Please Send Your Results MONDAY!

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Updated Scoring Spreadsheet -
AVAILABLE NOW! Click Here to download.
(3.26 mb file - May take a few minutes to download.)

DO NOT USE any spreadsheet previously provided. PLEASE DO NOT USE THE ONE ON THE CLUB CD!!!!!! I apologize for the hassle, but please load this one and delete all others.

Here are some tips to make it easier for you and the CMSA office.

1. Please rename the file for each day’s event as follows – this is a HUGE help! Club code+date+# of points – so an Arizona CMSA event would be AZ2022809x2 (for double points – x1 for single) –now when you save it, you know exactly when that event took place and we do too. Sending a file that says ‘Frozen Toes Saturday’ creates more work researching who, what where. And on your end, 3-5 years from today you won’t know which shoot happened when either if you use a name.
   

2. Verify name and number on cards! INSIST that members show their cards at check-in! It is a rule! And will avoid most name & number errors!
   

3. PLEASE SEND YOUR MATCH RESULTS ON MONDAY! The new points page and website are being built to operate in real time. When your events results are uploaded they go immediately to the website – no delay. It also allows us to get new cards in the mail Tuesday instead of Wednesday or Thursday.
   

4. If you sign new members up at the event who compete- please list them on the spreadsheet as a T-1, T-2, T-3 etc. depending up on how many you have. If they ran as T-1 on the first day of a two day shoot, please make them T-1 on the second day.
   

5. All Temporary’s get designated by class 1, L1, S1, SL1 or Wrangler.
   

6. Also with Temporary members please send with the emailed results the all T-members contact info – We need this to accurately process all new members and get their cards to them faster. If we get this info on Monday with your results in most cases they will have their card mailed no later than Wednesday!

Thank you so much, each and every club president and secretary. You have all been great and the office staff and I stand by ready to help in any way we can.

The CMSA will host a Club Seminar at EVERY one of the Major events this season, except World. Club Presidents, NAB, Scorekeeprs and any club administrators may attend. No charge and come with questions, suggestions and ready to learn.

Thanks for all you do,

CMSA Office

The Match Director is the single representative of a hosting club or association, responsible for all facets of a CMSA match. There is a tremendous amount of work that goes into a WPQ, Grand American, State or Regional match. His/her job starts well before the match begins. This guide can be used as a checklist for Match Directors. Most clubs or associations schedule a number of matches during a calendar year. For the purpose of ease we will follow one match from beginning to end in this guide. Clubs/associations may have one Match Director or may assign a different individual for each match. 

Things you need to know:

As an Affiliated or Charter Club, you may order products from the CMSA Merchandise website & pay for them after your match.  In other words, you may order balloons, ammo, buckles, timers, or other prizes and send the payment in with your match results.

When your Affiliation or Charter is approved, you will receive a CD with everything you need to produce a mounted shooting event and a Promotional DVD.

CMSA Charter Clubs are covered by CMSA’s $1,000,000 general spectator liability insurance policy for $425.00 per year. This coverage is offered through CMSA by The Equestrian Group & will be available to any Charter Club in the United States. Click Here to download the Additional Insurance Request Form.

Affiliated Clubs must provide CMSA with proof of liability insurance.

An Affiliated/Charter Club may host twelve regular World Point Qualifying matches (WPQ) and one Grand American Championship (GAC), which is a double points WPQ.  A Club may petition to hold more sanctioned matches.

Affiliated/Charter clubs agree to follow CMSA rules

Affiliated/Charter clubs must provide a schedule of match dates to CMSA which will be published on the CMSA website.
