Title: Qualifying for New Zealand in 2017
Post by: rpollock on January 03, 2016, 03:52:01 PM: Fellow Shooters,

Here is the process for qualifying for the 2017 World Benchrest Team. There are a few things that each shooter needs to take care of to be eligible for the team:

1. Each shooter needs to declare their intention to enter the qualifying process by the end of February 2016. An email to rickpollock@shaw.ca registering their intention to qualify will be sufficient.
2. Each shooter needs to be a member of both OFAH and BRSC during the qualifying year and the competition year. This is per the World Team meeting in St. Louis in 2015. Contact Vicky Duncan at vicky.duncan@nexicom.net to become a member of both organizations.
3. At the end of 2016 each shooter will be asked to confirm by email if they plan to attend the World Championships in New Zealand.

Note: the qualifying ranking will be in accordance to the previous years format with your rank based upon how many points you have accumulated in the qualifying year. Points are awarded based upon how many shooters you placed above in your (6) best Grand Aggregates (LV, HV, SP) during 2016. There will be a cap of available points in each Grand Aggregate based upon the total # of shooters entered in the 2016 Cactus Classic.

Team selection will be based on this final ranking of accumulated points and shooter availability, with final selection taking place in January, 2017.

We are closing in on the cutoff date of Feb 29th to throw your hat in the ring for the qualifying program to attend the World Championships in New Zealand in 2017. If you have even a passing interest in attending please let me know in advance of this date and make sure you are up to date with your OFA and BRSC memberships.

Currently we have 2 full teams registered for qualifying and part way through the third team.

Many Thanks and I am looking forward to hearing about everyone's exploits on the BR ranges this season.

Take Care,

Rick Pollock

Post by: rpollock on February 09, 2016, 08:42:09 AM: We are now up to 14 shooters registered for the qualifying. Just a reminder to send me a note that you want to be registered for the qualifying program, as anybody counting on open spots after qualifying may be out of luck.

Post by: rpollock on June 26, 2016, 08:58:48 PM: Don't forget the Raw Total is all points accumulated so far, and the Top 6 is what we will ultimately base the final ranking on. The top 6 refers to the highest points accumulated in your 6 best Grand Aggregate finishes in a LV, HV or Sporter.
