did.

The new event will be sponsored by NSSA. Kolar will provide a newly-designed championship ring and trophy.

You’ll find registration for the Wayne Mayes Championship on the World Shoot registration form.

Clubs: Sign Up for Free Range Safety Officer Course

May 10, 2016 By nssaadmin

CRSONSSA and NSCA are offering member clubs a free staff training course for the first 20 clubs that volunteer to host one of the associations’ newest course offerings, the Club Range Safety Officer (CRSO) Certification Course. 

This one-time opportunity is being offered and fully funded by the NSSA and NSCA to promote the launch of the new Club Range Safety Officer Certification Course. The purpose of the new eight-hour $175 course is to train and certify club staff and volunteers to serve as referees and safety personnel and to serve as ambassadors for our sport when first-time shooters visit host clubs. These courses can be for sporting clays, skeet, or combo (which is encouraged).

To promote the new course and help member clubs enhance staff training, the association is waiving the $175 fee and funding up to 200 scholarships — 10 per club — to the first 20 qualified clubs to host and organize one of the inaugural courses. The course will be taught by active NSSA-NSCA Level II and Level III certified instructors, as approved by the Chief Instructor. 

To be eligible for this special offer, host a funded course, and offer the scholarships, a club must:

1) Complete and submit the simple one-page CRSO Launch Promo Host Application to Glynne Moseley.

2) Be selected / have application approved by NSSA-NSCA.

3) Recruit an absolute minimum of 10 CRSO candidates for the course.

4) Submit the names of the 10 candidates on the application form 21 days prior to the course date.

5) Work with the designated Level II or Level III certifying instructor on the logistics and support required for the course.

6) Provide up to 300 targets and ammo at no charge for use during the course.

The staff of NSSA-NSCA are excited to offer this new course and look forward to increasing the number of qualified referees and safety personnel at our member clubs.

If you have questions, contact Glynne Moseley at gmoseley@nssa-nsca.com, 210-688-3371, ext. 119 or Don Currie, NSCA Chief Instructor, at nsca@doncurrie.com, 407-697-6236.

Kids & Clays Annual Sweeps Winners

December 15, 2015 By nssaadmin

The Kids & Clays Foundation 2015 National Sweepstakes has ended with winners drawn at the recent National Sporting Clays Championship. Proceeds from the sweepstakes and a series of shooting events benefit Ronald McDonald House Charities.

Winners of the more than $36,000 in prizes from Kids & Clays’ generous sponsors are:

1st Prize: Greg Peters, Minneapolis, MN won a Blaser, Kids & Clays custom, hand-engraved 12 gauge shotgun with a 30-in. barrel, wood grade 6, transportation case, barrel weight system, stock balancer set, and 5 Briley spectrum chokes. MSRP: $15,000.

2nd Prize: Steve Napier, North Royalton, OH won a 2015 E-Z-GO Blue Express S4 gas-powered shooting cart with four-person capacity, rear seat that converts to a cargo deck, and powered by a 23hp Kawasaki engine. MSRP: $9,450.

3rd Prize: Roger Oswalt, Butler, OH won a Laser Shot Portable Small Arms Training Hunting Education System complete with computer, projector, speakers, and laser-detecting camera, hunter education software, games, IR laser o/u shotgun, rifle, and handgun. MSRP: $7,900.

4th Prize: Denise Nobles, Cochran, GA won a Lincoln Traps Infinity Series Sporter 320-target trap. Yellow spring, Mobile Sporter Cart, medium mid-magazine cover, 100-foot trap release cord with Bryant single-button. MSRP: $3,500.

5th Prize: Kurt Folkmier, Union, MI won a Winchester Ammunition $1,000 gift certificate. MSRP: $1,000.

I never expected to win a prize in this contest. I was just happy to support the Kids & Clays Foundation and Ronald McDonald Houses through my contribution, said Greg Peters, winner of the Blaser shotgun. This is a huge bonus, and I am very grateful to Kids & Clays as well as Blaser for this really exquisite shotgun.

The contest runs annually, generally kicking off with a promotion at the Shooting, Hunting, and Outdoor Trade (SHOT) Show in January. The sweepstakes is made available to all Ronald McDonald Houses who host shooting events supported by the Kids & Clays Foundation. Those sites will number 20 in 15 states for 2016. The Houses receive all proceeds.

The annual sweepstakes provides vital funds to Ronald McDonald Houses to help critically ill children and their families, said Bill Keyser, president of the Kids & Clays Foundation. It is only possible with the great support of national sponsors who are key to the sweeps success. I would encourage all who want to make a difference to participate in the sweepstakes.

The Kids & Clays Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit association and is the charity of choice for the National Skeet Shooting Association, the National Sporting Clays Association, and the Amateur Trap Association.

For more information about how you and your organization can get involved, visit www.KidsandClays.com or contact Kids & Clays Foundation Executive Director Doug Jeanneret at Doug@KidsandClays.com or 219-874-2100.
