NSCA Championship Tour, Powered by Winchester

The NSCA Championship Tour, Powered by Winchester consists of five Regional Championships plus the U.S. Open and National Sporting Clays Championship. In years when the World English Sporting Championship is held in the U.S., that event is also part of the NSCA Championship Tour.

Dates for the Regional Championships have been strategically scheduled to minimize the overlapping of other major NSCA tournaments to increase participation at all major championships. The National FITASC Championship is held in conjunction with one of the five Regional Championships.


Winchester Ladies Cup

The Winchester Ladies Cup is a season-long, sporting clays competition designed specifically for ladies who shoot on the NSCA Championship Tour, powered by Winchester. The Winchester Ladies Cup will span the eight NSCA Championship Tour events (the five regional championships, the U.S. Open, the World English Sporting Clays Championship, and the National Sporting Clays Championship) with $5,000 in added payout dollars awarded to the top three all-around female competitors at each event based on the highest cumulative score in the Five-Stand, Main Event and FITASC Event. The all-around champion will receive an additional $2,500, the runner-up will receive $1,500 and all-around third place will receive $1,000.

At the end of the season, the Winchester Ladies Cup trophy and $10,000 will be awarded to the three female shooters with the highest cumulative placements for the entire season. The Ladies Cup trophy and $5,000 will be awarded to the Ladies Cup champion, $3,000 will be awarded to the runner-up, and $2,000 will be awarded for the Ladies Cup third place.

The Winchester Ladies Cup will follow the same calculation process and rules as the Championship Tour.  In the case of ties at a regional event, the Main Event score for that event will be used to determine the winner.
