The NSCA Championship Tour, powered by Winchester, consists of seven tournaments in 2025 — the five regional championships, the U.S. Open, and the National Sporting Clays Championship. Awards are given for Open, Lady, Junior, Sub-Junior, Veteran, Super Veteran, Senior Super Veteran, and Legacy categories, and for Master, AA, A, B, C, and D classes.
A shooter’s eligibility for concurrent awards is based on the shooter’s current NSCA classification. A shooter’s eligibility for class awards is based on the shooter’s NSCA class at the beginning of the target year.
The top 10 scores and all ties in each of the 14 categories within the Main, FITASC and 5-Stand events* at each of the Championship Tour events will be awarded points.
* At the National Championship, the K-Kup event will be used in place of the 5-Stand Event.
Points Races are updated after the first event for the year.
