More thoughts on the new NSCA Team USA selection Process

I'm very pleased that the International Committee has listened to input from shooters, and modified the selection process. We  now have a limited number of shoots where competitors can be compared, and a numerical, black and white, transparent method of comparison. This answers most of the complaints that have been leveled at the system in the past. Going forward, for this system to work well, the IC will have to give much thought to the allocation of these selection shoots.

Deciding which clubs get these shoots has been problematic in the past, and this process will just add to the scrutiny. There have been many times in the past when there weren't enough clubs even interested when it came to the FITASC selection shoots. 

Now that the IC has done a great job of modifying the selection process, I would like to see them make the process of selecting the clubs to host the shoots just as well thought out and transparent.

NSCA continues to tweak the TEAM USA selection process,...maybe they have it right .....finally?

Well gang, we have complained, and it looks like they have listened! The international committee of NSCA[ that is the group that manages the TEAM USA process and all international sporting[ English Sporting and FITASC] interests in the USA, has revised, again, the process for making the team. Follow the link below.....

2011Team Selection Process

....now understand, this is the process for selection of the 2011 team. This means that this governs the 2010 shoots that will select the 2011 team. They got it done just in time!

I will post further on this update, but on first blush, it certainly seems to make the situation MUCH better than last year, and all years in the past. Thank you goes out to the International Committee!

Best,

Will
